quick question: when u render your videos from premiere, do your colors get washed out ? i noticed that with mac users premiere doesnt render exact colors from how it looks in premiere. i was wondering if you've found a way around that for your coloring to stay as accurate to in premiere as possible? btw this was a great video! will def be trying it out
so this is a common problem. you need to color manage your footage. here is a good resource to fix the problem: visual-tone.com/2020/08/11/how-to-fix-washed-out-colour-after-premiere-pro-export/ (you might need to copy and paste in browser)
@@Trentorials ah thank u so much! i checked it out and tried to download the lut it provides on thr website but it seems the link has expired or something. it doesnt seem to be working. is there any other link to that lut? if not, then i still rlly appreaciate all your help in this
Glad I could help! Keep in mind though, as I said, it isn't a fully proper or professional workflow. I am not a colorist and thus I would recommend learning from a few other sources! This tutorial is strictly what I do, it could be wrong!
That’s awesome to hear you say that: if there are any other things you want to learn I love making content that directly helps someone from the comments, be sure to me know!
@@jalil.nazarli I’m glad you found the video helpful. I actually just remade a new video. Which hasn’t been released yet, covering every little intricacy of color grading in Premiere Pro which I believe is a lot better than this video. You’re more than welcome to check that out when it’s released, and thanks again for your support on this video.
Happy to help! remember to take info from a variety of sources to find out the most accurate info on color grading, there is some info in this video I have changed my opinion on so I wanna make sure you get the most accurate info.
Hello, how do I set the camera and how do I set Premier Pro so that after recording in log format, all clips after editing and adding LUT have the same color even though they were recorded at different time intervals (for example, one clip was recorded at 11 and the next at 16 or on one the sun was behind the clouds and on the other it wasn't)
You can’t change lighting with color grading; that’s something you have to plan for before filming. Focus on keeping your exposure and white balance the same, and keeping your camera at its native ISO
@@Trentorials So I understand that if I set the time to ss50 at noon, I have to keep it all the time and when changing the outlet, give a white standard? And what does it mean that the native ISO should be set in a certain range? I always set everything manually, ISO, time, aperture, and the use is regulated by ISO
@@Frapop what do you meaning by time? Like the time code? Look up what native ISO is. It’s an important step in the process of correctly exposing your shot. In regards to time, again I don’t know what you mean, but they only three things you should worry about is the aperture, shutter, speed, and ISO. If you get all three of those correct, you get the proper exposure you need (for hobbyist work, at least) and then knowing what color space and profile you’re shooting in will allow you to find a conversion LUT that works well for your footage. Basing off of your first comment, it seems like you’re talking about how you shot something at different times a day. Which again, would be a change in your lighting, which will affect the way color looks.
@@Trentorials When I say time, I mean shutter speed. And should I set a constant balance in the camera? Should I set the temperature to 3500, and keep it constant?
@@Frapop white balance depends on your writing. You have to determine what it is. Before shooting and log, I would suggest warning how to use your camera properly, but understanding how to set your shutter speed in white balance, and why you do so. a lot of this is not up to opinion, but it’s based on other settings in your camera. Always double the frame rate, for your shutter speed, so if you’re shooting 30 FPS, choose the closest shutter speed to 60 that your camera has. White balanced depends on the lighting; so if you don’t know how to set your white balance, set it to auto
The footage still needs to have some contrast otherwise it’s left feeling super flat. Unless of course, you want your footage to look flat, in which case, that will work.
How about color grading a clip that has different scenes? Let's say you're panning with a drone in a circle. You start with the sun behind you and you end looking at the sun side. Color grading or should I say fixing the highs and lows would be different for each part of the clip, right? How do you do that?
Expose for the mid tone in that case. Without playing with the clip myself, it’s hard to say but I would definitely find a midtone and try to expose for that. But always try your best, in camera, to expose for the highlights if possible. Just don’t crush your shadows too much!
Nice. This is just my workflow. I do need to improve it, and be better at coloring myself, but I figured I’d share it if I could help someone with at least a bit of a jump start. Glad you found it well.
I appreciate the kind words, I personally feel that this quality of audio is not that great, but I am currently use a DJI mic, and at the time of this video, I don't think I had one. I think I use my phone. That said, I would be happy to make a video on my audio mastering, since that was a thing that took me a long time to figure out
Hey Man great tutorial but I'm halfway watching this but seems like I'm feeling a bit sleepy atm as it's 1am I'll probably continue colour grading it tomorrow 😂 but here's a question, what's the font you use with the yellow texts?
the first shot looks quite noisy though especially with the whites and black taken to the extreme. Even the shot where you're talking to camera is quite noisy
That’s the lighting in the room and my camera quality at the time. Unfortunately no matter who color grades that, you can’t get rid of the noise in that shot. However, I would say this is an outdated video, and that is why I have remade it! Thanks for checking it out either way though!
I suppose it really depends on the shot. It the shot has a lot of cyan in a certain section it will lean towards that more. I’m not the worlds, best, colorist, and truthfully, I’m updating this video right now for next Wednesday’s post, I’ve learned some more stuff since that point, and I want to share it
@@Trentorials new one is lot better! However, I would use the color curves when color correcting to truly neutralize your image before slapping the grade on. You can see in which direction you need to bring shadows/highlights in the luma scopes
valid point, thanks for your advice. honestly I am a not a huge fan of canons color sciene and color grading at this point for me is such a headache I cut corners far too often lol. but always looking for an easier way to do things if you have references to learn from.

Glad it was helpful! Remember, this is just my method, I’m not saying it’s the correct one. Use it with wisdom.
@@TrentorialsI surely will. Thanks!
Fantastic. Thank you so much!
Of course! Thanks for checking the channel out
Thank you
I think we don't add that contrast outdoor because actually we don't see that blacks in sunlight
And indoor we add blacks
The footage still needs to have some contrast otherwise it’s left feeling super flat. Unless of course, you want your footage to look flat, in which case, that will work.
How about color grading a clip that has different scenes? Let's say you're panning with a drone in a circle. You start with the sun behind you and you end looking at the sun side.

can u plz give me the font name that u use and thanks great video
The font is Mikela. Best font I’ve ever found

you are amazing
Be sure to learn from other creators also! I’m still in my journey, and know only so much. Though I thank you for this very kind comment.
thanks for the video , please whats the name of your text font
It’s called Mikela!
Bro how does your sound sounds so good any idea for voiceovers

Its called mikela, my Q&A video on the channel has a download link
@@Trentorials aight thanks mate! Greatly appreciated.
Does the kodaks in premiere pro come with the software or do you have to pay for them
They come with premiere
the first shot looks quite noisy though especially with the whites and black taken to the extreme. Even the shot where you're talking to camera is quite noisy

thanks bro youre amazing can you gimme the name of the font in the intro
Thank you for your support. The font is called Mikela.
thank you trent@@Trentorials
how to correct white balance if the footage doesnt have a white color or skin tone? thanks for answer
at that point id say you will have to just eyeball it.
Thanks
Thank you for watching.
you are appreciated.
Thanks for that! Same to you. Thanks for watching
May I know what font you're using? Thanks!
It’s called Mikela
@@Trentorials Thank you so much!
@ absolutely man!
can you mention the name of the font used in this video?
The font is Mikela
Btw which fonts did you used in this tutorial 👀
The font is called Mikela, I have a link in a few videos, including my Q&A
does this work if your camera does not have a log feature?
You can still color grade a bit but generally speaking if you want full control on color and lighting, you need to shoot log
broo that cy in that vectorscope hurts.... is it alright to leave it like that?
I suppose it really depends on the shot. It the shot has a lot of cyan in a certain section it will lean towards that more.
I’m not the worlds, best, colorist, and truthfully, I’m updating this video right now for next Wednesday’s post, I’ve learned some more stuff since that point, and I want to share it

mikela!
trent u slay
Haha. Thank you? Glad you liked the video, I have my personal issues with this video I made so I plan to make a better version soon
What font was used in this video?
I actually just posted short on this!
Your eyes 👁👄 👁
are so beautiful
Haha. Thank you so much!
font
Check the short!
I suggest you buy a 🎙️ mic
Haha. I have bought one and there is also an improved video on this because of that!
I think u can hear him clearly
nah that ain't a proper grade man
Just the way I do it brother. Not claiming expertise! In fact I made an updated video on this topic since I felt this video wasn’t good enougu
@@Trentorials new one is lot better! However, I would use the color curves when color correcting to truly neutralize your image before slapping the grade on. You can see in which direction you need to bring shadows/highlights in the luma scopes
