Help with colour grading footage in da Vinci

[Khurum Khan]

Hi all,

I've recently shot a short film and now looking to colour grade it. I've applied a basic power grade out and it looks good.
But when I checked the colour space transform all the settings are for Arri.

Does anyone know what the red settings should be for:

Input colour space
Input gamma
Output colour space
Output gamma

Also when I create a node and try add the basic film looks installed in davinci nothing shows. but it does show when I just clock apply grade on the footage without a node.
But this makes it looks terrible. I would love to get some help on red footage workflow in davinci.

thanks

IPP2 Color Workflow

Input Color Space/Gamma - REDWideGamutRGB/Log3G10
Output Color Space/Gamma - What you want to master to. Typically Rec.709/Gamma 2.4.

Using the RED Transforms you would use Rec.709/BT.1886 as they are used interchangeably now industry-wide. You can generate these LUTs for free in REDCINE-X Pro or download them from RED.com.

Davinci's Film Looks are designed for an sRGB (Rec.709) Color Space and Cineon Log curve. With Blackmagic Design's blessing I properly created Resolve Film Looks Output Transforms for IPP2 as apart of philmColor R3 as they are very popular as 3D LUTs. This allows you to both use them directly on top of footage as well as using them in camera.
