three years later and this is still one of the best tutorial on skintones...awesome.
This is *THE BEST TUTORIAL* I have ever seen! Thanks a bunch.
When I checked your sub count vs. the views I was hopeful. When I reached the layer mixer for the skin tones I realised why. Having watched hundreds of hours on colour correction/grading and attaining a god damn MA in Film production, this video is where it finally clicked.
I smiled when you thanked people for crossing 1000 subscribers. I am watching it in 2020. Right now you have 53K subscribers.
I have been grading for several years now. I have similar techniques but I have to say that I very much like your approach to skin tones. I will definitely be taking on a few of your ideas. Great Job.
This is really really well done. Thank you.
Outside of the official BMD grading tutorial, this has been the most helpful Resolve tutorial I have watched. Thank you!
Dude, this is incredible. Not just a 'how to create a look' tutorial that doesn't necessarily transfer, but basically a detailed insight into the grading process from a workflow perspective. Stoked with this! Cheers for sharing!
I'VE WATCHED A LOT OF THESE VIDEOS AND THIS IS THE GREATEST COLOR GRADING VIDEO ON TH-cam!
Honestly Avery this is my favourite tutorial on Davinci resolve so far. Didn't understand high range/low range before but thank goodness I came across this video. Keep up the good work!
One of the best tutorials on color I've seen ever. I've watched this about a dozen times. Brilliant.
This is an incredible tutorial. So clear, concise and in a really easy to follow format. Thanks for taking the time to make and share this tutorial and that final grade looks phenomenal!
Seriously my spine was tingling in excitment on how clear and quick this video was. Thanks Avery! Who need's luts, packs, etc? A well-explained episode like this can last a lifetime.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
100% agree. Oh dear God, this is so clever 👊
These might be the best Resolve-tutorials I've seen so far on TH-cam. Can't wait to see more Shoot & Grade stuff, as well as tips like these! Thank you!
Defiant Films Thank you! Next Shoot and Grade will be a lot of fun!
Totally agree. Straight forward, great result with this workflow and a clear voice for explanation!
i agree there is literally no final cut or premiere grading tutorial this detailed
Great tutorial
This is it indeed🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
You have by far the best tutorials on youtube for color grading. I always just threw a lut on my log footage and fixed exposure to my liking. But you're teaching me what I'm doing wrong and the correct way to do it. Not only that, but you're teaching me how to think like a colorist as well. When you start learning the art of coloring footage it becomes quit a beautiful process. Before it was something I used to dread. You've entirely changed the way I view color grading for the better. No more creative luts for me. I'm going to control the image to my creative liking now. Thank you so much man. Your tutorials have ignited a knew passion and appreciation for coloring within me that I didn't know I had.
This has opened my eyes to the power of DeVinci Resolve! Thank you and I hope you continue to post more videos of your amazing workflow!
Great tutorial! You did a excellent job of communicating a complex topic.
Thank you!
That is a Great workflow...Nice!
I took courses for color grading. Paid for em. This is far superior!!! thanks a million brother!!!
Right...
This is a fantastic guide. I've seen countless tutorials for skintones in the past but none come close to being as insightful as this. Keep it up man. Thank you!
I keep watching this again and again as I work. Thank you Avery Peck. Best tutorials I've ever seen, and I've searched far and wide.
Finally I got this! Before, I was color grading like a blind guy in a mine. I learned a lot here. Thank you for this very well made video. Great work, keep it up!
Really well done and so clear with no extra chatter. I tweeted it out, hopefully you'll get a few more subs.
Thanks Brandon; I appreciate it!
Thanks Brandon...found this Channel because of your Tweet and fell in love with the tips :D
wow. Brandon Li is here.
Brandon Li Brandon, did you switch to Resolve?
Now I know I'm in the right place.
This has to be the best tutorial on color grading I have ever watched. I will be re-watching it many times as I put these techniques to work. Outstanding!
Man. Thank you. I've spent hours messing around with footage. Most of my videos look like crap, but they'll definitely be improving. You made this incredibly simple.
Been waiting for a content like this. Thanks a lot.
Holy... This man knows, what he's doing!
Your videos are so helpful and crystal clear to understand. Not only the workflow you’re using but also the technical aspects and the reasons why you grade the way you do. Great job! Keep up with it :)
I have watched a couple of hours of footage on skin tone tutorials but these 12 minutes is what was needed! All the best
solid! thank you for this!
Thanks dude! Glad you liked it!
Kolder 😘😘😘
From watching countless color grading videos, I am convinced you are the only one on TH-cam that knows what he’s doing. Please come back and enlighten us with your knowledge 🙃 I’ve watched every single one of your videos and have learned so much in just one week!!
Thank you Sy! I plan on coming back soon!!
Avery Peck I didn’t expect a quick reply!! We all misseyah Avery! ❤️
By far my favorite channel on Resolve. Masterfully communicated while striking the perfect balance of conciseness and detail when needed. I’m hoping you develop a full course on Resolve - I would buy in immediately....
Best resolve tutorials on TH-cam! I keep coming back for more and saving your videos to a playlist for my friends to watch. Keep it up!
the Andrew Kramer of Resolve!
true
Happy to find you channel. :-) Great conten.
I never comment on videos but just had to say that this is a tutorial I come back to over and over again! Always helps me shake rust off and get a refresher. Thanks Avery! Keep killin it 🤙
This is the 5th resolve color grading tutorial I've watch and the only one that I feel I actually learned anything from. You got a new Sub for life bro
I like quality content like this, 💥
Just out of curiosity, why is it that you add saturation back into the image using the RGB Mixer as opposed to just turning up the saturation?
I've watched endless skin and colour grading tutorials since first saw this one, and it remains the best I've seen so far.
You're the best colorist i've ever seen on youtube, you're so detailed, informating, and you're a talented guy!
Thank's man!
When you layered the skin tones back in with the grade I was like "whoah!" Great video, thank you! But next time, drop the music when the actual tutorial begins please :)
I'm with Morten - the musak is a serious distraction as we try to concentrate on content. This is a lesson - we need focus.
@@unwindingskies No fk that! The music was GOOD
I want to watch it every day till it sticks !!!
so much joy watching your tutorials, i seriously applause your work after every time i watch it, COME BACK MORE FREQUENTLY
this is, hands down, the best color tutorial ive seen on da vinci, and ive seen a lot this last 15 days. You know what you do and know how to teach it VERY well. THANK YOU
Nice tutorial!
Because of your videos I just downloaded davinci resolve :D
Where did you learn this stuff? :P
Malte Thanks man! I'm self taught; started learning film about 7-8 years ago. Most of the learning process was slowly gaining knowledge online and trying to replicate other artists to learn their strategies. Personally, I think it's one of the fastest ways to learn, since it forces you to problem solve. Most of learning Resolve is developing your visual and creative skills; the technical stuff will come naturally along the way!
Thanks! Ok, I am learning online for one year now :-) Do you have any tips? From which artists do I learn the most?
Pick any artist you like really; each artist offers their own style, and along with that comes a workflow to create that style. Fincher is one of my favorites personally. The ultimate goal is to take what's in your head, and know how to put that on the screen. So if there's someone already out there creating imagery that speaks to you, do everything you can to figure out how they create it. Behind the scenes footage, interviews, stills from their films (you can head over to filmgrab . com), etc. You'll start to uncover new techniques, and soon you'll have a "database" of workflows that match up with a database of images in your head. I'd encourage you to pick a single still frame that you like, and recreate as closely as possible. Notice the direction and quality of the lighting, the color grading, the wardrobe and set design, the position and angle of the camera, framing, lens choices, etc. Because eventually, when a writer or client hands you a script and asks "What are you thinking of for this?", now you'll be prepared. Hope that helps!
Thanks a lot mate! Till now I am not that much into movies but more into event- or musicvideos. One of my favorite artists is Sam Kolder, I love his style. I already tried to lern his techniques and tried to create my own style. Maybe tomorrow I will try to recreate one of his shots in detail :-)
Thank you for this detailed answer!😃👍
Malte ging mir genauso xD
You're a great speaker, a talented colourist and you share some excellent tips here! Thank you :) If I could however, offer some constructive criticism, it would be...when you create a tutorial, it should be just that...rather than a demonstration. What I mean is, when you do something, it's better for a student to know WHY you're doing it. That way, we as students can actually learn to make decisions for ourselves because you have shared with us the reasons behind your steps. For example, WHY do you use the RGB mixer to adjust saturation instead of the saturation slider? WHY did you de-saturate the image before adding contrast? WHY did you un-gang the curves, adding contrast only to the luma channel? When you refine the key by hand, what did you actually do and why did you do?
I hate to sound negative, because your video has a lot going for it, but personally I sit here after 3 minutes and I don't feel empowered or more knowledgeable, I'm just wowed and mostly see you demonstrating that you're a great colourist :)
Hi Matthew! Thank you, and I appreciate your feedback! I plan on covering many of the things you've listed in future videos; the only reason I chose not to here is because I wanted to keep the video focused on just the skin tone methods/theory. But look out for other episodes covering the color correction process in more detail!
Avery Peck Gotcha, no worries and keep up the good work :) Thanks for sharing your techniques!
I actually beg to differ. As a semi experienced colorist I find the explanations of why something is done tiresome and I usually just skip through them. I really appreciate that Avery's tutorials gets straight to the point as opposed to all other tutorials on youtube.
DesDrukStiv So are you saying you're happy to learn a technique and use it, even though you have no idea why you're using that technique? Or are you just saying that you enjoy a short, to the point tutorial? The difference in my mind would be "now let's use the RGB mixer to increase saturation instead of the usual saturation slider BECAUSE ..."
@Matthew Scott just an FYI, saturating an image using the RGB mixer as he did is mathematically identical to using the standard saturation control I.e there’s absolutely no point in doing it
This is by far the most complete tutorial in color grading I can't thank you enough for sharing this
You have created the best DaVinci Resolve color grading tutorial EVER.amazing job my friend !!!
Anyone else not like the look of color grades, and just like it when the image is color balanced naturally?
I know what you mean. Really depends on what you are trying to achieve I guess. Just think that something like this teal look gives you another dimension to your storytelling. Just enables you to add that different context to the world you are creating through film. Sometimes though, something that is just balanced does the job.
After 5 years probably You know that, but for others i will complete what Matt said. Storytelling. In "The Matrix" colors tells us about where we are: Matrix or the Real World. Ones shots were green, ones were blue. It cinematographic (do not confuse with "just" videographic) it is not important to show truth and reproduce the real colors. Color grading is another way to tell something more, to put You in the mood of character, to separate You from the rest of the story or to rejoin with. It is not the wedding photography. Or it is? ;-)
Nice video but the music is killing me
Been searching for a good Davinci tutorial specifically for skin tones and lighting that includes shape on the subject. Well done! That part where you turned up the R, G, and B Channels were amazing. I came from a retouching background in photoshop for many years so thats what has given me a color correcting/grading foundation. Good job! Will try this ASAP!
I don't comment all to often, but I have to say that this is one of the most comprehensive and intuitive guides to skin tones and colorgrading in Resolve in general. Big thanks for your work!
Great Lesson Avery. But the music becomes really tedious. Love your presentation but the music needs to go away.
itzawrap, you probably find a lot of things in life tedious. Sucks to be you.
@@chosenideahandle Well, the music does get tedious! The rest is perfect....
I like it, keeps my ADD in check lol
I did not notice it until you mentioned it. Now that I think back to watching the tutorial I think it added a gradual ascension and a bit of drama to the final method he uses. I personally think the music added value to the tutorial.
There is no need for music. It was just annoying and distracting
This is a powerful video Avery Peck. Thank you for sharing your amazing technique!
Ive seen a LOT of tutorials on davinci resolve on youtube, not only are you a good teacher, but the way you talk and do things is also inspiring. I will definitly see this video 20 times at least. Thank you man, lots of love from Norway!
You are truly amazing! I am watching your each video again and again to go into even more details. Thank YOU!
Been searching for skin grading techniques for a while and now I found the perfect one. Nicely done. Thank you so much!
Avery just viewed your tutorial as I'm preparing to go back into film-making after a 15 year hiatus. I used to sit in very expensive grading suites and watch as these magicians plied their trade and marvel at the in-depth knowledge they possessed to get to the fantastic grades we came to expect and even take for granted. It really is an art and you have done a brilliant job of laying it out here in a simple, easy to follow format that is relaxed and packed with useful information. Thank you.
this took my color correction ALL THE WAY UP!!! i literally had no idea what i was doing, I dont even use davinci often and watching this tutorial honestly made me switch from premiere pro to davinci. God bless you and your family bro.
This is actually one of the best Davinci tutorial I've ever seen, Thanks Man
Brilliant work bro. one of the best tutorials on Skin Tone that I have seen on youtube. Awsome!!!!!!
The Best Resolve Tutorials on this Planet Period. Thank Youuuu!
This tutorial is amazing on so many levels. So simple, clear and easy to understand. THANK YOU ♥
By far and hands down the best tutorial I’ve seen since forever
Avery, THANK YOU. Another fantastic tutorial!! Honestly, there are no other tutorials like this at such a professional level. And if you ever create a masterclass, count me in!
Thank you so much for uploading this magnificent video. I took two post production classes and a film class in grad school, I have learned more from you than from my professors. I watched a lot of TH-cam color grading tutorial videos, none of them come close to you. You are the real deal. I am glad I found your TH-cam channel bro. You have a new subscriber and a new fan. Blessings!
Absolutely love this. Such a concise tutorial. Looking forward to checking the rest of them out!!! Than you.
This is the BEST tutorial I've seen so far. thank you very, very much! :)
This is the best made resolve tutorial that i ever seen until now. Thank you so much.

I've seen a 100+ Grading tutorials, this is by far one of the best ones.
On point, Avery! On point! A tutorial that makes me want to learn color grade to its depth and realize the potential of knowing the software. By far the best I have come across. Subscribed.

It took forever for me to adjust skintones but this technique takes 12 minutes to do so. Thanks. dude!! You save my life. This is the best DaVinci tutorial I've seen so far
So much better than watching people explain different aspects of the program. Seeing the Layer Mixer in action on a grade made it clear to me how to use it myself!
Best color grade channel for resolve. Learning so much. Thank you
You sir are a god. Please keep this type of content up! I am learning so much!
BRAVO! Thank you so much Avery! excellent video to explain how important it is to maintain pure skin tones within a creative cloured graded scene!

Best teacher i found on internet, thank you! Regards from Italy
Subbed, by far one of the best davinchi tuts I've seen. Quick, on point and informative. Keep up the good work!
Great tutorial! Easy to understand, no superfluous chatter or info. I work at a commercial agency and being able to correct and grade in DaVinci in house is a huge benefit! I'm subscribing and will check out your other tutorials. Thank you!
Great tutorial! Love especially the fact that you did it repeatable to every shot! Great work!
Thank you, Avery. I watched this video again and again. Really inspired!
Thanks, mate, for this tutorial! I have a pleasant time watching it :) Great technique and great delivery to the audience!
Simply Excellent tutorial, the info has been so in-depth, and precise to the point, awesome Avery Peck, Thanks a ton.
It really needs to be said that these videos are top notch! Nicely done!
I like the simplicity of the approach. Thanks for this. Can't help subscribing.
Way dope! I am glad I came across this video. I definitely am going to adopt this to my workflow. Thanks so much! DaVinci has so many different ways to grade and I like the flexibility in changing the look.
Dude - this was 12 minutes of GOLD (and teal and orange). Such fantastic info, and will save me SO much time moving forward while improving my coloring. 👊
