Grading suggestions?

[Andreas Blidell]

HI

been working on a music video on and off for a while now and I can never find anytime to edit or grade this so I thought I'd get some grading suggestions from you guys! Feel free to create your own look and give me some inspiration! :smilewinkgrin:

Great image.

Personally, I would go warm & desaturated:

Always good a fun one. A simple grade for ya. Prefer desaturated too for a classic look.

 

[Derek Morrison]

Just a quick grade in RCX

[Domenic Barbero]

heres my take on it.

 

[Andreas Blidell]

Thanx guys, great suggestions!

 

[Brad Webb]

Everyone is going desaturated, so I figured i'd go very saturated. My focus was to bring out her blonde hair.

 

[António Fagundes]

This is useless without having seen the edit, but here it goes...

 

[Andreas Blidell]

Not to me António! It's good to see diffrent grades to pick bits and pieces from.

 

[Ben Scott]

Somewhere in between - warm but not oversaturated

 

[Mikey Piliero]

This didn't take much effort to look good. Amazing shot. What did you light it with?

 

[BrendanLeahy]

Curious what everyone thinks of this look!

 

[Kalulu Ngilo]

some tweaks in redcinex

a bit into the red/warmth

Marinus, would you mind screenshotting what settings you adjusted? I really love your look!

 

[BrendanLeahy]

Just a little fun

Joseph, I love your settings too! Would you mind posting or PMing me as well?

Btw, nice camera name - love the Four Seasons

 

[Marinus Brückmann]

Here comes another one...

@Brendon Glad, that you like it! Grading in Resolve. Redlog Film. Than ad a 3d Kodak 2383 LUT, balance black and whites, separate the skin tones and added some warmth too it, separated the bg and added some coldness. highlighted the nails and her eyes. all this done with parallel nodes. conclusion with a little contrast curve in a serial node and saturation down a little bit.. greetings, Marinus

A bit more muted than most of my grades - seems to fit the shot better. Slightly elevated blacks tinted red/purple to complement the little bit of green I introduced into the neutrals. Although it might be hard to notice the tint in the blacks if you're in a bright room... The hair is also probably a bit saturated, but its late! I might revisit this grade tomorrow...
