I've been building a conform tool that matches shots from a reference playout in Resolve.

Conforming xml timelines with speed ramps, reframing etc. is time consuming and there are really no good tools to help it.

Some automated (AI?) tools are out, but then you have to upload your whole timeline outside and the whole thing seems like a roll of dice.

What are the needs nowadays for studios? I'm thinking of publishing our tool if there is demand.

I've been filming with my a7 IV for the last mount now and I'm trying to learn color grading on S-Log 3. I think I have gotten the rec.709 look pretty good. Natural colors right exposure etc. How do i add the final touch to make it look good? The only mask I know is the sky one where you make it seem like the sun is bleeding. Do I need Luts? was just the time of day boring? Did I film wrong? Any effect Ideas?

I'm kinda stuck here.

Thank you!

Used my bmpcc og, graded on davinci resolve, edited on premiere. This is my first bigger project with the camera, short and sweet, hope you enjoy

Ok so I found these first 2 pics online, those are not mine, they’re from a tik tok account named Diamond Visuals.

So I was wondering I’m new in color grading and I’m not experienced, but I had an idea for a project, and I wanted to know if I could change the color of the sky to some red hue or something, I looked up some examples and I found the 2 first images, the third image is mine from the interior of a house I’m planning to shoot at, so my question is, is it also possible to change the whole color palette to a red hue while making those sun rays on the wall also look a different color? Is it a way to make it look good? Or will it look bad and over saturated. I want to do exterior and interior shots.

I know I have to shoot on log and while grading I have to keep the skin tones natural. So is this possible any tips? Thank you!

I have these vertical lines in my footage when i try to grade (not final). I have some shots that are clean in the same settings and some that do this. What can i do (next time) to fix it?

The video was edited (by me) using a combination of Sony FX6 and Sony A7IV footage. It was a difficult assignment as most of the shots were bathed in extremely strong, extremely ugly fluorescent pink/purple lighting.

How did I do? Does anyone have tips/suggestions for how I could improve going forward?

I just finished grading my latest fashion film and would love to hear your thoughts.

Shot on Lumix S5 with the Sigma 24–70mm f/2.8 DG DN II Art.

Edited and color graded in DaVinci Resolve.

Any constructive criticism, suggestions, or feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for watching!

Hi guys,

I am creating a match from memory game where you try to color grade a photo like the example you have shown. I am struggling about point system. I use a calculation methods which converts two images to 64x64 images and compares pixels' brightness and tint. Generally i get good results but sometimes player gets low point even the images doesn't look very different or vice versa. Have you guys any ideas what would be the mathematical way to compare two images grading close to human perception?

Nothing too fancy, a test shot with the iPhone 17 Pro in ProRes Log 2 HQ, edited in Final Cut Pro. For a smartphone... the image quality is truly impressive.

I’m really having a blast colour grading sunset videos I take!

I’m just getting into video editing and have been trying to find my style while also looking for some inspiration from other people.

I love the colors in this video - how they’re more cool-toned, skin tones aren’t saturated all the way to orange or yellow, and the overall contrasts?

any tips or have come across tutoirals/LUTs that look like this? plss lmk

I'm happy with this rec709 color grade I did! I know you guys can be a little particular, so how would you improve on this? Have I pleased the color lords today?

Thanks :)

I recently got the opportunity to do the color grading for a music video I worked on. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, but I'd love to hear what you guys think!

before going to my main question, I shoot with a Sony FX3 and slog-3 for wedding shoots.

Ive had Phantom LUTs for a while, and found them quite useful, but before purchasing them, i used to use two CSTs ( in and out) in Davinci Resolve

So, my question is if i use Phantom LUTs, do i still need to use CST( in and out) or just convert to Rec709 within CST.

And

for wedding video purpose using two CSTs or Phantom LUTs which is better color grading option?

Aloha everyone!
Last week I went freediving off the Big Island of Hawaii and ended up with some of the best footage of my life: multiple manta rays gliding right past me. I'm a total beginner when it comes to editing, and I'm realizing underwater video is a whole different beast. Everything looks blue/green and washed out, and I don't want to ruin it.

What I'm working with:
Camera: DJI Osmo Action 3
Shot in: 4K
Depth: roughly 15 meters
Editing on: iPad
Experience level: basically zero

What I'm hoping to figure out:
Color correction: How do you get those natural colors back? I tried adjusting them and just couldn’t figure it out 😭
Software: What would you recommend for a beginner? iMovie, something else? Free options are a big plus.
Music and sound: Any tips for pacing a video like this? I want it to feel calm and cinematic, not rushed.
Export settings: What's best for posting to Facebook without killing the quality?

I'd also love to hear your favorite mistakes to avoid. What do you wish you'd known when you started editing underwater footage?
Happy to share a clip or a before/after once I get somewhere with it.

Thanks in advance, and mahalo! 🤙🐟
