This channel is a breath of fresh air! No overlong intros, no goofy clickbait thumbnails, no overproduced personality-based Peter McKinnon razzle-dazzle, there aren't jump cuts every three seconds, no gimbals or sliders, and no RGB lit walls. Just a sober guy who knows his shit and gets straight into useful information. I don't use DaVinci Resolve and this was an instant subscribe.

Hi Rocky. Good to know that you like the pace etc. Hard to judge when just starting on a channel. Appreciate the feedback. Thank You. Darren

Being new to Davinci, this is the best tutorial I've seen! Really concise and clear. Can't wait to watch all your other tutorials. Appreciate your work!!

I'm very grateful to you for all i have learnt in this past few weeks.I stumbled on your channel and since I did,I have not regretted it.I have been watching most of your tutorials and I must say that it has become like a proper course for me.Thank you so much.

Great! This one helped me a lot to partially overcome my issues with uncertainty with the visual feedback when attempting to "color" my videos with my non-professional equipment... Thank you so much for this - and related - videos.

Amazing tysm!! Have watched so many of these and this brought a lot of clarity

By far the best teacher on the internet. I appreciate the calm and professional to-the-point approach and the knowledge level is over the top. Impressive! Thank you for sharing!

the scopes are really important in the grade. The more you get used to them, the quicker you can balance your shots. Good to hear your work is improving. Mine too!

Finally! I was looking exactly for precise white and black reference values, it was really hard to find this information elsewhere, thank you very much!

Great explanation Darren, that's exactly the info I was looking for about the video reference lines! Cheers for this.
