Aces isn't a "look"

I would argue Aces is a colour management framework but Aces drt's definitely have a look.

Thanks for the Tutorial. I had a bit of a play around with some VLog footage I had, and it definitely has a more filmic feel to it 😎👍

Thanks buddy!

Hi Douglas, Thank you for a great video. How did you toggle from one to the other setup? Also, would it be possible to do an Intro video explaining the differences/ advantages between DR Color Managed and ACES? Thanks again. Best.

Sure man! That could be a cool topic to talk about :) I toggled between the 2 using the play still feature from the gallery

Also, maybe show us your color management tab in your project settings please.... Thanks

how did you get your nodes shape changed like that rectangular?

Douglas are you planning create video about color grading some drone footage?

hey question ! best monitor for color grading on mac?

Thank you for this informative video ! I wanted to know why you activate the "use custom Max.input? Why don't you leave it unchecked ? In your demonstration, is the look built between the DW709 name and the ACES output conversion node ?

Thank you! I activate it manually because I'm used to do it like this. Although leaving it by default should give you the same results. In my demo, the look should be built in DWG prior to the first CST if you're used to work in that mode

Hey, quick question why did you picked the DWG instead of the camera space? Is it already transformed to DWG under the hood?

I think he converted the footage to DWG at frist in the color management page then he did that DWG to Aces in the color page .

​@thedouglasdutton in that case, what was your output colorspace in the color management page?

​@apagstudios1962 Was working in Yrgb which is no color management. But if you want to do this workflow, set your output color space to "none" and you'll be able to do the same thing

@@thedouglasdutton I definitely recommend and expect you to do this because when I use the magic mask, I still get small flicker errors. Other than PW, I haven't found a good explanation. I've heard of people solving this issue with a deflicker effect, but I haven't found a video related to it. Regards and best wishes.

Hey Doug! I think it's not very practical to teach beginners that ACES is a 'look' despite being partially true. There is a much bigger picture to both ACES as a workflow, and DRTs as a means to get an image to display. Both of these are now severely ignored in understanding why you need such tools and get labelled as something you just pick because it looks nice. While there are tehnical differences, the look is never supposed to soley come from a DRT. Rather the ideal DRT is one that can make any look possible while grading underneath.

Hey bro! Hoping you're doing well :) I think your point is totally valid and I recognise that I took shortcuts in my explanation. My intent wasn't to talk about the Aces colour management framework here but only the characteristic look that its DRT has. Having said that, I know that some people will pick a specific DRT to grade underneath depending on how close of a starting point from the look they're trying to achieve it provides. It all comes down to personal preference imo.

Can you show us how to GRADE in aces in the next video? Tysm

Awesome... How will CG Plate fit into the workflow?

Depends a lot about what kind of CS your vfx assets are in. They'll have to be input in the grade upstream either from camera space or another format like Aces

Sorry but this is complete nonsense!!! You didn't follow any of the ACES VWG discussions, did you? You absolutely have no clue what you are talking about in this video!

I'm sorry but this is a way to implement the Aces 1.3 drt in a dwg pipeline and I believe it's technically sound. What feels like nonsense to you? I'm curious?
