A good grade starts on set! Take the time to get your lighting and camera settings right when filming, it'll make coloring a lot easier.

I've recently switched to DaVinci after using FCX. Really happy about it! Also love that you're showing darker skin tones to demonstrate grading. Canon is a good brand for our shade.

1.) Use a color picker on set along with zebras and false colors as lighting cannot be drastically changed in post . 2.)Make sure your screen(s) is/are calibrated or have more than one so that you can balance between the two if you can afford a second monitor. What looks good on your screen may not translate every where else. 3.) Make sure your colors on set (ie. model or actor clothing , light color temperature etc.) fit your mood or color scheme as this will make it difficult in the grade process to fix in post . 4. Color grade from a mood still taken from a bigger budget project , this will allow you to start with an idea on hand and check back and forth when grading.

You might be cold with coloring 🔥

quick, to the point, and most importantly no bullshit intro.. subbed

Hey, just wanted to add. If you use secondaries, accuracy with your selection is very important. A way to simplify the selection process is to adjust the sliders to more accurately represent the range you are adjusting, and to blur/feather the selection. that is all

You are amazing! I just found your channel and am binge watching them all, learning so much!

So glad I found your channel! Great stuff! Thank you for taking the time to do this!

Exactly what I needed to hear! Thought I knew a lot when I first clicked on the video, but you opened my eyes to something I was doing wrong and never realized. Thank you!!

Love how chill and straight forward you are, man. Earned an instant subscriber :)

Always loved your videos.. No extra BS. Super short, to the point and ultra informative. Keep doin the great work boss!

Thank you for consistently providing us filmmakers with good information! Love your channel! Keep it up!

thank you for your work, just found you here, and now watching thru all your videos. really nice content and a great human.

Brooooo, can you do a video on FCPX regarding color correction. that would be fantastic..

Real talk - that secondary tip is exactly what I've been needing! I'm used to adjusting that in lightroom but I never knew where to find it in premiere! It's about to be a wrap on this color grading! Seriously thank you 💯

Great video man! Everything was spot on.

Color grading could literally make or break your videos, thanks man

Getting your setting correct before / during filming helps a lot in post too. Thank you for the tips.

I am still new in this industry but I have followed your tips and my clients see me as a pro thanks alot

Great advices as always. I will gonna use your tips for my videos. Keep up your great work 🙌

These are great tips! Thanks for sharing!

Humbly dropping it...dope bro

maaann thank you for making this short and yet informative video!

I follow a number of people on youtube and instagram and a few of em have squarespace tags but I chose to use yours because I appreciate the value and thoughtfulness you bring in all your videos and the fact that of all the youtubers I follow, you're the only one whose free LUT giveaways I've ever been able to grab. I have em as a just in case even though I don't use em. I've been deep in some photography instead of video as of late. Anyways, this is my way of indirectly paying you for your content man. Thanks a mil! Keep it up!

Great tips, y. Always got good stuff.

Great video: If I could add one more-during the Color Correcting stage, avoid crunching the blacks too much and losing detail in the darker range, also making sure the whites aren’t blown out-The Wave Form Monitor in Premier’s Lumetri Scopes is an excellent tool for detecting whether the image is properly exposed. There are some great tutorials on KZread on how to use the Lumetri scopes.

This video was way more better than I expected

Hey man. just wanted to say that I love your videos. I like to consider myself a professional film maker and you always post the most insightful videos. I either learn something new or find reassurance in your advice. There is a lot of second guessing in this business and your like my therapist lol. Keep up the great work!

This is very Dope my Guy.. I’m just starting out and I got some good nuggets of this video.

Some tips I found were really helpful for me, of course it's always situational... but first and foremost I boost saturation, contrast, darken my blacks, and then adjust exposure accordingly- those are always my first steps, then changing temp if need be, I then create a 2nd adjustment layer with my creative lut and changing the intensity of that.

These are solid tips! One other thing that I'd add is to keep it simple. It's easy for new colorists to assume that complex grades are the only route to a good image, so that becomes the norm. In reality, keeping grades simple nearly always produces better results as it forces you to think critically about where an image needs to go, rather than mindlessly tweak (and stress) an image until it kinda works.

Great video, thanks for sharing!!

Appreciate your videos man, super helpful! Peace

Very Helpful. Thanks.

Thanks for the tips

Dope video. Great tips

solid vid as always

A professional colourist is someone that does it as a career. Normally they have a whole studio with the physical colour correction hardware as well as software. It's really important for film and TV.

Awesome video man!

super je kiff le travail que tu fais et je suis fan de toi

Your ‘opinion’ is spot on 🙂

You mentioned "practising". Me being a newbie...how/what would I go about practising colour grading? Do I try to copy the look of someone else? What do I do/whats the process of approaching this as a newbie??

Would love a video on how to color grade in a way that makes Black skin pop and not look washed out, like knowing what the general principles are based on our different undertones

THANK YOU SO MUCH

Thank you!

OMG Thanks for enlightening me. Been using HSL for years and thanks you to I JUST NOW learned you can click, THEN HOLD and drag to select color. Was selecting a single color and then tweaking the sliders... Sheeesh Lol. Also, really great breakdown. I'd include "banding" or "breaking colors" to the list. But I guess that falls within over saturation. Keep doin your thing

I’ve been needing this. I thought V-Log was hard to colorgrade but seem like it’s me.

Had to save this video thanks!

Awesome video homie!!!! A big hug from Brasil 🤟🙇‍♂️👊🔥

Wow i have been using the hsl secondary but i never knew that you can pick multiple colors with it 😮 thanks for the tip!

dope I needed this, any other tips you guys want to share. I am an amateur

Good work brother I will soon do it one day

Thanks for these tips, color grading is truly a mystery. You can always be wrong and right on at the same time.

Goat 🐐 Thanks man. 🙏🏾

Solid advice.

Thanks man.

Great Video man Thanks for sharing :-)

One thing that is usually left out is that you properly calibrate your monitors. There are so many people who just leave their monitors as-is out of the box, or actually tweak the monitor to make the video their watching look good. They really don’t get the concept of why a properly calibrated monitor is important. Even if they just learn how to calibrate a monitor to SMPTE colorbars, it makes a huge difference. That being said knowing how to use scopes properly should help offset a poorly calibrated monitor.

Very good, thanks

Great contend man!
