Video

I've been using Adobe Premiere Pro for over 10 years on my Windows 10 PC for our school's morning broadcast and it's been great. The hardest part for me was making the first project, but once I finally got it working, all I needed to do was insert the video presentations (i.e. 5 a week) and the that was it. Therefore, it's been years since I've done anything to create or modify the project. I just found out that the old Premiere Pro application is being replaced and since my PC was over 10 years old, I decided to purchase a new PC and it came with Windows 11. Therefore, I need help copying my old Premiere Pro projects to this new PC and application. I've been spending weeks doing this but the processes I've been finding has been very confusing. We're currently on summer break, so I have some time to work on this, but it's been a bit confusing. Is there any training session that is available for me to use and get this Premiere Pro applications going?

Hi Barrett, great video. I've seen a lot of colourists use CSTs in the node view to control when the transformation into the output colour space happens, but DaVinci seem to encourage the use of colour management to convert to the output colour space before the node tree. Do you use CSTs in nodes out of habit or is there some tangible benefit to this? Thanks!

I love the filming speed adjust as well...on close ups...just brilliant

I was wondering if a creative LUT such as a film emulation would do more or less the same, pushing certain hues and saturation levels to a more cohesive look. Or would there be cases in which you would use this rgb-mixer method in conjunction with a creative LUT?

Love the content. Definitely inspired by Cullen Kelly knowledge i guess

Why not transform everything to arri log c? What is the benefit of transforming it Davinci Wide Gamut?

Genius!!! Finally a guy who knows what he's doing in stead of some 'Qazi'-pro colorist

Nope used day-for-night as well, and I think the results are stunning.

With the help of hundreds of rotoscope artist, colorists and 3D animation day for night is the way to go!

Wow, this was an exceptionally well articulated video! Thank you Barrett!

i love this channel

Hi, thanks for your video. I connect from mac studio or macbook pro to iphone or iPad without problems. Good working. But my friend send me session code from other country session does not work. "Error connection timed out". How to solve this problem? Thank you

Great channel, very well done! Your camera and DavinciWG Intermediate specific 18% gray charts are great. Did you create these? If not can you share where you got them from? If you did create them, would love to see a video how you made them. Keep up the great work!

Thanks a lot for this tutorial, been practicing and though it seems complicated I think it's a very powerful technique.

Your channel is great and I just wanted to say I was here before you became more famous. Keep doing this great content! I like the style, the tone and the info. I don’t think there’s anything to improve just keep working and giving us this great content and it’ll hopefully show up in the future Oh, and for sure, you have a new subscriber 🎉

NOPE did this brilliantly as well, also paying tribute to the classic westerns and giving us probably the best looking day for night to date

Hey is it possible to actually go through the step by step tut on how to get this Day for Night Grade on those same clips you showed us? It's really believable

Great info!

👏🏻👏🏻

He also said that he really liked Sky replacement for continuity in action scenes i wouldnt be surprised if they also did it in the night scenes

There are a lot of headlights in Fury Road. The Bullet Farmer's track vehicle Even has a spotlight. It looks like they masked off the warm lights

cool!

I watched an interview where Eric Whipp, the colorist of Mad Max explained a few things about these day for night scenes (in fury road)… Here’s some of the points I found really interesting and wanted to share… he said that one of the main reasons they went for the day for night look was because the shoot was predominantly done in an open desert kind of an area where they have tons of continuously moving vehicles (that too fast)… it gets very difficult to light up a scene appropriately with such complex movements in the night…you’ll loose a lot of details in the shadows and on top of that they would have to deal with all that noise (no matter how fancy a camera is you basically can’t get rid of noise)… so they instead thought of going for that day for night look…he asked them to shoot all the scenes “overexposed” so that later in post they have a lot of room to play around with the shadows and bring down the overall exposure without loosing any significant details specially in the lower end of the image… also they did the sky replacement in most of the scenes to make the sky look believable… and in some of the scenes, Eric made the sun look like the moon instead…. Genius…isn’t it?🥹 BTW your rendition of the day for night was really cool…i thought it was an actual day4nyt scene from the movie until you turned off all the adjustments 😹

I saw that interview and found the whole no-headlights thing real interesting and never even thought about that detail while watching those movies.

❤

Im late here but not to say this is great content. Subscribed.

Very interesting, thank you for talking about that!

Super useful, clear and concise. Thanks for sharing your knowledge

Thank you for all videos ans inspiration . 6:27 - please write me his name :D

Blow me mind .....this is easy

Great Stuff Barret ! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Question: is remote monitor gets signal from my reference monitor or from GUI monitor, because on my GUI the color is not correct because is not calibrated like my reference

Amazing Barrett, more than the knowledge, I like your philosophy!

Hey there really good job you are doin here. There are a lot of great color tutorials online and I almost watched all but one thing is lacking big time. A really good series of shot matching. There are some cullen and darren did but I never found them good enough to show a pro colorist approach. I would expect something like this from your channel. Thx for great stuff!

Well this is kind of simplified version traditionally is done with layer node setting it up as black and white and then managing pass trough with opacity which would be the equivalent to reintroducing silver back in to the film

Seeing that you’re using FilmUnlimited - where would you put this operation in that node tree?

Love the input. Thank You!

I have negative 1000 experience/knowledge of what you're talking about but you clearly know what you're talking about

This is what separates amateurs from pros right here

Great explanation!!! Thank you

Awesome video man we would all love to see what kaurh taught you I seen your IG story share with the class

❤

Appreciate for the answers. Thank you very much I hope this series will continue, cause this format is very helpful

Also, I had this question in my mind... say you have a bunch of clips and you're creating a certain look for the entire project at the timeline level. Do you first fix all your clips in terms of exposure and balance etc and then create the look, OR create the look first and then go on a clip by clip basis and do the necessary adjustments?

which DCTLs/Plugins would you recommend to create a "creative contrast"? BTW Thanks for dropping yet another helpful video.

I know this is a huge can of worms and the right way to proceed is by getting a professional grading monitor. However, I hope there's an approximation and one can use the display presets through Mac OS system preferences. Would this even come close to being useful esp for delivering to a film festival? I know a lot of folks are struggling with this issue. A video on this would be great.

Contrast is a big struggle for me - as it's hard to finesse. Either it gets too contrasty or gets too washed out. I then have to struggle through other ways to make it appear close to where I want it to go. Is there any way to be exact about contrast?

such a great video about this specific topic. thank you! keep doing :)

That format of the video is so helpful
