Bro for context I just bought my black magic 6k pro, ive been trying to figure out how to colour correct and grade your video is the first video that explains this so easily, I paused at time stamp 3:33 to like and drop this comment and subscribe
As someone that doesn't know anything about color-grading, this video was very insightful providing me a look into the mind of a video editor. You did a great job explaining why you were making the decisions presented in the video. Thank you!
Well that was awesome. Thanks so much for the help! Loved how you vinetted the light part of the sky instead of just vignetting the corners like I would have haha. Felt way more realistic the way you did it
Je doet het wéér. Vanuit Rust een duidelijke uitleg, met onderbouwing. Jij bent 1 van de 3 color-meesters waar ik heel veel van leer. Dus, dank je wel Marcel voor het mogen leren van jou.
Wow you made this so simple for us to follow! I've had the BMPCC 6K Pro for 3 years and have shied away from DaVinci because of my lack of technical background in editing. But dude, this was so amazing to follow and is a huge motivator for me to finally jump from premiere to DR and learn more and figure out the full potential of my camera.. THANK YOU!
I’m watch this a few more times and study it best I’ve seen so far, just started using resolve and it can be very intimidating but your videos makes it worthwhile. 🙌🏽
Just found your channel and this video 🤯. I just started my channel a couple days ago and this video would have been really helpful before getting started. Thanks for this.
Great job. Thank you for the video. I didn't use Devinci and I have to say I am so impressed with this software. I subscribe so I will be looking at your channel more often. Be well
Thank you Daniel!! I highly recommend Davinci Resolve. There is a small learning curve if you have used other editing platforms but it's well worth making the switch. I appreciate the kind words bro 👊✌️
I love the look you ended up with there! Curious why you prefer to work in a rec709 timeline VS Davinci Wide Gamut. A lot of colorists I follow take advantage of the control and extra information the wide gamut color space offers while creating the grade and use a CST at the end to convert to rec709. Any particular reason why you would create your grade in the very limited 709 space? Great job on putting this together btw!
This is partially to not get in the weeds of talking color space for this video. While some people are very familiar with the various color spaces and CST, many other could get very confused. So I kinda figured for the general public this would be the easiest workflow to understand. Thank you the comment! I really appreciate the kind words 🙌👊✌️
Can you give me any tips on what do use when I have Gopro footage that looks really washed out? The camera is actually setup on a scope mount, and I'm getting washed out colors, and having a hard time color grading in Divinci Resolve I'm pretty new to all this also. Thank you!
In the color tab, if you have one clip selected, you can right click on another clip and select "apply grade" or "append nodes" to copy a grade from one clip to the other
Hello sir... i have a doubt on how to start with blackmagic RAW 6k footage in davinci 18 and what are the color space i have to setup to start my project in 4k ..
nice video video as usual !!! for the future, can you create a tutorial on how you create the "effect" that start at 14'23" with the various overlay of the grading ? regards from italy

I shot 1.5 TB of Footage on the 6k pro in Full 6k Braw Film Gen 5. Its a client project and I need to deliver it in the best quality possible for uploading on a website through Vimeo. I would like to color grade the footage in DaVinci and export it to After Effects while maintaining all the quality in 6k resolution for editing. What would be the best project settings and color space transform from start to finish? Blackmagic Gen 5 Color Space and Blackmagic Film Gen 5 Gamma to Davinci Wide Gamut and Davinci Intermediate and then that to Rec 709 and Gamma 2.4 / Cineon Film Log? Should I put the CTS in the start, end or middle? Can I deliver in Rec 709 as color space and Cineon Film Log as Gamma and still have it displayed nicely on all displays even tho it’s Cineon and not Gamma 2.4? What would be the best render settings or way to export the footage 6k lossless to after effects? I would really appreciate your answer!
U said you turn down the strenght on the lut. I watched a video when someone says thats the wrong way to do it and he showed how its done right. He is a proffesional color grader. I am a bit confused now
I would say there are many ways to accomplish very similar things when coloring. Just choose the technique you find works the best for you 😁 there is no right or wrong way to be creative
I think you are referring to a video where there is a CST node converting to Cineon Film Log before the Film look Lut node. You combine the two nodes into a compound node and then reduce key output. That method is used for log or Rec 709 footage. This is BRAW, so it's different.
@@TheModernFilmmaker i agree with IndioA on this one, film print LUT from Davinci expect Cineon Film Log, so you should use a Color Trasform Space in front of lut and use Rec.709 and Gamma Cineon Film Log as output then on next node put the lut
I believe there are scientific ways of accomplishing a look and creative ways of accomplishing a look. I am very close with a firm here that does every single Netflix original trailer. It would blow your mind what I have seen their colorists do to achieve a desired look. They encourage breaking the rules and to let creativity lead... I do appreciate and understand both of your opinions but there are many different opinions in this industry about "right or wrong" but the truth is there is no "right or wrong" in creativity
@@TheModernFilmmaker Don't want to upset you, i like what you are doing but i It's not about my technique here, it's about how Davinci designed to be used that luts, they are expecting Cineon Film Log before appling them, but yes we are on youtube and everyone can use them how they want, so if the end result it's ok for you and the client, then it's your choice :)
I don't get it.... the picture is either out of focus or not sharp. Either way, I would not pay for this if I were your client. Not trying to be hard, its the truth.
Thanks for the comment! Fortunately this client paid me double what the invoice was he was so appreciative 😊 can't please everyone though and I'm completely OK with that 👊✌️

Dude! Best color grading Davinci resolve video I’ve seen yet. Really great stylistic breakdown. Subscribed.
Hands down, that was great, Marcel, helped me a lot - Greetings from Germany :)

huge fan of the Blackmagic Design Camera's, thank you for showing some of your workflow.
Blackmagic is the best 🚀🚀 thanks for the comment 🙏✌️
I love the film lut u use. I use the 60 also most of the time
That Glow did it for me! Nice!💪🏾

Yesss adjusting before the LUT is the easiest to not mess up ❤
golden tips as usual! dunno how I missed this video in January

How do you apply the same look to multiple clips, or do you have to do each clip at a time?
In the color tab, if you have one clip selected, you can right click on another clip and select "apply grade" or "append nodes" to copy a grade from one clip to the other
If your channel was a stock, i would bet on it :-) Keep up the professional work.
🤣🤣🤣 that is awesome Don! Thank you bro 👊✌️

Thank you Matteo!! I copied the video clip a few times, then used the "edge wipe" transition to reveal each new layer of video. Great question 👊✌️
@@TheModernFilmmaker thanks for your replay. i'm waiting the tutorial 🙂
Cool vid!
Which gimbal do you use for 6k pro
I use the Crane 3s... It's a bit heavy but I love it. The Ronin RS 3 is much lighter and can handle the 6K Pro
When doing your process, my footage in davinci looks much darker than the original footage in camera. Is there something I’m missing?
This could be color management settings or a variety of things. What camera is your footage from?
When using the blackmagic 6k and using Davinci Resolve what timeline do you use since there isn't a 6144x3456?
I use 4k and it gives me room to crop on and still have high res if I need to. Good question!

And the white balance?
My apologies, the white balance was properly set in camera so there wasn't much need to recalibrate
Can we get a fusion tutorial on your own logo?
thank you bro!

I find the "Camera Gyro is the smoothest to me.
never skip the basic everyone
sorry, but you have no idea how to use a film print LUT in resolve, and everyone still believes that it is right what you demonstrate here.
Everyone has a different workflow my friend 🙏 you should make a video showing yours 👊✌️
