One of the best tutorial for GoPro and cinematic look, thanks!
This is the most amazing effect that I find for Go Pro Footage! Thanks bro!
Takk!
Great job with that GoPro footage. The blurry background feature in DVR is amazing. Thanks for all the tips 👍🏻
One note to those using Davinci Wide Gamut for Color Management. Resolve doesn't always guess the source camera color space... if this is the case, you can right click the clip in the Edit view.. in the clip library, and choose "Input Color Space" and select the setting that is appropriate. This let's DWG convert the clip to REC709 properly. (Most RAW formats are automatic, and I think GoPro as well due to metadata)
You could also use the manufacturer's LUT... but that is more cumbersome than selecting all your camera's footage at once and selecting the color space. I also find Davinci's interpretation of the source color space better than the manufacturer's LUT.
GoPro is just normal Rec709 as it’s not log. So for GoPro you can just leave it as it is. For other cameras, you’re right with the input color space.
Man this LUT technic is GREAT!
Whooa!! I must try this now to my GoPro! Thank you so much for this!
Outstanding work my friend. Subscribed and thumbed for excitement for what's to come. Keep up the great work!
I'm at work right now and just can't wait to go back home to open Davinci, this is game changer! I already color grade my footage (As seen on my profile) but nothing to that extent. It's exciting
Haha, made me think back of the times when I learned something new during work times and couldn't wait to be home again ;-)
That's a very helpful video! Thanks Pascal!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Pretty sick. Just did my first gopro grading and it looks lit 🔥 thank you
Thanks a bunch mister, really helped a lot
Very succinct tutorial. Thanks
This was excellent. Very straight to the point. Good personality too.
i have da vinci and a go pro 10 i will try thsi soon hopefully. thanks for this!
Great, i use gopro and want to try this
Thank you so much for this. Will certainly try this with my Hero 10. Cheers 👍🏻🇬🇧
well done, that is so helpful :)
WOW, looks pretty good!
Cinematicness 😊❤
very informative man thank you so much for the video!!!
This method makes my blue sky's with clouds look completely blown out and pixelated. Even after lowering Lights and Highlights. Any idea if there is a fix for this?
same
sky gets totaly destroyed
This is great content 👏 ty for the color management information. It's what makes your video content better than most. Very useful 👍
You are impressive!!!!!
Thanks a lot for this great tutorial ❤️👍
Thank you boss man
Export settings for IG, Tiktok, or YT?
WoW thank you for the tutorial :D
Halation also works great with that kind of shot, nice work around for using the Kodak 2383 in a Color managed workflow 👍
I’ve been using the Cullen Kelly Davinci Wide Gamut 2383.
Thanks for the tip. I didn’t see this LUT before. Will try it out.
this one is really informative
Great video my friend! Can you tell me please should I do this on my foirage before I had cut it in 200 pieces or I need to do it individually on all those cuts I made?
This is awesome thanks for sharing Pascal👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻gonna try it
Have fun!
@@pascalbasel thanks buddy
tnQ so much man
What is the best gopro settings to use for most latitude in resolve?
Helpful tips!👏
GREAT VIDEO MAN! I have been looking to get my goPro material to the next level and these tips will definately help! :)
Super helpful thank you
Top 💪 thanks for that
This video is gold. Do you have a video for export settings for social media? Mine on instagram get really bad because of compression. Thanks
If you have footage shot in natural can you also do this or does it have to be flat?
Cool! Danke für den Tipp, das hilft mir weiter. Grüße aus der Heimat :-)
Wow! Thanks for sharing! After using FCP for so long, how long did it take to get adept at using Resolve? I’m going to have to make the switch.
Thank you for the tutorial! It is awesome... however, would I do the exact same steps if I use GoPro footage that is NOT in log footage and has the colour already on it as standard?
I am really happy I found you, I have just bought the hero 10 and am thinking of buying your course, what held me back is all your grading etc is in finalcut.... will you be updating the gopro course at all for Divinci as i am a Divinci user... thank you so much for your content!
I will add Davinci Resolve to my courses over time but it will take at least until the end of the year as I really want to know Resolve in and out before doing that.
@@pascalbasel cheers thank you!
the input gamma on the 4th node would be cineon (not rec 709) since the output on the previous was also cineon. this is how I do it and it looks a bit better with more contrast
No, the lut converts cineon to rec709. So the 4th node must be rec709.
@@pascalbasel how do you find that out? as in what the lut converts to?
Awesome content. Thank you very much for all this informations. Just a question why are ajdust your colorgrading with the HDR wheels and not with the normal ones. That's make a difference ?
They behave very different and give better results in my opinion.
A really good tutorial 💯
Glad you liked it
can i do every step without the paid version ? i need a tutorial getting pro gropro result in free version
Such a great footage Man! Do you think all these settings gonna work with GoPro 7 Black for shooting indoors in the low light?
No, GoPros are action cameras and not low light cameras.
question is-that video was shot in 10bit or normal 8bit with flat profile? because looks pretty awesome like 10bit vid from my fuji xt4
Hero10, so 8bit. GoPro handles it very well.
can i save these settings as presets ?
So awesome ! thanks for this tutorial ! I use this with topaz video and its overkill.
Fantastic! Amazing what you were able to do. Which GoPro color settings do you like to shoot in for this? Also curious if I can copy/paste or save this combo of luts as a shortcut for future editing.
Always Flat, and yes you can copy that but need to tweak it a bit all the time.
Hi Mate,
Thanks for the video - highly appreciated.
I have a question: Your output colorspace is set to DaVinci intermediate - don't you need to convert it to Rec709 before you output for TH-cam for example?
Thanks :)
No, because I work DaVinci Color Management. If that's not turned on, you'd be right.
From what I understand about CSTs, shouldn't the last node be converting the footage to Rec709? Afterall, thats the one to use (or preferred) for TH-cam?
The LUT converts from Cineon to Rec709
@@pascalbasel got it, sorry I didnt know it did do that..
Excellent video by the way!
@@pascalbasel one more question if you dont mind.. What if you had left output to Rec709 in the color management settings instead of Davinci Intermediate?
In that case you dont need those separate nodes to do the CST? Isnt that right? May be you need just one to convert to Cineon Gamma space, but thats it... right?
What the advantage of outputting to Davinci intermediate in the final node? When we export it, how do we export to Rec709?
funciona para go pro 12 usando el perfil log?
Nice tutorial dude, thx for all tips, do you mind me asking what your export lettings are? Mine looks awful after exporting, when I use imove it looks waaaay better, I'm so confused...
Thanks, I export as 4K ProRes 422 and upload straight to TH-cam if I have fast internet or, if not, I use Apple Compressor to convert it into H264 with the Apple Devices 4K preset.
thank you very much, I'll try that. I'm sure a tutorial on that would be a bit hit. Cheers!
Do you think I can work with your Videoediting Course when using Davinci?
Many techniques are doable in Resolve as well but work a bit differently. However, I will update the course by the end of this or beginning of next year for Resolve.
What is your video editor app?
I have questions when i put film GoPro 10 Black 5.4k to davinci now my video change settings 4k for free user THIS IS down scaling or what ? Please help me. Nice video 🤟
Yes, that's normal (downscaling). You only film in 5K to have more resolution for cropping & animation for your 4K videos.
@@pascalbasel ok thanks
Can you make or add how to edit on Davinci on your paid course ?
I will, but that will take some time as I have to gain a lot more experience with it.
any idea why sometimes the first cst makes certain parts really blown out and pixelated?
no idea here, cant figure out why is that happening on most ofthe gopro clips shoot with auto shutter and iso min max 100, flat profile
Guess I just move on and dont use this yet damn
I tried to use this way but my videos of the hero 10 look to much saturated especially the blue colors looks very very saturated. It does´t work as you show. Maby in mac computers wors good
If your colors look too saturated, desaturate them with saturation slider or use the hsl tool to only desaturate blue.
Hi Pascal. Is your protune flat footage shot with native WB or do you select a specific WB setting?
gr8
Go pro can shoot in log?
flat, not log
It is a flat profile and 8 bit... so you cannot push it too much... but as you can see from his tutorial... you can make the footage very cinematic.
From 1:00min to 3.00min i need 30 min just to find and follow these steps in real time
Du redest wie Uwe Boll :)
