Nice Teaser, John. ;-) As you mentioned at the end of the video, the FCP Colorgrading Masterclass is the game changer for everyone who would like to dive into this topic. No matter if it's just for the basics or the workflows that separates the beginners from the pros. Almost finsihed the chapter color correction and cant wait to learn the secrets about color grading in the upcoming sections of the course. Wish I had known that all earlier. Keep up the good work !
Hey Christoph! You can call me Dylan. John is my middle name 😉 Thanks so much for sharing your experience! I'm beyond thrilled that you're loving the course 👊🏼
@@dylanjohndickerson Damn, too early here. Sorry Dylan. How embarrissing. Should'nt watch videos before I start working. Or I need more coffee. Gosh, I am sorry. I take my coat. ;-)
I wonder if in future versions of FCP, that if they could change the way the camera LUT in the inspector tab handles the footage... So when you change it in the inspector, any corrections like wheels and curves were always before the Camera LUT in the inspector. This would be great.
I see these video titles and claims all the time..... BUT WOW EVERYONE, this video is a MUST watch and goes in my top 2 in regards to video. Even if you are not a FCP user the tips he gives are Legit core building blocks, to use as we learn and grow. And if you do use FCP he shows things I have NEVER SEEN , and I have watched a lot of FCP videos , even from super reputable channels, and I have never seen at least 3 of these anywhere. Thanks BRO!!! LSC
And I'd suggest color balancing before your Rec 709 transform as well. I go over this and other LOG tips in my course. www.fcpcolorgradingmasterclass.com
Great video as always. Ignoring those worthless temp/tint sliders in FCPX is the single biggest thing that improved color in my work. I actually do what I call "bookend balancing" balancing the highlights and the shadows independently. Thanks for getting to the point, not constantly hyping yourself or your offerings, and presenting really solid info. Rave on!
Bro I discovered your channel last night and can’t get enough of it. Thanks bro. That timeline 69 seconds cut and edited video is sick so I subscribed 😊
Really enjoying these videos. You always lace us with such great tips and knowledge regarding FCP and color. I really appreciate it. At 4:25 I found this section very interesting and would love to know if you could do a video on this portion e.g. converting log footage to rec 709 camera lut. I saw a few videos that said this was a good thing and or should be done first but watching your video gives a different perspective. This is an area in which I have struggled and would love to know more. Could you do a video on that or do you happen to go more in-depth in the masterclass?
Hey Tony! Thanks for the kind words man 🙏🏼 Yes I go WAY more in depth in the Masterclass. I think you'd really love it as it sounds right up your alley, especially because you grade LOG footage. I'll put the link below, but no pressure. www.fcpcolorgradingmasterclass.com
@@dylanjohndickerson Thank you. I was looking at the class and I am thinking about doing it. It would be good to learn more about the C-log 3 conversion to rec 709. I have searched and searched and I can't find much info about that area in FCP. Not too many people discuss the settings and camera lut section. If you go over that in the masterclass then it definitely might be worth taking (on top of all the other great info you will be teaching/going over).
@@dylanjohndickerson The million dollar question. Are the Masterclass videos broadcast on TH-cam? I ask because, only TH-cam allows subtitles with translation so I can reach 80% understanding.
We Brazilian videographers love you Dylan. our barrier unfortunately is language. Brazil speaks Portuguese BR. The TH-cam translation is not 100% perfect, but we can understand your videos with the translated subtitles and comparing them with the action in the video. We're dying to buy MasterClass. If you find any alternative, don't hesitate to let us know. Thank you and congratulations, we have no doubt that the course content is of excellent quality. the 50% discount on the CFP is insane....lucky whoever buys it. Congratulations, you deserve every success.@@dylanjohndickerson
Your videos are reliably saturated with useful information & techniques. You keep a focus on the topic and corresponding FCP tool screen to simultaneously inform and instruct.
Thanks so much for saying that, James 😊 I’m glad you’re enjoying them. If you’re curious to dive deeper into color correction and grading, check out the course I just released. Sounds like you’d love it 👍 Https://www.fcpcolorgradingmasterclass.com
Question: Did you have to download the SLog 3 camera LUT in order to load it into the Custom LUT effect in the effects browser? Hopefully that made sense lol Awesome tutorial
I did but you can also find where you the defaults are in your computer but navigating to the Lut window in the inspector and clicking show in finder. You can copy them from there or download them directly from the camera manufacturer.
Oftentimes, I got blown out details, especially on the skin. So I normally pull down Gain and some Gamma. But doing so make my overall video looks dark. How do you propose I solve this?
That range check does not work for me for some reason? I had a Logo in the timeline, just a png and it works on that, but when I click on my video clip below and WAY over expose my clip there are no warnings? Am I missing something? I even clicked on the logo and hid it just in case and still nothing, but if I turn on the logo above my clip it does show the range with Zebras? Any suggestions?
@@dylanjohndickerson Hey thanks for answering, Yes, Sony A7IV Clips with LUT or grade on them FCPX when I select that range nothing happens..weird... But my text layer which is on top does show the range in the white text as overdosed, but not on my video clips... Even tried deleting the text or PNG logo I have stacked but still does not work... Thanks for any help... Seems like a helpful tool no doubt.
What does you have going on in the layers panel though? If you could, shoot me an email with a screenshot or screen record: hello@fcpcolorgradingmasterclass.com @@ericknorpp8238
Hi my name is Wil Harris and I’ve found myself guilty of committing flagrant #9s. My clip count is in the double digits and I’m not proud. Thank you for this safe space 😢

You're very welcome 😊 thanks for watching!
Killer Job, keep it up!
Thanks, my friend!
Great video. I’ve learnt most of these thing before, but somehow you tend to forget. This was a perfect reminder😊👍
Sometimes those reminder videos are just what's needed. Glad I could assist 😊
The skin explanation is gold! Thanks Dylan ❤
No problemo, brotha 👊🏼 thanks for letting me know it helped out.
😊have you tested the new MotionVFX Rotoai? I bought keeper like 10 days ago and Im not a huge fan. Is the MVFX any better?
Thank you very much for sharing these teachings.
a question.
Can I apply these tips to Color Finale Pro?
Yes definitely, except some things change slightly. Give my course a look. It fully covers CF2 Pro as well 👌🏼 www.fcpcolorgradingmasterclass.com
@@dylanjohndickerson The million dollar question.
Are the Masterclass videos broadcast on TH-cam?
I ask because, only TH-cam allows subtitles with translation so I can reach 80% understanding.
Ahhhh I see. They are not unfortunately. What language do you speak?@@marvideos2007
