COLOR GRADING explained in darktable

[@camperdav]

Hi Rico! Thanks for your efforts in making this video. It is very appreciated!!! I'm very new to Darktable. Learned a lot, just figure out the snapshot and color balance tool! Thank you so much!

[@RicoResolves]

Awesome man! Welcome to darktable!

[@vs9400]

Thank you for the video. I was searching for something like this for a long time.

[@RicoResolves]

You're very welcome! Thank you for this kind feedback!

[@williamjanzen7529]

Hi Rico I appreciate the information you put out for using darktable. I am wondering if you could make a video on how to get the creamy look on photos that seems to be popular with alot of lightroom users. I can't seem to find anyone who edits that style on darktable. Thank you.

[@FullLifeCrew]

Thank you for the information.

[@RicoResolves]

You're very welcome!

[@marcondesoliveira6048]

Como sempre o guru do Darktable ensinando técnicas sofisticadas, aprendo muito com você, parabéns e vida longa!!!!!!

[@RicoResolves]

Obrigado, agradeço seu feedback!

[@RicoResolves]

What did you guys think about this tutorial? Would you like me to create more of these in depth tutorials, or do you prefer the creative tutorials? Don't forget, in a few weeks from now I'll release a new travel series! Here's the image, that way you can follow along: pixabay.com/photos/girl-model-blonde-forest-green-2446828/

[@abhishiktaghosh4541]

Speaking for myself, I'd like to have you make both types of videos, as both are equally educational and helpful to me. And it would be highly appreciated if you can do a detailed video on different masks (like, parametric or drawn).😍 Have a good week ahead.

[@RicoResolves]

@@abhishiktaghosh4541 Thank you for this suggestion! Please have a look at this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJnYnoujoLVsfck Did this help or would you rather have a more extensive explanation?

[@abhishiktaghosh4541]

@@RicoResolves This helped to clear my concept so much! I followed the steps and it worked to some extent! (Well, in my case, half of the person became purple instead of only the shirt 😂) As I said, your tutorials do wonders and you are such a kind and helpful person. Thank you so much.

[@RicoResolves]

@@abhishiktaghosh4541 So awesome to hear from you again! I'm glad this tutorial was helpful to you 😁👍!

[@max199494]

thank you so much! i try to learn darktable a bit because the monthly pay-method of adobe isnt for me^^...very helpful. darktable isnt as confusing as i thought

[@RicoResolves]

Awesome!

[@Blind-Matter]

Awesome work! Keep it up man!

[@RicoResolves]

Thank you!

[@alexandrarebelheart]

Awesome videos Rico! Thanks so much!

[@RicoResolves]

You're welcome!

[@OttoOome]

As always Great explaining. A next level would be a zoom to what you are doing.

[@RicoResolves]

What do you mean Otto? Like in the previous video? Zooming in?

[@alexk7837]

@@RicoResolves Yes, zooming in would be great.

[@RicoResolves]

First! Helaas Kian, dit keer ben je te laat :D!

[@bubulubugoth]

To use a complementary style of color grading, split tone would be the tool to go?

[@RicoResolves]

Hello bubu, split toning only let's you colorize the shadows and highlights. It won't affect the midtones.

[@youngvanocomedy1118]

How's it going fam, nice tips. Stay up with the bell on.

[@RicoResolves]

Thank you for watching!

[@mrgm148]

Nice video. Por fin algo de darktable

[@RicoResolves]

Si, pero una otra vez en aproximente cuatro semanas me voy a "upload" un nuevo tutorial de darktable! Gracias por tu tiempo y tu comentario. Lo aprecio!

[@mrgm148]

@@RicoResolves Wow respuesta en español. Mil gracias.

[@RicoResolves]

@@mrgm148 si, hablo un poco español pero suficiente para una conversación 😁. Me gusta la idioma de España mucho y práctico con un app se llama DuoLingo!

[@Phixx6]

Thanks very helpful

[@RicoResolves]

Thank you Philip!

[@alexk7837]

Dear Lord, eyeballing your tiny mouse pointer and minuscule text is so hard considering that app layout/options change with new versions. Any chance you can zoom in when making changes so we can clearly see the options you select?

[@RicoResolves]

Yea, I have a colored mouse pointer now too. I'll activate it on my next video. Zooming in is a bit more harder to do with Davinci Resolve than it was with premiere

[@A1Bokeh]

so theoretically you can basically use the color balance module to do all the editing ?

[@RicoResolves]

In this case: Yes! In many other cases: Yes! However, the color zones module is another powerful tool because you can change the hue (colors) with it. Something the color balance module can't! Both are my favorites!

[@wrzlbrnth4092]

@@RicoResolves NO colour balance is only one of several color modules, each has its own particular strength and weakness.

[@RicoResolves]

I've added the link to the image in the pinned comment. That way you can follow along!

[@A1Bokeh]

hans habereder Lol he literally jazzed up the picture with the one module so in some cases you obviously can

[@A1Bokeh]

Rico's Story yo Rico another cool video would be how to add items in the background in gimp. Like adding clouds and trees etc

[@frankdusoswa9583]

Weer wat geleerd Rico. Ik vind beide tutorials prima, waarom wissel je het niet af? Donderdag in depth en zondag creative :-) Het is maar een idee.

[@RicoResolves]

Goed idee Frank! Ben momenteel ook opzoek naar nieuwe ideeën. Binnenkort een nieuwe reis serie!

[@frankdusoswa9583]

Rico, ik zag jouw naam een keer voorbij komen bij de tutorials van Bruce Williams. Erg goede tutorials en Bruce is een goede leraar maar Bruce duikt erin en zorgt dat hij alles weet als hij een tutorial ergens over maakt. Maar Bruce verteld daar dan ook uitgebreid over. Misschien een idee om zo'n lange tutorial, bijvoorbeeld over de filmic of the noise reduction module kort en bondig samen te vatten in de van jou bekende stijl.

[@RicoResolves]

@@frankdusoswa9583 fantastisch idee Frank, dat heb ik met de afgelopen twee geprobeerd en de videos over de split tone module bijv. Bruce is idd ontzettend uitgebreid. Hij maakt in depth tutorials over modules, mijn stijl is meer creatief idd.

[@frankdusoswa9583]

Ik had hem al door. Ik heb vandaag zijn video over de retouch module gezien. Erg goed hoor! Maar een lange zit met 41 minuten.

[@RicoResolves]

[@fasolasty]

where did you get darktable ver 2.7?

[@RicoResolves]

Thank you for asking Karol! Todd Prior gave me the build for this version. I'm looking to share it with all of you pretty soon :). The only downside is that your presets might not be backwards compatible

[@fasolasty]

@@RicoResolves are there many differences except interface?

[@RicoResolves]

@@fasolasty It's got a few changes yes. Like a basic adjustment module and dedicated RGB Color curve module.

[@okay1904]

Genius.

[@RicoResolves]

Thanks man, much appreciated!

[@spencer2596]

I’ve been trying to search on the web for a while. Is there any way to export a lut/3Dlut from darktable (i.e. a .cube file) to be used in another program? Thank you

[@RicoResolves]

Great question! Unfortunately there isn't. You can however, use LUTs in darktable 2.7. Styles and presets can still be exported accordingly.

[@RicoResolves]

Thanks Jules, glad you liked it!

[@iamkian]

haha.. helaas 2de. ik ga even kijken. Like #1 is gegeven :-) 5 kleure schemas. die kende ik nog niet.

[@RicoResolves]

Jouw comment zat nu in mijn spam box! Bijzonder! De eerste comment bevat nu ook de foto, op die manier kan je zelf meedoen!

"I'm going to move this slider a little and then move that one to the left" does not explain what you are doing or why. Sorry to waste your time reading this post but you've wasted mine.
