Great tutorial Blake! One thing I feel it’s helpful to mention though; it’s really important to put your Rec709 conversion node after all of your color correction nodes. So all your adjustments like exposure, white balance, contrast, HSL adjustments, etc. all of that should come before your Rec709 conversion. If you do the Rec709 node first you’re basically throwing away all that dynamic range from the LOG image. You can still grade with that conversion turned on, you just want to make sure it’s placed towards the end of the node tree.
Does this also apply in Premiere? I forget what happened but sometimes notice the order of stuff removed dynamic range until I rearranged things. Hoping to move from Premiere's color grading eventually here though!
@@zapsizzleyou can try for yourself. Short answer in my experience is yes it matters. But longer answer is maybe not as much depending on the effects. Add a lumetri effect with your lut only and then another where you actually change parameters and then place one on top of the other and then switch. You’ll see there’s a difference there, but depending on how intense, it may not be that much
@@zapsizzle I’m not really sure to be honest. I know the order of your effects does matter. But if you’re doing all your grading inside 1 Lumetri effect I don’t think it matters.
Wow, this video is really helpful! Thanks you guys! I have a questions tho... is there a way to batch edit? or to apply a rec709 and the out to all of the clips and then tweak them one by one? Thank you guys
Absolutely! If you hold down shift and hit the minus key (-) it will copy the color grade from the previous clip. You can also create a still by right clicking on the program monitor and clicking 'Grab Still.' Then you just select all the clips you want to apply the grade to, right click and select 'Apply Grade.' Hope that helps! Thanks for watching! -Blake
One of the best things you can do is create a powergrade! So you'll have a "preset" node structure built out, and then it can be a "preset" (powergrade) that you can just drop onto any clip, and then copy and paste it like they mentioned! For example, my preset powergrade has my entire node structure built out, all of my looks built, all of my desharpening, all of my highlight compression etc - things that I do to every clip, without having to manually do it every single clip!
Hello Sir, I'm a video editor with years of experience. I need a device for video editing. my old PC is not good this time. Please give me advice on how to buy a Book Pro M1 2020 and a PC whose specifications are RTX 3060 and Ryzen 5 5600x ???
Felt like Bob Ross making this one!
I needed this ❤

Amazing! Love this!@@richardnayfilms2812
I've done this once before but when I tried to do this again, davinci suddenly cant find other clips that are imported from premiere pro ;((
