    I've been using cameras since the 70s and have been a 3D animator for 30 years. Blender's colour transport system is mind numbingly amazing and raw export is great but this really is the missing part! My God this is a seriously good piece of code (I've prgrammed since 1980 too!) and the video is impressive all the way through however the film emulsion emulation is something I've never seen elsewhere and have tried to emulate myself before, bloody amazing work sir! I know you have to make a living but do, after sales die off, consider giving this to The Blender Foundation perhaps?

    I bought this at the last sale and got to tinker with it. The compositor is pretty slow pre-4.1 (all the more reason to update), but the controls are amazing, give great results quickly, and honestly has the best film grain I've seen implemented in Blender. Way to go!!

    • @cg_cookie
      @cg_cookie  Před měsícem +4

      Thank you! Luckily more speedups are coming to the compositor! Looks like eventually both will be able to use the GPU

    I thought this was gonna be another lame just use punchy or up the saturation in comp video, but I'm blown away. This is what I've wanted to develop for so long now, but never got around to it. THANK YOU. This should be implemented natively in Blender imo.

    Every now and again you find a video that makes you go "Oh! That's what was missing!"
    This is very much one of those videos and this information should be mandatory for anyone wanting to learn colour theory.
    I personally use Resolve for post work, but this addon is seriously making me consider keeping it in Blender.
    Amazing job. I'll be sharing this video around 😁

  • @iLikeTheUDK
    @iLikeTheUDK Před měsícem +1

    The "perceptual" slider for the saturation is fantastic! Previously I only thought making the saturation look like that is via subtractive saturation, which is a pain in the ass to actually do in Blender's compositor, but turns out that with some more clever math you can do this in a way that lets you control the effect way more. Thank you so very much. I hope you expand this tool to work with video and image sequences, or make an add-on for Resolve that introduces this perceptual saturation control to it because I would find it extremely handy

    Great add-on! Is it possible to add an option for LUTs. That would make color adjustments in blender complete.

  • @patrickwilson3d

    Great add-on been using it recently, I’d love some pre and post transform histograms etc to monitor levels a bit more precisely.

  • @paindavoine_design
    @paindavoine_design Před měsícem

    This addon has a lot of potential !
    For me right now it's not yet fully ready for production, because of few bugs and constraints, like the fact a correction is applied also in material preview, which is not convenient at all (disabling the compositor in material preview will just leave a very dark scene)... same thing during the rendering the colors are way off (the scene is almost black) so it's impossible to see if something goes wrong while it's rendering.
    Some other bugs, performance issues but nothing too serious.
    I think it's a matter of time but soon it will be difficult to work without this addon !

  • @myztazynizta

    Can you add LUT feature to your addon?

      That would be very helpful.

  • @digital0785
    @digital0785 Před měsícem +1

    definitely going to have to grab this esp because you can make presets i stopped doing post stuff for work because 99% of the times clients didn't even notice the work that went into it but k cycles let me do some of it at render time and this will let me do the color correction stuff as well so HUZZAH

    • @cg_cookie

      Exactly why I wanted it too! Thank you!

  • @Butterbilk
    @Butterbilk Před 8 dny

    This is awesome Jonathan! Am I able to slot in my own custom compositing nodes while retaining the side panel functionality of the addon? Will the passes enabled on the render layer have any effect? I’ll definitely have to give this a try.

    Bought the addon anyways... Tnx

  • @TR-707
    @TR-707 Před měsícem

    colorgrading is a bottomless rabbit hole! I am glad AGX is on by default though but are the render actually dull? the default setting is already a colorgraded preset in Blender i thought. Anyway great video and good luck to anyone even toying with the idea of color grading correctly

  • @aeonbreak4728
    @aeonbreak4728 Před měsícem

    so how do you know how much you should tweak inside blender with ambient lights, sun, point lights etc to get the look you want VS using these post processing tools?

    • @cg_cookie
      @cg_cookie  Před měsícem +2

      Good question! I do as much as possible with lights and exposure, and then nudge it just slightly with post processing. Compositing generally shouldn't be doing the heavy lifting when it comes to values

    • @chasingdaydreams2788
      @chasingdaydreams2788 Před 9 dny

      ​@@Carlosnl16bruh to use this add on you are meant to switch to standard in Blender's render panel. He says so in the video. The guy you are replying to wants to use punchy with the add on's many other features

  • @jimmyleach5308

    Trying to follow along and build myself before buying. I'm at 9:52, how is the seperate color and combine color incorporated into this graph? Cool video! Maya user coming over to blender, excited to see that blender has a compositing feature, this is really cool!

    • @cg_cookie
      @cg_cookie  Před 26 dny

      Oh! Good question, it's not used in the screenshot but they're just there to show where the U and V inputs of the node group are coming from

    Still a Bit Tricky to understand what it Does or do in general... other than the Generic Answers i heard...
    But does help me understand it a Bit Better and Awesome that it comes with a Plugin...

    The documentation on Blender Market mentions "It does not fully work in the viewport on MacOS. This will be fixed in future versions of Blender."

    I clicked for like "if you do this tweak and do this do that etc." but in reality they're doing demonstration for an add-on for money. blender getting more hilarious with this kinda add-on selling futures.
    but non the less bro blender is industry standart.
