One of the best and most useful color grading tutorials I have found and I've watched at least one hundred! Thank you very much!
Finally, there is a clear and straightforward explanation/ tutorial on how to set up node tree. This video really saves me. Thanks very much.
Runhaar this has saved me HOURS! and is the only node structure I use. Your a great teacher that SHOWS and explains everything well. From day 1 of using this node structure my clients have been WOWED. I hope to book a one on one with you in the future. Defiently WORTH IT!
I just created a step by step note on my phone from this video. I kept coming back to yours because it's so helpful. ive made two videos with color grades all thanks to you. You rock!!
finally someone who is actually showing us how to do it properly!!! thank you
You have the most similar approach to the workflow I've been thinking about for over 3 years. It is a very good lecture. So cool! Dope.
You just changed my colorgrading life! Thank you so much!!
THANK YOU for finaly cutting it down to essentials.
THX Runhaar - you're simply the best!! Short & simple, straight to the point and excellent explanation of the critical points! Your node tree is the killer!!

Same here!
IMPORTANT - You can create your look inside of the CST's (add a serial node before the last CST). It will give you more flexibility as you are working in the DWG colorspace. If you do it after the second CST (rec 709), you can only make minor adjustments as you'll be working in a smaller colorspace. Also - Best to put the "Texture Node" in a serial and not in a parallel.

you gotta change to Cineon Film Log though before the LUT, right? regulating the gain of the LUT is weird though because with or with the compound node, it behaves overly strange...

@@hannestell If you use the davinci LUTS yeah. You should check out Cullen Kelly's channel. I think he made a Kodak 2838 LUT that has a DWG input and output. (free download). So you just chuck it on a node in between your cst's
@nikilragav

yea it was weird why you added the look after clipping down to 709. Might as well do the 709 LUT only once so you don't accidentally throw away data that could have been useful (e.g. highlights)
Wow. I need to rewatch this and follow along to fully understand. Mind blowing
Brilliant - I've had to lecture people with who don't know the difference between correction and grading and its as fundimental as framing a shot or lighting!

At first I thought this tutorial was going to be impossible, now I realize that it’s not only impossible to learn but, beyond what I thought I could do. Thanks for giving me the MacGyver version.
Great video mate! You explained everything very well. Only note I have is to be cautious of putting texture/spatial fx in a parallel node. You can get some funky effects from time to time. They’re better off left in a serial node.
THIS IS SO SO GOOD! Thank you for making this 😄👊
The best. Thanks a lot! This is exactly what I needed.
Thank you very much! That is really a great starting point for beginners, at least for me!
New to Da Vinci and this just made sense! Dankie meneer!
Very helpful, man. Thanks a lot! Cheers from Italy
Thank you very much. I have now got this structure locked. Amazing work man..!
thank you for your tutorials. keep going.
Thank you so much for this … node structure is pretty confusing and this makes it really clear and easy to implement.
Thankyou so much, this is the only video I need to understand nodes as a new editor
I learned a lot from the KZread channel which discusses davinci resolve, courses, and discussions with friends, and it took me a long time to understand, and now I understand better thanks to you. In the end you explained very well the basic and fast usage of this node. Thank You

i'm so beginner to using davinci resolve for my color grading process. finally i understand how to use node correctly. Thank you sir ❤️
This is such a good video man. Thank you.
I come from the audio mixing world and we call this approach top down mixing. Making our broad and big strokes of eq change and compression at the end of our chain and tailoring each instrument to that. I’ve just started playing with Davinci resolve since the new iPhone and shooting everything in log. 2024 my goal is to have higher quality instagram reels and your channel has been a great resource of inspiration and information
