About:
I am a professional colorist and have worked with brands such as Prime Video, Adidas, Toyota, Vizio, etc. Outside client work, I run a color academy with over 6000 students. My channel mostly focuses on the taste-making (subjective) aspect of color grading. With the rise of AI, I truly believe that most of the grunt, technical (how-to) tasks will be handled by the software, and the job of a colorist will be purely driven by their art and imagination.

Finally! Thank you Qazi, more tips like that please 👌🏼
Thanks for the choice video Qazi, you always deliver excellent knowledge in a great format
Great video! As a smartphone specific filmmaker this is super useful!
Great stuff, Q!
Fantastic information. Thank you.
finally phone footage color grade tips.... Thanks a lot
thanks for keeping it real 👍
Waiting for that so long qazi ❤
That’s a good idea
this is awesome
Amazing video thanks.👍
Can’t wait for the iPhone 15 log footage editing tutorial 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Finally! ❤
Thaks bro
this video is useful for me, thank you very much
You are welcome!
Qazi! I´d love to see an Apple Log grade!
I was wondering how to get the LUT and test footage after I watched the training. I wanted to dive more into it before making a decision on the course
Thank you for the video. Are you not using Resolve 18.5? I see the Color Space & Transform screen is different.
would you possibly do a video on how to grade /CST a GoPro hero 11 log/gopro flat preset?
i have a question thats not really related to this video but does baselight have any advantages over resolve that can make or break the colour grading of a shot? I've managed to to get raw shots from mad max fury road but there are a couple of areas that I cant quite match like the megenta tint in haze with out messing up all the foreground or in background of some areas with out masking and tracking a lot.
Im always wondering how to properly set up color space and where to do it. I always shoot ProRes 422HQ in hdr on my iPhone.
I didn’t get a link to download the lut after and practice footage after I watched the free webinar
do you have a tutorial walking us through footage that came from an iPhone shot in an HDR space? Absolutely struggling with this
brother a question. Do you think that color grading can be done with precision and screen calibration with the App Vision Pro and Davinci?
Hi Qazi, thx for the videos, any chance you do some color grading for cg ? I feel that it's an empty area of youtube training there. The files that we get from rendering are way different to cinema cameras, so it would be great to know how to use them correctly to color grade them.
THIS!
Just bought an iPhone 14 pro! I need as much tips as possible to make my footage look more cinematic than digital
You'll love these subtle tips bro. 💪🏾
Useful ❤. What is the name of the custom LUT that you used here? Please mention.
I have just downloaded the video and tried out the LUTs from the pack. I think it should be film_desat_lg-m_gn-g.
I worked on network tv spot back in 2016 that was entirely shot on Iphone. It was hilarious coming to set and seeing the big cine lenses in a rig infront of the phone. All i can say is that way of using it was not terribly successful. Worked on set for nearly 20 years - trying to learn this so i no longer having to be in the rain for 12-15 hours haha.
finally
Which are some good apps to shoot in LOG for iPhone 15 base, not the pro?
What about color grading GOPRO 7 footage?
What about the apple iphone HDR function? How to grafe that type od video?
Great video @WaqasQazi . One doubt while using IDT & ODT or CST what should be our Project color management settings it should be DaVinci YRGB with DaVinci Wide Gamut/Intermediate or DaVinci YRGB color managed with DaVinci Wide Gamut Intermediate. I am really confused on this one thing from days. Please help me this .... and thankyou so much for awesome content
i'm going to guess that he's using davici yrgb, since he's doing node based color management using cst's to convert to dwg and back.
@@psvillars ohhh got it, Thankyou so much 🥳
Would love to see how you’d tackle an iPhone clip filmed in HDR. Where I work we tend to get a lot of iPhone footage sent in to us from people and nowadays they almost always shot it with HDR left on because they don’t know any better.
Have to transform it from hdr to sdr. The best way I found to keep 10bit is to convert it in Final Cut then bring into resolve. Or second Option is right click on the clip and encode selected clip. It will covert hdr to sdr .
The best way to convert HDR to SDR in resolve is to use a cst and set input colorspace to rec2020 and the gamut to rec2100.hlg, this is the one thing I wish he had addressed in the video
Of course make sure your timeline is set to rec709
Great tutorial as always. Just dropping a note that there might be an issue with the link to the LUT Pack & Powergrades in your Color Grading class. I did the class yesterday and no link to the LUT Pack & Powergrades showed up. Maybe it's just me, but wanted to give you a heads up.
Dm me on IG please.
Had same issues watched the class and didn’t get a link
happend to me as well
turn off your pop-up blocker
1:08 I wish Apple would give you that option (for LOG...) wish came true!.. now we need another updated video for Color Grading - iPhone 15 Pro Max - BlackMagic Camera App - Apple Log
Does this show how do grade iPhone HDR footage and how to make sure Davinci resolve displays it the same when you export. That one’s been tricky for me. Every one has a different way of doing it and I can’t seem to make it look exactly the same
Would also love to see the same video but this time using hdr dolby vision footage with a rec 709 final output
it's basically the same but in the cst where you convert to davinci wide gamut, instead of rec709 and gamma 2.4, you would select rec2020 and rec2100.hlg, but everything else would be the same
Does this tutorial work with gopro footage? Thank you Waqas, new subscriber here.
I think the main thing that would change would be your color space transform settings. Doesn't GoPro use CineForm? There might (don't know) be a setting for that in the CST, so you would convert from CineForm -> Davinci Wide Gamut at the beginning of your node tree. But again... I'm making an assumption on how GoPro is recording.
@@camerastooge I'm having a hard time on what should I set on CST. Gopro has no Cineform, what should I set instead? Thanks bro. Much appreciated.
@@user-in6pk9ni2k Oh, strange. I thought GoPro supported CineForm, heck, I thought they were the creators. I did a little poking around and I would try setting your input color space to Rec.709 (if you're recording H.264) or Rec.2020 (if you're recording HEVC/H.265). See if that works. I'm no expert with this -- I never thought about using CST on iPhone footage before seeing this video! Hopefully this helps you get where you need to be.
@@camerastooge Btw, I'm not sure with that cineform thing., but it is still nice to know what should I do either way. Thanks man! Gonna try it on my footage rn and explore what's better.
Which lut did you use here? I have the lut pack but you didn't mention the one you used?
I have just downloaded the video and tried out the LUTs from the pack. I think it should be film_desat_lg-m_gn-g.
Could you also make a video on if the video was shot with Filmic Pro's log? Most people who do shooting on an iphone that actually want to color grade will shoot with Log in filmic pro and i'd love to see that process play out. Also, I had a "wait what?" moment when you just casually mentioned Filmbox was $1000. Here I was thinking it was a built in effect in Davinci lol
I find cinema p3 log footage to be better. Tons of people are dropping filmic for it due to it being just as good app and it’s a one time purchase.
I've tried the DaVinci Rec to Wide Gamut to and back to Rec workflow before and I didn't really notice anything added, what kind of expansion does it allow?
I think it just effects how you can edit the colors. Like a painter with a paint brush, you have more colors to work with, but once it's rec 709 those colors get compressed to that color space. Think of it similar to taking a photo of a painting that uses 10 colors vs taking a photo of a painting using 1000 colors. Both paintings look the similar due to compression, but the larger amount of colors you can effect can help create more subtle nuances when editing. I hope that makes sense😂
@@fujicinema yes it makes total sense I just don't notice the difference in colors haha. thanks for replying your channel is great 💥
@@PTFWWDB Thanks! There really isn't a color difference. It just gives more color range to play with :)
Hello, Qazi I watched the whole training video but was not redirected to a page to get the LUT for the iPhone footage. Anyway you could help me out on figuring what went wrong?
Dm me on IG
just buy the course bro
❤❤❤❤
I have a technical question that doesnt only apply here but you mentioned halation.
It’s probably 1000x easier to just slap on the halation effects, but they are not free without studio.
And correct me if I’m wrong but adding an effect is essentially getting simpler knobs that help you change the main curves/graphs/scopes to get the desired look.
So isn’t it theoretically possible to manually change the curves yourself, getting rid of the middleman, and achieve halation?
There has gotta be a way.
There is! I used to do that effect way before DaVinci added it and even before it was popular. There's a few ways to do it and if you look it up I'm sure you can find tutorials on it, but basically you can add a glow effect that only effects the highlights and put the color as orange/red and set it to screen or add. Another way is using a layer node set to add or screen and doing it all manually with curves and blur. If you need I can add a link to a video, or maybe I should make a video myself 😂
@@fujicinema I'm pretty new to davinci and I like to get good at the simplest things before moving on...and just to put in perspective, I haven't gotten to use any other type of node than the basic one hahah.
But I appreciate the answer. I can sub if you promise to add the video ;) Your channel looks like it would be fun to go through. Good luck with it!
one really pro thing about iphone is stabilization
❤
Grade log from iPhone 15 pro max plz
Hi anna
Hi, somebody have the Lut? thnx a lot
What about BlackMagic?
Hello, I just watched the free class directly on the website for 1 hour. However, I didn't have access to the free personalized workout. Where can I find it?
Free personalized workout?
Aaaand here we go 3 2 1 ...
I really wonder what was happening in ODT?????
I don't think we can do thin in Night Footage
Can you show the same Color Grading in night footage
Camera people often say a gh5 sensor is to small but then they film with iphones with even smaller sensors in 8 bit😂😅🤣🤣
How to de sharpen your smartphone videos
th-cam.com/video/Sjo6mIuI1TQ/w-d-xo.html Here’s a little trick that will also help with that weird for lack of a better term that halo type effect that can form around edges although in the I say bring the highlights all the way down I found that bringing them down to about-50 works the best
Would have love to see you clean up her hands. I feel bad for her, looks like she's had gloves on all day for the shoot. Anyway thanks for the tips!
Says that the fixes he presents "does not require any prior color grading experience." Literally the 1st step of the 1st fix requires color grading experience.
If Iphone video is too sharp, I don't know what to call Samsung video anyway =))
Such a shame you didn’t do this for hdr footage which is what’s 99% of iPhone shoot in by default. No one shoots iPhones in sdr.
Use blackmagic cam u noob 😂
Watched the 1hr and 10 minute free webinar all the way to the end and it did not include the freebies as promised. Hopefully this comment might save other people from watching an hour and leaving empty handed from those items promised. Yes he gives tips but this was disappointing not to get the freebies promised.
Dm me on IG please
"free if you have the studio version" lol
I don’t think the source it’s REC709!
iPhone footage if you don’t film with third party app it’s actually REC2020 Gamma HLG 2021.

That's not true. You can change it in the camera settings. Also, you saw me turning the idt and odt on and off and it looked the same.
@@theqazmanthere isn't a setting on my iphone 12 pro to switch to rec709. Only an option to switch between h.264 and HEVC.
@@rocknroryif you turn off HDR video in the camera settings it’ll record in rec709
You know how long I been waiting for my man to do iPhone footage…..🕣
