While I don't consider myself to be an expert colorist, I know the importance of color grading in storytelling. The use of warm tones can evoke feelings of happiness and warmth, making the audience feel comfortable and at ease. On the other hand, cooler tones can create a sense of mystery, suspense, or even a feeling of nighttime. Knowing how to color your work makes all the difference
Moreover, correcting skin tones and exposure can significantly enhance your video footage's quality. By making sure that the colors are balanced, the skin tones look natural, and the exposure is consistent throughout the footage, you can create a professional look that engages your audience and captures their attention.
The video is a real-time tutorial of my approach to color grading. I've made sure that every step of the process is captured so that you don't miss anything important. The video may be a bit long, but I hope it's helpful that way. Thank you for taking the time to watch, and I hope you find the video helpful.

i've been following your tutorials and i love your ability to come back to things you did in the past to add more elements to it or to take a different approach. very clean videos and good looking visuals !!
It's awesome to hear you say this. I just tried to continuously come back to things I didn't do as well as I'd like to have, and improve them. Constant progress, you know? Thanks for watching and for the nice words. I hope this helped.
literally just went through the previous color grading video yesterday haha. excited to learn more from this one bro, thank you.
Thanks brother! This video just is more refined and I didn’t like the previous version so I wanted to make sure this one did it better.
Man I love you’re sense of making videos. Taking the negative comments or comments that want a change and making a whole video with an awesome tutorial structure to teach us how to make awesome vids from that. Keep it up man.
Stoked to hear this from you. My goal is always to share what I know and when I learn more, regardless of how I learned it. Plus it’s a new idea for a new video which is always welcomed. Thanks for watching! And for this comment.
babe wake up TRENTORIALS made a new video
haha this comment has me laughing. glad you like the videos.
love your videos man keep up!
Thanks mate! Appreciate you being here!
love the chill atmosphere in the video! very insightful and informative. i gotta mention how brilliant the intro was from not only a creative aspect with the almost top down shot but how strategic it was in making the most easily skipped part of any video into one of the most visually engaging. great work again bro‼️
Thank you man. I find my average retention for videos is low due to my intros. So I’ve been trying to figure out how to keep them engaging. Especially for a video of this length.
@@Trentorials that’s interesting, poppy intros are always fun (and you can always skip them) so thats weird people see an intro and then dip right away. i find my retention dips towards the middle or just right before it.
didn't expect such intro haha, informative vid as always. keep crushing it man
Appreciate you bro. Glad to see you on the channel still. Thank you for your support.
@@Trentorials of course bro, keep dropping them videos, we need them.
Thank you for helping us to learn.
awesome to have you on the channel and i'm glad i'm able to help you further your video editing skills!
Yes brother, just don't stop.@@Trentorials

thank you so much for this
You're very welcome! glad you liked the video!
Love it!!!!
Thanks so much man!
I found great value from this video without spending forever watching someones tutorial. Thanks bro!
Really glad to hear it man. Lots more on the channel! Thanks for watching
Thanks alot bro👌👌
No problem 👍
I loved this tutorial we need more color grade videos in premiere please
What are you interested in seeing? Outside of the standard how to color grade (this video) there isn’t much to the analytical side of color grading….
I liked this a lot! I've just spent loads of money on luts, and they suck 😂 but, this video just goes to show you don't need them when you can do it like this. Great video, man!
luts are good, after you convert to rec 709.
But I’m glad to hear this helped! Thanks for watching!
@Trentorials I'm new to the whole grading process. Appreciate the heads-up, and your video helped a lot. Cheers, man ✌️
You earned a new sub man!! this helped me alooooot u don't even know 🙏
Really glad to hear it bro! Would love to see you stick around the channel! What was the main reason you subbed on this video, If you don’t mind me asking?!
@@Trentorials "Your explanations of color grading in Premiere Pro are unmatched by any other creator I've found, at least in my experience
Saving it for later
glad to hear that. I hope it helps ya out
Thanks❤
No problem, thanks foe leaving your comment
This was super helpful! Question, once I have downloaded the grain overlay how do I save it to premiere pro...kind of elementary but I am new to this. I tried to apply it to my clip but it was 5 seconds and very short and I couldnt extend 😅.
You have to duplicate the clip, and then change the blending mode, so it looks good on top of your footage. I suggest right clicking a once you drag it in your timeline, making it nested and then in the nested sequence, duplicating the overlay for as long as you need it to last. Then just extending the nested sequence in your main timeline.
Thanks from Syria
A long ways away! Thanks for watching!
Man when you made the mask to make skin color perfect I said WTF thanks for everything man! I wish you the best
Haha glad to help! Feel free to request other videos and I’ll be happy to make them!
@@Trentorials thanks man! The truth is I have a request that maybe you can do it, I watched one video of you to lighting in a budget.
Right now I’m working in a coffee shop making the content of social media, I have one light amarán 100d and one Chinese version of aputure mc ( that tiny rgb light).
My question is that how I achieve high key lighting only with those lights, maybe you can help me with that, I know it has to be super diffuse, I tried bouncing the light to the ceiling but is not good, I don’t know, maybe you have a better understanding of that and how to achieve that high key lighting look.
Thanks man
It’s hard to give you an exact answer since I don’t know your whole situation, what I can say, is that it doesn’t have to always be diffused, that is a preference you have to make. If you’re shooting wide, these lights are not great for that, they don’t have a great range. But since you have that Amran, I will get a globe diffusion, and put it on that
Can you do a video on how we can set up our premiere like yours ? Like the layout
Yes I can. Might be best as a short but maybe it can be a small bonus video.
yeaaaaaaay, love the video, love the approach, love the tutorial!
however, it'd be really cool if you'd do a deep dive on color grading theory, on what does every module/setting mean, like a long form, idk 1 or 2 hour long walk through of your understanding of color grading. for example, spend 10 minutes on explaining what is contrast and saturation, how do they work together, what happens when you move one up or down, what are you looking at in the graphs and stuff
Maybe. That’ll be a huge video. Maybe I’ll make a members only video for that one! It’ll be comprehensive but super time consuming to make. Let me know what you guys think if anyone else sees this comment too. Thanks for watching the video Lukas.
Hi! Love the video! Just a quick question, I tried downloading the film grain overlay in the description but it doesn't work, and I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong :')
make sure you read the instructions it gives you! It works for sure! if you need to, email me (in my about section) and i'll send it directly to you
@@Trentorials Thank you for the response! I tried downloading it again and read the instructions (maybe I'm missing something), and it didn't work :') I just emailed you about it, so hopefully emailing directly will work. Thank you again!
Hey, could you shoot a tutorial on how to make a grain effect like in a movie? For example, as in the movie Meet Joe Black
like ur videos tho!
could you link an example? the movie is shot on film. which in essence would have a film loo, meaning grain etc. which might be what you're talking about.
@@Trentorials “asiat- поток дело тонкое” there is a grain effect in this clip
(i’d pasted a link, but yt deletes my comment)
are you actually doing all of this for all videos and all clips?? Love your videos btw
I do this for every single video I make. though for instance most videos where I teach, like this, the clip and lighting doesn't change so I only have to color correct one shot then apply it to all the cuts. but I do individually color grade each scene according to what story or feeling I try to evoke. still learning how to be better at it myself.
and thank you for the kind words!
loved it!! tried to claim the 35mm but couldn't download it.. can you help me with that?
still having problems brother? let me know
@@Trentorials Yup😭
Email me. I’ll send you it
@@TrentorialsWhat’s your email?
It’s in my about!
I got the email to use the overlay pack but it doesn't let me download to adobe
check the updated description, I switched to gumroad, things should work much smoother now! sorry about that!
I tried to download the film grain from your bio but the captcha won't verify ;( I can't download
I’ll get a new link working soon. I’ve had some complaints about that one. The software seems to be a bit odd. Sorry about that.
@@Trentorials thank you brother, take your time
how do I download the grain? Is it just the image?
It’s a video. The link is in the description!
whats the font? and also make a video on hoe to use typography
Hey I just made a short about this font. But it’s called Mikela. I explain it more there but maybe I will. I do have a design degree but I am not sure it my best area of expertise
Bruh.. which Font you using bro?
The font is called Mikela
