Its important to notice, all movies use a given color palette(and lighting), wich in itself gives a prelimenary look to the film, gives a distiction how the grade will (in a good case) compliment the whole process. So for example for BvS low light looks you cant use Whedons fan edit level lighting AND grade.
Do you think movies keep that color palette for ever scene? Or just for certain ones? Can you have different color palettes in a film
@@Deedzproductionz im no expert, but I’d assume it doesn’t change. I’m sure there’s exceptions like slightly tweaking your palette in certain scenes, but I don’t know about changing it completely
@@Chris-Chan thank you that helps alot
2 things that could seem contradictory to one another.
1) This video was super impressive from the perspective of how much one can AFFECT and CHANGE an image after the fact, and how much of a complex combination is needed to create what, at a glance, seems like a simple "look." I'm a writer, director, and sometimes editor, who sometimes has to color grade and it's a good reminder of how large the gap is between myself and people who REALLY know what they're doing.
2) I didn't find either image to be particularly evocative of "The Batman." First shot got closer than 2nd shot, but still maybe only got 30-40% of the way there.
Cool take on the Batman look! From a colorist point of view I would suggest you to get the look as close as possible without fancy tools. Grading by selections makes really hard to grade a project consistently from shot to shot. Overall I really appreciated the video. 🙏🏻
I was just saying something thing similar while being more harsh. He knows a thing or two but is not a colourist!
Hey Pietro, can you expound on this? What do you mean by fancy tools? Do you mean the film convert plugin? Not challenging you, I'm just not a colorist so want to understand more on what you're saying. Thanks!
Pietro, fire up your channel and show us OBI-WAN-Ronzoni. No one as a decent channel covering much in the way of grading, unless you're a DJI drone fanatic.
Exactly! I'm looking at this and thinking; 'DAM, just give me Windows Moviemaker!' But seriously, it does appear to be not only a tedious task, but like you said, CONSISTENT. It is MUCH better and more time management to do your best to get that color or look during filming as much as you can and IF there are any color tweaks, then make sure you have a STORYBOARD that explicitly shows those tweaks and work off of that. - James D. Watkins, artistic director of PHOENIX PRODUCTIONS.
It's so interesting to me that we went from, 20 years ago, shooting on film and doing a digital intermediate in post, then delivering on film... to now, shooting on digital and doing a film intermediate in post, then delivering on digital. Fascinating little role reversal that's happened.
oh my goodness using radial blur with a power window was the trick i needed to hear about! i'd been trying to see how to emulate that look for so long, never thought of a power window! could be cool to add some chromatic aberration using the same technique too -- really cool stuff in this episode!
I agree. Snydercut is the only version of Justice League.
FACTS
That's depressing.
@@henrychinaski5938 nah, what's depressing is that WB tried to cover up someone's work by replacing them with Joss (horrible person) Whedon, and putting a cgi mustache onto Henry Cavill
@@graysontheovercomer So is that. But letting that Hack near these characters was always gonna be a pile of shit.
@@henrychinaski5938 interesting. Why would they let a hack release his version of the movie if it held zero substance? And for the "hack" to make a version of JL that is universally considered better than the theatrical version, and leaving people curious about the sequels is a bit of a contradiction, isn't it? Almost like you have an opinion others don't share.
Maybe if others aren't sharing, you shouldn't share either. Keep it to yourself next time.
I love seeing DaVinci tutorials. Not an Adobe user so this helps me a lot. Do more of these!!! lol. Thanks guys
Some crazy awesome stuff here. You guys always come in with the best content for YEARS. I remember prop videos is how I found you guys and you’ve been an incredible help since. Much love to everyone at film riot. ♥️
Haven't watched you guys since about 2017. I made the old wooden 2x4 jib back when i was rocking the kit lens. Glad to see how much your channel and these tutorials have grown!
it’s so nice running back to this channel after such a long time, happy to see my boys are still doing good
Awesome breakdown! Resolve makes color work so much fun
Pretty amazing the detail of color correction that can be applied ! thanks for sharing
amazing work guys!! thx so much for all of the awesome content, motivation,and inspiration!!
straightforward, unpretentious and effective. though i can't remember watching any davinci resolve tutorials in your channel. in my mind you guys have been editing with premiere and after effects. i am using davinci resolve and will definitely experiment with bleach bypass and glow. thank you!
Everything is great excepto for the skin tone and orange color treatment. The first clip appears to struggle with gradients since the turquoise and orange around the fluorescent light are kind of a mess, and the arm in the second clip bleeds it's color to the shirt that should be all white
Thank you for being such a pillar of knowledge for indie filmmakers.
Don’t listen to this channel when it comes to colourgrading! Film riot are great for inspiration, directing, producing and sometimes VFX.
you forgot the most important ingredient, the focus fall off that are on the side of the frames
This really makes me appreciate filmmaking more!
I think one of the first things you need to do is bring the highlights down as much as possible. Movie's no where near this contrasty.
Using Resolve gives me more reason to watch Film Riot!
Andrew Kramer quality tutorial in a fraction of the time. Dunno how long you've been doing tutorials in this style, but I love it. Please keep them coming. Very easy to learn high level concepts this way.
THANK YOU. downloaded the free The Batman lut as soon as I finished your video. thank you, thank you.
i would like to add that most feature films also have a certain look depending on the brand of camera and its digital sensor, the brand of lens and the glass it has, and even the type of lights and lighting setup it has as well.
in the example of the batman, greig fraser utilized digital arri alexa cameras and cooke lenses; both unique artifacts and optics with infamously characteristic looks. fraser is also a big champion of using led lights as well. (for more info watch In Depth Cine's vid on the cinematography style of Greig Fraser
just goes to show that every layer that your visual language has always impacts the next. take away one aspcet of that language and its not the same.
anyways, very helpful tutorial on how to use the different features of davinci resolve!
“There you go, crazy easy!” Lol. Great work
"Zack Snyder's Justice League is the only version." Instant like 👍
Victor Stone (Cyborg) cries because his daddy wouldn't watch his game. 😂 His mother dies in a car accident because she's trying to comfort his bitch ass instead of watching the road. 😂 Victor goes on to blame his father for what happened.😂😂😂🤣🤣
Imagine you're Joss Whedon, someone gives you this material and 40 days to make a good movie out of it. 😂
@@marvelstudios3565 okay.
Have never used color warper before. Gonna have to have a go at it now!
Davinci Resolve nodes look frightening
I love the "There's no other Version" Exactly! That is fucking correct!
Haha I noticed how the colors on your set were changing too. How can someone not love your channel, that's really a clever implementation.
And this is why I hire a colorist for all my work. I wish I could get that good at color but I know where my limits lie I’ll stick to directing. Lol
Ive been soaking up as much info as I can for the last6 months working on my first project. Currently having to accept that I probably can't be writer, 3d artist, animator, director, colorist, VFX, voice actor, editor, and cinematographer all at once :( lol
Another thing to note is that some shots of the movie were filmed with a vintage lens on purpose, some bokeh that you see , looks super vintage, they said that they used the helios 44-2 58mm f2
Oh yes, please do more Davinci videos!
I was waiting for this video! Thank you 🙏
I honestly see a lot of Snyder in the visual tones of The Batman,
Matt Reeves matured and enhanced it
Absolutely not
Litterally saw the film last night you guys got great timing!
More resolve color grading tuts please! ❤️
More Davinci Resolve sir! Always great when you show warez that is truly cross platform... excellent vid as always
A master class in 10 minutes.
Who has seen the new Batman 🦇 movie 🙋♂️
Can you do an in depth look into lighting, I just can’t get a grasp on it
This Batman lut is stellar on LumaFusion
YES!!! MORE DAVINCI RESOLVE VIDEOS PLEASE!!!
Thanks to this video my respect for film editors and colour graders has skyrocketed
Amazing work mate!
Please do the MoonKnight transformation!!
This dude knows his friggen stuff.
Ryan knows which justice league was better 👍😎
Wow this is WAY better! WB needs to hire you
"Or from the Justice League. His version. There is no other version."
*Take my Like, good sir. I insist.*
pls bring back the Jurrasic park video pls :) favorite video also great content!
Just saw this for the second time in the movies
very nerdy tute. enjoyed
And these kinds of tutorials just show that even with a lot of work on one shot, you can't match a movie's look if your footage wasn't shot like the movie itself.
thanks you so much to teach me that sir !! im workin as colorist as 3 years and i learned a small trick from you today ! TODAY I GOT LEARNED NEW THING ! you made my day
I needed ten days to process the information on this ten minutes video.
The Batman was BADASS 💯
please make more davinci resolve tutorials 🔥🔥
Great video guys! Thanks for sharing
we need more of these stuffs
I like the 9:48 and 9:49 shot IMO.
Amazing!! The shots look so good. Can we maybe have a tutorial on how to grade Filmic Log iPhone footage?
Film supply footage for the win
I was wondering if you could recreate the look of a few other films that have a very distinct look like the batman . Taxi Driver, Good Time and The Dreamers are a few one you should try.I''d love to see you break their look down.
gorgeous
Thank you for this break down!
You did an amazing job with the colors, however there was a major mistake right off the bat, and it's that you shoot RED lol
quite extraordinary/. amazing explanation.
Thought I was decent at color grading in DaVinci but after watching this? God I suck.
interesting, but do you think the faces were desaturated in post or did they use only some make up ?
wonderful ryan, good job
Can we get the clips somewhere so we can play along?
'Or, from the Justice League. His (Snyder's) version. There is no other version.' 😏 *Like*
Victor Stone (Cyborg) cries because his daddy wouldn't watch his game. 😂 His mother dies in a car accident because she's trying to comfort his bitch ass instead of watching the road. 😂 Victor goes on to blame his father for what happened.😂😂😂🤣🤣
Imagine you're Joss Whedon, someone gives you this material and 40 days to make a good movie out of it. 😂
Really appreciated the tutorial but I am horrible at Davinci resolve. Could you make the tutorial again with premiere pro if thats possible
Can you do this for Man of Steel and make it look more bright and natural looking colour?
Also try and shoot on Arri or Red.
you guys are so helpful!
I heard he said : "crazy easy".
Dam talk about a color Ma$ter!
Tbh the colour grading in the Batman also looks really snyderish
Correct. There is no other version.

I watched The Batman in a theatre with state-of-the-art projection. It looks blurry, out of focus, shallow, murky, overly dim and dark. It puts the eyes to work. I appreciate the pictorial aesthetic from comics but the way it is shot and processed is just alienating.
I’m new to editing so this honestly sounded like a foreign language.
Bleach bypass red orange turquoise added into a shawdow and a green into the middle and grainny look
A complete DaVinci/Fusion VFX Tutorial would be fine, instead of boring After Effects :-)
I think it's important to note in this video that you try to create a "high contrast" grade when in reality, the batman was very low contrast. The difference is that it just had a more striking switch between darks and lights. This awesome video by Waqas Qazi goes in detail into the scopes from the Batman trailer and if you look at them the contrast is very low (with most of the scopes residing in the bottom half). So in reality if you want to emulate the Batman look both shoot in a more low key environment and keep your contrast low. Upping the contrast, like done here, actually strays quite a bit from what the color grade was attempting to do, which is look dirty and lived in.
the video by Waqas for anyone wondering (its great if you want a deep dive): th-cam.com/video/CybPMBAkruQ/w-d-xo.html
At first look, we can say this is low contrast, but technically, no! The bleach bypass technic is used precisely to increase contrast without affecting saturation. Check the scopes of the examples in this video. They are appropriately placed in the bottom half, similar to Batman. But then, it all depends on how was shot the footage you are working on. Increasing contrast will push midtones and shadows down. The highlights must be set adequately during shooting. We cannot cheat the lighting.
@@Rogeras32 David Cole used bleach bypass on The Batman, as he did on Dune. He explained that in an interview for Filmmakers Academy website and on the video linked below (around 28:30). The only saturated color is the orange, everything else is desaturated. At 1:00 you can see David Cole working on the color grading of The Batman in Resolve and his complexe node tree.

@@kokoloko12398 did they take it out? I don’t see a node tree
I think we can all agree Ryan is the real batman we all love
Can you also add more focus on the subject
What do you shoot your talking head videos on? it looks amazing in this video!
Brilliant & Thanks :)
is it really practical to move between premiere & resolve for color correction?
i own a copy of resolve but i never actually tried to use it because im so used to adobe everything
I died in laughter when you said "his version, there is no other version" #Restorethesnyderverse
Victor Stone (Cyborg) cries because his daddy wouldn't watch his game. 😂 His mother dies in a car accident because she's trying to comfort his bitch ass instead of watching the road. 😂 Victor goes on to blame his father for what happened.😂😂😂🤣🤣
Imagine you're Joss Whedon, someone gives you this material and 40 days to make a good movie out of it. 😂
that's prrety goood
Please make more color grading vids :)
whats the background music starting at 7:57
what AE folks see from this vid: hmmm... curves, it is
1:45 can you explain why despite the bleach bypass the movie still doesn’t have real black? Do people like it more like that? Why it seems many modern directors use a dark grey as the darkest color so much these days?
Really Cool! Mosf efficient and clear film tutorial in youtube
Make a list with DaVinci tutorials. Some of us can't afford After Effects
This can't be how they do it in a feature film, is it? I mean, it would take about ten years in post, to finish a 90 minute movie..
Thxx, Moses...
I don't think I have ever seen a Resolve tutorial at that pace. I think some of your viewers might have lost the tutorial at some point in there. There is of course ( like everything in Resolve) tons of ways to get to the same result. Just so people know that. Especially when it comes to look recreations. Not that your technique is not valid. In my opinion the same results could be done in less steps ( simpler ).
I was talking about your channel the other day and I said that in the past it seemed liked I was watching a great trailer to a movie, but can't go see the movie. You probably have considered this, but a video like this could have a secondary video where the Resolve tutorial could have a deep dive with a slower and more teachable approach for people to follow along. Seems like you have built the shell, and it would be an opportunity to expand on your videos. Just a suggestion, since you have already laid it out and done all the planning.
Hopefully the wedding videographers won't be using this look. But I have a feeling that ome, might.
Bruh, your cop on the left is smiling right as he turn to the wall WTF? lol
