    Over the past few days I have watched so many videos on grading drone footage that I've literally lost count.
    I couldn't follow any of them at all and even the so called supposedly simplest video was near impossible to understand.
    This video is literally a breeze of fresh air!
    Absolutely everything has been taught in very simple terms and it's really really easy to follow.
    Thank you so much for such a fantastic video tutorial. It's so very much appreciated.

      Here's my video on correcting color on the DJI Air2S using a proper color chart for more objectivity. Increasing saturation and contrast arbitrarily is the way I did it back in 2015 when I didn't understand how to correct log footage. The method presented makes camera engineers cringe. Watch my video to see a more correct way to do it.

    @mdoering Před 3 lety

    Another great video, thanks! I had just watched a similar video from another CZcamsr that was color correcting and grading footage from an alley way shoot from a stationary camera. He also went with the orange and teal look and used grading to show how to bring some true yellow back to a few key elements on screen. Between the two of you, I've gained a much better understanding and a lot more confidence in my color correction and grading.

  • @bryandooley5453

    I am very new to post processing and have been very overwhelmed by it. Thanks for breaking it down to make it much more understandable. Now I need to figure out how to do this with Premiere Elements. I hope I can find some videos where someone can explain it this well while using PE! Thanks so much!

    Stewart explained the concepts as well as the procedure. I am new to the game and use Davinci Resolve so a different editor. I have watched a number of colour grading videos and this is the only one that resonated. I'm not good at it yet but my videos are better because of the advice in this video.

    This is brilliant thanks a million, simple direct, to the point and the pace was perfect to keep up with.
    In terms of a full video with multiple clips, is it the case that after colour correcting each clip individually, I could expect to get away with applying a grade to a single adjustment layer and have it span the entire timeline?

  • @libitronaerialdroneservice

    I remember seeing this video when it was first published. At the time, I tried to stick to the "procedures" you outlined. Over time, I got away from this work flow. I watched the video again yesterday because I was struggling a bit with grading an evening shot. Getting back on track here really helped with my work. In particular, after using the curves, I really did not have much grading to do at all. I got a cleaner result. Great job.

  • @reflexfilms
    @reflexfilms Před 3 lety

    Awesome fundamentals explained there - i was waiting for you to throw a shape mask on for the sky.... because the horizon is always in the same place (unless you get on the pitch dial) - so
    you can effectively dial in a grad ND look for the sky (if it suit your aesthetic)- but that might be par tof module 2.
    love your presentation style and clarity.

  • @alanabley525
    @alanabley525 Před 11 měsíci

    This is excellent, thank you. I like to trim out unwanted footage and trash it in Quicktime before opening FCP but there is a problem using H264 and CineLike. Quicktime doesn't recognize this combination; others on the DJI forum have had similar problems. Do you use something to cull the footage you don't want before editing to save some space on your HD?

  • @jesuschristiscallingyou953

    It's funny how I've already learned this stuff, yet watching it from someone else makes me feel a stronger sense of discovery and gratification I felt when I was learning it by myself through experimentation.
    I already was familiar with photography and editing, so I was applying it to the drone footage. The information just hits differently coming from someone else and I feel even more pleasure. 😁

    Thank you Stewart! Very helpful! What does the DJI LUT for Dlog-M to REC 709 exactly do? It is my understanding that it is the fast way to convert the log footage into a somewhat acceptable format? If I would use the Dlog LUT at first, can this help me to save time? I would then apply similar adjustment like to showed, but they might require less adjustment and then I could add a custom LUT as a third step? Thanks in advance!
