How nice to see a video by a true professional colorist. It's clear you know what you're talking about even if a lot of it goes over my head. You make me want to learn more.
Thank you for your kind feedback, Evan. I appreciate it.
I’m thrilled you started a CZcams channel! I’ve been following you on Instagram and absolutely love your vibe. Keep up the fantastic work, and I wish you all the best!
Thank you soo much, I appreciate it, truly!
Hey Marieta. I'm new to Davinci resolve and i'm always looking to improve my colour grading. Just came across this video and I have to say even though I didn't understand anything, your way of talking and showing how everything works feels so soothing and simple. In the future please create a series of videos for colour grading basics so noobs like me can gradually come upto split toning and understanding the deeper topics. Also each time you used a keyboard shortcut and u put it in the screen really shows you care for your subs who have no idea which shortcuts are which. Keep rocking. You just gained a new sub! Have a great time here.
Allen, thank you very much for taking the time to write this, I appreciate it! I'm glad you found this useful and I'll do my best to cover more beginner topics in future videos.

The quality of this video is amazing! I can't believe it's your first video! My perfectionism really is going to struggle to release anything now! You've earned a sub from me, can't wait to see more!
That's so kind of you, Cal! Please don't be discouraged to create CZcams content because of perfectionism. You won't improve if you don't start. Your short looks fantastic! I've subscribed to your channel and I look forward to seeing more.
Great walk-through and well crafted video, Marieta 🤩
Tony, thank you for stopping by! I appreciate the lovely comment. ☺
You are a really pro!!
You're too kind. But I have a long way to go. The more I learn, the more I realise how little I know!
Very intuitive ! Thank you !
Thank you for your kind comment!
I like to use the curves method , but everything looks so good and looking forward to try it out. GREAT video , thank you for the tips !!!
Thank you very much, I'm so glad you found this useful!
This is my first time coming across the channel, REALLY GOOD VIDEO. You explain everything really well, and I appreciate the different methods being shown. It really helps me to incorporate the idea without changing up my workflow too much.
I'm so glad you think so, thank you for taking the time to write this!
Thank you for this.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a positive note, I appreciate it!
Welcome to CZcams! Great first video and I'm glad to hear you're enjoying my DCTLs 😄
Some feedback on the video creation side:
- Consider using a smaller screen resolution or bigger display scaling as many are watching these on 1080p screens or even phones (for Windows users, it can be set inside Resolve's preferences > User tab > UI Settings > UI Display Scale)
- Don't be afraid to Zoom in on parts of the UI when explaining something for the first time
- As Resolve's UI is rather complex, when highlighting small parts here and there, consider also adding an arrow that points there to draw the eye of the viewer
- 24 seconds to get into the meat of the video is pretty good! In the CZcams world, shorter tends to be better.
- Plus points on not asking for user interaction at the beginning as so many do.
- Love all the visual graphics! Are you using some kind of presets for those?
Hey Kaur, absolutely, your DCTLs are wonderful! Thank you for stopping by and for sharing your feedback, it's so valuable! I'll make sure to solve all of these going forward.
I create most of my graphics myself as I have a background in 2D motion graphics animation and I also use presets from Envato for After Effects and Premiere Pro. Happy to share specific links in case anything particular stood out for you and you wish to use in your own work.
Thanks a million, appreciate your detailed comment! 😊
@@marietafarfarova Gotcha.
Once again, awesome work!

Thanks a lot for the video 👏🏻Not only is the technical input really valuable, the editing quality is also awesome.
The second method was actually new to me. I'm curious to see what else will come in the future. + 1 Sub ✅
Thank you so much for your lovely comment!
Страхотно видео! Доста добри похвати за split toning 😊. DCTL-а ще се пробва :)
Много ти благодаря, Мартин! Надявам се, че си добре. 🤗
@@marietafarfarova Всичко е наред при мен! Благодаря! Ще чакаме още видеа от теб :)
Excellent video. Thoroughly enjoyed this. I use cineprint 16 to emulate the kodak look and this seems to be a good way to move things around a bit more.
Oh, that sounds fantastic. How are you finding CinePrint16? I haven't tried this PowerGrade but I've come across it so I'm curious to find out what you think.
@@marietafarfarova I am not a professional by any means, but i think it does an excellent job at getting the kodak 2383 look. I have compared it to dehancer and feel that dehancer does better in terms of color noise. Also with cineprint 16, i feel like things break up a little more in the shadows and you have to be very careful with darker scenes. All of my recent videos on my channel have been graded with cineprint16. I feel it also gives you more granular control over settings than dehancer.
nooo wayy this is your first video ? gimme some tips please 😭. the content is top notch. followed you on insta as well.
That's so kind of you, thank you! Your content looks great already! I'd suggest you check out Envato as they have some fantastic GFX templates for Premiere, After Effects & Resolve that can really help you elevate the look of your videos. Hope this helps!
ur gooood
Thank you!
Hey Marieta. I came to this channel from waqas qazi channel.... I like your explanation and looking forward to learn from you.
Hey Tsegaye, that's awesome, thank you! My next video on Qazi's channel will come out soon so look out for it.
Hi :) Really insightful video, thank you! Is there a reason why you add your texture with parallel nodes? Thank you!
I'm so glad you found it useful! So in my fixed node tree I usually have all my OFX (incl. film grain, texture pop, etc.) in a parallel stack at the end because it makes visual sense for me and it keeps things organised. You can do serial nodes as well if that works better for you. For example, if you have Halation, you should keep that before any softening operations because it works best on sharp edges. Hope that makes sense. Thanks!
Very nicely explained. Thank you.
Could you please exaggerate the adjustments you make because they aren't easily visible on CZcams
Of course, thank you for your feedback!
Nice color grading video techniques, clean and pro ! I have two questions ... When you create the RED IDT at 1:55 you use Gamut Mapping -> Saturation Compression with the default values, whats the trick ? :) At 2:17 you add a LUT to REC709, is it more accurate then using a CST? Can't wait for your next video! Thanks for sharing yours skills
Thank you!
So I noticed some gamut clipping in the orange headlights of the cars when I had Gamut Mapping switched off. Therefore, I came back to the IDT, I turned on Saturation Compression and the default values solved the issue. I'm not quite sure why this occurred with this specific footage. But there is no trick, really. This was me just troubleshooting an issue with the footage. But normally, you should have turned off both Tone Mapping and Gamut Mapping when you're going from one large timeline colour space such as RWG to another, e.g. LogC3 or DWG. Tone Mapping and Gamut Mapping are useful only when you're trying to shrink a lot of information into a tiny colour space such as Rec.709.
Yes, I prefer Arri's technical LUT because I find that it gives me more pleasing results, especially in the skin tones. Both CST and a manufacturer's technical LUT are technically correct and accurate. It's just about personal preference and which one you think gives you a better starting point.
I hope this helps and thank you for your support. My next video will be out very soon, just finishing the thumbnail. 😊
hey! I know it's work, but you could zoom in on your tips in the settings where you change values in Davinci resolve. This would help us a lot to understand Davinci better.
Yes, I will sort of the size of Resolve's UI and I'll have each panel pop out when I use it so it's clear what I'm doing. Sorry about that and thank you for bearing with me!
I am doing the Davinci resolve's beginner's training class, and youtube is suggesting you. Thank god, subs for more videos like this
I'm so glad you found this useful, thank you for subscribing!
Супер яко видео, ще трябва да го изгледам поне още три пъти, за да го схвана😅мерси
Хей, благодаря за позитивния коментар! 😊
Wow such an awesome video learned so much I have a question where did you get the Arri 18% gray picture from so I can use the qualifier to pin point middle gray when using curves
Thank you! I have Arri's Middle Grey Chart from a course I did with TAC Resolve training. But you can grab Cullen Kelly's Exposure Chart DCTL for free: procolor.ist/exposure-dctl/ It includes includes 14 different 18% grey patches that you can use to lock your middle grey point. Hope this helps.
@@marietafarfarova I actually have cullen Kelly’s exposure chart which works really well I just really like the arri one you used any chance you gave the name of that course so I can buy it?
@@mcneilbelle Got you! You can grab Arri's chart from here: drive.google.com/file/d/1Sl0hQWgR0sTKHbsU5x7s3pg315PxXmSJ/view?usp=sharing
@@marietafarfarova aww man marie you are literally the best thank you a bundle
Hi Marieta, the tutorial you provided was very helpful. How can I get a clip/chart like the '18 gray Arri Log C'?
Thank you! I have uploaded the Arri LogC chart for you here: drive.google.com/file/d/1Sl0hQWgR0sTKHbsU5x7s3pg315PxXmSJ/view?usp=sharing
@@marietafarfarova Thank you, Marieta!
GREAT VIDEO! where do you find that arri log c gray scale?
Thank you! I have uploaded the chart for you here: drive.google.com/file/d/1Sl0hQWgR0sTKHbsU5x7s3pg315PxXmSJ/view?usp=sharing
@@marietafarfarova Thank You so much new sub here and insta! greatings from Peru!
I really don't like grain in this particularly shot.
But explanation is good and understanding.
Thank you so much! Of course, grain, just like most things in colour grading, is quite subjective. It is fairly heavy so I understand where you're coming from. Thanks again!
videos is very good mam..but just a one thing was not right the " UI size of davinci" it is impossible to read any text on screen...plz try to increase the font size or ui size of davinci so we can watch the video on mobile also and can read text easily
I am so sorry, Abhi. I will sort this out in future videos to ensure everything is visible! Thank you for bearing with me. With this being my first video I was sure something wouldn't be right. I appreciate your feedback.
Any Tutorial for clean vibrant colours ???
Hey! I don't have a tutorial on this (as this is literally my first video) but I'll pop it in the list of suggestions for future videos. Thank you!
Hi, I think you made a mistake or left out an important part, the CST you made should not have made it look like Rec709, yet it does. You should have a very flat image. Did you convert in on the Timeline node? EDIT** never mind i found it later on in the video
Thank you for your note. I'll simplify my ways of working in future videos and keep everything on the Clip level to avoid any confusion. Thank you for bearing with me as I work out how to teach in a clear and straightforward way!
Can u make video on nodes?
That's a great topic! What are you interested in specifically? Types of nodes? Or perhaps node structure ideas?
Wow that's very nice. But it is realy hard to read the text. txt is realy small here.
Thank you and I'm really sorry about that! I'll fix the size of the UI in future videos and I'll also have each active panel pop out when used so it's clear what I'm doing. Thank you for bearing with me!
Can u share method 1 power grade?
Sure, here you go: drive.google.com/file/d/1cPoqT9VR7Q_hPOfe4ekXIsIiS6MjP5Rj/view?usp=sharing But the point is for you to mess around with the tools yourself so you can understand how they work. I really hope you'll do so in your own time. Best of luck in your colour grading journey!
@@marietafarfarova thanks so much 🙏
@@marietafarfarova sorry can't use the power grade, this .dpx file not .drx
@@dasnarebo I'm so sorry, my bad! Here is the .drx file: drive.google.com/file/d/13zp0q2IviMXoFO3MdLFoFndWwP9c8Q6q/view?usp=sharing
@@marietafarfarova thankyou ❤
Arri log for an R3D file? Interesting
Yes, because I’m working in Arri LogC3 as a timeline colour space and the RED footage has an IDT that takes it into LogC3.
Якo!
Много благодаря!
Would it be possible to show this for premiere users 😭
Hey! Personally, I've been using Premiere for about 8-9 years now and I honestly don't think it's meant for colour. If you're interested in colour grading, I recommend learning DaVinci Resolve or Baselight. Good luck!
@@marietafarfarova interesting! Thank you! Is premiere pro in your workflow at all at this point? Perhaps another video topic is about your workflow/organization? I'm kinda new and would LOVE something like that
@@BFMwithStackhouse Yes, I do all my editing in Premiere Pro and once the edit is picture-locked, I do a roundtrip to DaVinci Resolve for colour. There are two ways to conform an edit from another NLE in Resolve -by importing an .xml of the timeline + all the used media or by importing a clean ProRes file without any colour and doing a detect scene-cut in Resolve. Then proceed to colour as usual. Darren Mostyn has got a fantastic video that covers the Premiere to Resolve roundtrip in detail: czcams.com/video/C561OeNewME/video.html
Do you have a CG course?
No, I don't. Sorry!
@@marietafarfarova well whatcha waiting on? We want one!
hi, unfortunately your 27 or 32" screen is unreadable on ipad screens😉
Thank you for your feedback! Duly noted, I'll have the active panels pop out so things are visible and easy to follow in future videos. Appreciate you sharing your thoughts.
@@marietafarfarova Glad if it helps developping your channel
Why do you have that obnoxious music behind your voice. When people listen to tutorials, they want to hear every word you have to say nobody wants to hear music. This isn’t into drama and we’re not gonna get up and dance… Get rid of the stupid music!
What a bundle of joy you are, hey! Please take your negative vibes elsewhere. There are plenty of other CZcams channels to learn from and since my content isn't your cup of tea, I'd suggest you learn from another person. I wish you all the best.
It is very difficult to concentrate on your videos, the sweet sound of your voice does not allow me to concentrate, thanks!!
Lol 😄 Thanks for your comment.
Not split tonning ur personalty
