Can you make a video explaining IDT and ODT?
you are awesome! thanks for this.
Thank you! You are very welcome.
So informative!
Thank you, Elena!
Love it!
Beautiful!
I appreciate your support, Elena!
Did you shoot 4:3 or 16:9 and then cropped with an overlay?
This footage is from Artlist captured in 6144x3160. You can find the clip here: artlist.io/stock-footage/story/the-indian-summer/18443
Hello, Thank you very much for this video ! For method number 2, how do you do the reverse, to detect the low frequencies, so that you can modify the sharpness of the low frequencies ?
You're very welcome. If you create a new serial node after the Low Frequency Threshold node or if you use the Null node at the bottom right before the Layer Mixer that is set to Add, and add sharpen there, you will be sharpening your low frequencies.
Why do you use Arri LogC3 as your color space and not DaVinci Wide Gamut or ACES? Are there any benefits to Arri that the other two color spaces don't have?
The benefit to using Arri LogC3 as a timeline working space to me is their beautiful colour science. I prefer the starting point I get with Arri's technical LUT that outputs to Rec709 over any other ways of converting an image to Rec709 including a CST to convert from LogC3 to Rec709. The result is different. I love how their technical LUT affects skin tones mostly and how it remaps the rest of the hues in my image as well. It's just a personal preference though. There is no right or wrong here.
@@marietafarfarova Fair enough. Wouldn’t CST be a technically better way of outputting to Rec709 instead of using a LUT?
@@MusaonYT No. Both are technically accurate.
Super nice one Marieta !!! :)
Thank you, Chloe!
Amazing video!
Thank you!
nice tutorial!! what about applying the grain after the technique? I feel like maybe you loose grain if you do the MTF after
Yes, 100%. You can do any additional texture work and apply film grain after this.
Wow, just watched all your videos, thanks a lot, real value right here
Thank you, I'm so glad you found all of my videos useful!
Great video! I’m definitely going to try out this technique. I would love to see a video on creating sharpness, like the Beef example. If you know of videos on CZcams touching on that subject, that would be extremely helpful! 1:00
Thank you! Qazi actually covers a cool technique that sharpens just the high frequencies in this video: czcams.com/video/d40zspo9q-4/video.htmlsi=BJJtbZQ4sPEXqNX-&t=520 You can get better results if you also do your sharpening operations to the L channel only. So for example, if you switch the colour space of your node to LAB (Cie), then turn off channels 2 & 3 and this way you'd be applying sharpening just to the luminance channel.
This is great Marieta! Question. Why don't prefer LOG-C over DWG? I'm curious.
Hey Daylan, thank you! I prefer the ODT transform of Arri's technical LUT compared to Resolve's CST (regardless if it's converting from DWG or LogC3 to Rec709). Personally, I find that Arri's LUT produces much better skin tones and it remaps the rest of the hues in a more pleasing way too.
Wow i learnt this one now what an insight though too technical i really love this thanks a lot
I'm so glad, thank you!
wouldve been great to see how you constructed the node tree
It made more sense to build it first and then break it down rather than trying to explain it as I’m putting it together.
ingenious
Thanks!
Did you get the MTF customized node tree from Dado Valentic’s Masterclasses ? That’s where I learned it(years ago), if not what was your source ?
Hey, I learned how to build a frequency separation tool initially from Dado Valentic and from Hector Berrebi as well.
Thank you for the teaching !
You’re very welcome.
Greeat video!!
Thank you!!
There is also this saturator dctls, density dctls, but am used to HSV, HUE curve, and LAB method too thanks a lot it helps nice tutorial well detailed
Thank you!
Awesome i love this it make images pop, well detailed teaching , i need the back light up to be able to see the UIs well thanks a lot
Thank you! Yeah, sorry about the small size of the UI. This is fixed in my next videos.
I've been loving your videos, thanks for sharing these techniques. Keep them coming :)
You’re very welcome! ☺️
I found the using a mix of both work very well, because, is the frequency separation works small textures beautiful, but the edge detect method work best for edges of the images, (like the name says haha), so I configure edge detect for big details and put some blur very subtle and frequency separation for small details like skin level . for me work really well. Congratulations for your channel
That sounds great! And thank you!
Thank you so much for creating and sharing
You're very welcome.
Omg, thank you for stopping me from blurring all my videos hahahahah
Hahaha, you're welcome!
Thank you so much for this video!
You're very welcome!
I love your breakdow of the element of the look.
I'm so glad to hear that, thank you!
Loved your teachings. Am an intermediate colorist and your teachings helps a lot. Looking forward to see a technique if you want to do the opposite of mtf
Thank you! Of course, you can use both techniques to do exactly the opposite - add sharpness to high frequencies.
wait so none of this would work if i used a sony a7iv slog 3 ?..
It does not matter what the camera is, it would work on any footage, of course.
Thank you Marieta you are God sent fr
Awesome
Thank you!
Both informative and entertaining. Thank you for this unique insight that I had never heard of (MTF), and for providing the technical background for it. Very clever way to implement it in Resolve.
Thank you, I'm so glad to hear you found it useful!
this is brilliant! i was so suprised why i haven't thought of this before :)
Thank you!
Loved It! Giving away your powergrades would be even nicer😅
Thank you! Sure, you can download the powergrade from this link: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1947XArQts-dMzl0HvRRstWZx4N3d0QM0?usp=sharing
@@marietafarfarova Thanks a lot!
Nicely done - There are a few OFX that do frequency separation, they are difficult to actually set up though. I applaud the complexity of this tutorial. Seems to be a fresh take on the esthetics of a film look. Thank you.
Thank you very much, Jim, I appreciate it! I actually considered including Texture Pop OFX as an option for recreating an MTF curve but the visual result is slightly different so I decided to exclude it.
I discovered your channel just now, at this exact moment and already with a lesson in the MTF technique... Congratulations, I was delighted with how easy it was to pass on your knowledge. If you allow me, I would like to ask a question... is it possible to apply it using the free version of Davinci or can you emulate it using just the Studio version?... I also noticed the use of tools from the next version of Davinci still in beta - 19 I ask this because I've been trying out Davinci recently and of course that's why I use the free version but I've noticed that the colorization tab in the free version is much more limited compared to the Studio version. I used HitFilm Pro because I wanted to get out of the Adobe domain but they just disappeared, without saying goodbye and I don't want to go back into the clutches of Adobe again so I'm trying Davinci. Thank you and congratulations once again, including for the friendliness you present in the videos!
Hi Marieta, Is it possible with a download link for a powergrade?
Sure, here you go: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1947XArQts-dMzl0HvRRstWZx4N3d0QM0?usp=sharing
This is amazing wow! I learned alot
I'm so glad to hear that, thank you!
These are good stuffs...well done
Thank you!
FROM WHERE WE GET THAT LUTS
What LUT? There are no LUTs used in this grade so I'm unsure what you mean.
@@marietafarfarova i mean the arri lut
@@user-cu6vn7jn3s From here: www.arri.com/en/learn-help/learn-help-camera-system/tools/lut-generator
A great and clear lecture with an excellent practical example - I will be looking forward to the next one - best regards
Thank you very much!
wonderful tutorial
I appreciate it, thank you so much!
Amazing episode thank you 🙏
I'm so glad you found it useful, thank you!
Great one Marieta! Love the way you combined the theoretical with the hands on part. 👏 Well done
Thank you, Manuel! 😊
👍👍👍👍
Every day is a school day. I love how technical and simple your teaching style is on every video.
Thank you so much! I put a lot of thought and effort in making complex topics simple so I'm glad it's coming across!
Perfect episode 🤗 Thank You 👌
Thank you so much, Vladislav!
Super wonderful, it works great! Love it! I was just applying like 1 or 2 pieces of blur in a different way but I like urs way better…. It feels more genuinely like film. Thank you!
Thank you, I'm so glad you think so!
This is overkill for me but I loved how technical it was and your ease in presenting the topic! Good stuff.
Thank you!
