upcoming short shot on scarlet

[Matt Ryan]

I finally got some time and I've put together a breakdown video that shows the effect each node has on the final grade.

Check it out here: http://vimeo.com/56460595

Does anyone know how to embded vimeo videos on here?

Also there's more info on these grades on the blog...

Press the insert video button on the control bar and enter the video link. It's right next to the photo embed button.

Hey Juan, when are you going to post about the film emulation LUT? Is that something within Resolve, or is it a 3rd party plug-in that you purchased separately? I'm going to try to post more .r3ds; it's crazy/awesome to see how people process them (and fun, even for bystanders).

 

[Juan Melara]

Thanks Matt!

Mike P: I'll write up a detailed post about LUTs, but for now:

I use two Kodak 2393 LUTs. One is pretty standard - but it imparts a pretty strong look on the footage. Green/blue shadows, warmish highlights. I use it whenever I want to try and make something look similar to a feature film. It's the LUT im using for these grades.

The second is a custom version that doesn't tint the shadows green or warm up the highlights, but overall it still gives you film like colours. I use it when I want a slicker/cleaner look but still want to work with 2393 colours.

You really have to know what you're doing, cause a film emulation LUT can be hard to work with. When you first bring footage in, it will look contrasty, unsaturated and may have colours that don't look right. Correctly balancing the image in your first node, sorts most of these issues out. But it sometimes will feel that you're fighting against the LUT to get the colours that you want. So its not appropriate for all situations. A custom input LUT can also be used to solve these problems...

An easier way may be to take a look at the SpeedLooks LUTs Matt Ryan talks about in this thread:
http://www.reduser.net/forum/showth...r-Speedgrade-Resolve-Scracth-Lustre-FilmLight
They seem to get the same results but with a lot less work.

The standard 2393 LUT I use is very similar to the version Bjorn gives out in this post here:
http://www.reduser.net/forum/showth...709-LUT-Anyone-have-one-Made-one-Graeme/page4
You'll need to convert it to a format that Resolve can use. Read my post in the same thread to find out how to do this. I'll have to ask Bjorn if I can distribute the version I've already converted...

when posting click on the insert image tab in the control bar to insert. It's up by link, email, unlink, then photo, then video. Click on it and paste the url to your image and hit okay. That's all.

I had some free time today so I put this together in resolve - just for fun. Philipe I placed a copyright on image as to be clear who owns material, probably silly paranoia :tongue_smilie:

Alright, I had a bit of fun with these in Resolve as well. First 2 I added grain, the rest are clean. Tried a couple different variations. Always a fun exercise.

...We had one light panel, one 2k fresnel and two 650.

Thanks for posting these excellent R3D files. These samples really go to show the importance and power of lighting, nice job Philipe. Below are my RCX experiments:

Nice Job Philip, the first one looks like a lot with our final grade.
