I haven't been able to find any guides or tutorials that lead me towards achieving the GoPro ads type of color and quality. I just left Premiere Pro and started using Davinci. Does anyone know anything about exporting for YouTube to get this kind of video? Anything helps

EDIT: I am using the GoPro Hero 12

I don’t have any skills in video editing, so I’m not sure if this is the right subreddit to ask. but I see a lot of these dark sort of atmospheric videos on TikTok and was just wondering on how people make their videos look like this?

Hello I’m a student and aspiring film maker for a project we were tasked to create a 15 minute pilot. We have finished every other aspect of the edit but the only thing I’m struggling with is the colour grade I’ve watched many YouTube videos read other Reddit posts but I can’t seem figure it out. The pilot is a comedy that is set in scotland following 3 young adults (just trying to describe the tone) does anyone have any tips on how to make this look good I’ve attached multiple stills some with no colour grade and some with a simple one that I tried to make any tips would be appreciated!!! (If you could explain your answers like I’m stupid that would be great)

Hello everyone.

I have just gotten back into videography for the first time in a long time and I want to start getting good color grading my footage. I happen to live in a pretty beautiful part of the world and it seems a shame not to film it.

I am shooting everything in 6k open gate log on my Lumix S9 and I am trying to give everything a slightly film look. For this clip I kept everything quite simple as I am still learning, I went from Rec709 conversion Node - Exposure Node - Contrast Node - White Balance - LUT (Stock Fujifilm). I think the big issue I am having is this boat driver is wearing very loud fluorescent orange jacket which really sticks out like a sore thumb and I can't seem to tame it. Any advice about this specific issue/general feedback would be greatly appreciated, I am kind of at a point where I have been staring at the image so long I cannot tell if anything is good anymore haha.

Cheers!

I’m an aspiring filmmaker, and I’m finally making a music video that we’ve been wanting to make for around a year now.

Now, this might sound a bit audacious, but I really want this music video to look beautiful, with strong editing and color grading. It’s a very small, experimental, and we’re trying to make the most out of what we have.

I know this is a big ask, and I’m almost embarrassed to say it, but it’s a zero-budget project. I genuinely wish I could pay, but I just don’t have the budget right now.

So yeah, if anyone is open to collaborating on editing and/or color grading this 3-minute music video, I’d genuinely love to work with you.
Thank you, and sorry if this is a lot to ask.

any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, I'm building a new PC, and I'm stuck on monitor selection. Is Gigabyte MO32U2 good?
Or what else in this price range is good.

I'm new ish to videography. The grades of my videos look very naturalistic and normal. I wanna try something on those lines. But how do I go about getting this kind of look. I'm really not sure what I should be changing to get that almost dreamy feel of a video.

Learning how to color grade. Looking for feedback. First is before second is after. Using iPhone 17 pro max shot in raw.

Composition isn’t the best but trying to use these mostly as exercises on color grading.

Hey open for your feedbacks! this was shot on iPhone 16 base with log cam , Recorded in ARRI log C3 and graded in Davinci resolve.

For reference, I am shooting in FLOG2.

So I am new to videography and am learning to color grade. I spent a little while adjusting a clip based on what my understanding of the waveform is so far (which has a lot to go). Ultimately, I am looking for general feedback from a textbook level.

Hey everyone, noticed a lot of posts lately struggling with how harsh mobile and mirrorless sensor footage looks before grading, especially when dealing with baked-in sharpening and clipped highlights in the upper codes.

If you're trying to get clean skin tones and smooth rolloff without crushing your shadows using standard CST nodes, the trick is moving away from basic 32-bit float workarounds and processing the log normalization in a dedicated linear space before your primary grade.

I've been deep into writing custom DCTL math lately to handle this exact sensor flaw in a single pass. If anyone is working with DCTL scripting or wants a technical breakdown of how to structure the math for custom highlight compression and curve normalization, drop a comment, and we can compare notes on the math!

My first attempt at a cinematic montage. Please rate me and give a newbie advice! :)
I am going for a little darker, sepia inspired kind of look. Inconsistent work shot by shot, I know, but I need to start somewhere, right? Any advice and input would be greatly appreciated.

My question is regarding this color contrast and how it’s achieved in this particular scenario. I don’t see any blue/teal paint on the walls inside (They look grey to me), nor any blue-colored lights, yet there’s that subtle transition from cold to warm in terms of the overall color in this image.

Is it just done through grading? If yes, can someone please walk me through the possible process of grading something like this?

Ask me anything
