Really great Darren. When BMD released 17 my immediate reaction was that there were lots of bells and whistles that people will jump on, but the HDR tool to me seemed like the one that Colorists would really appreciate. Although there are a few others as well. Can't tell you how many times I have grabbed luma keys on specific nodes and through many other controls got to the same point as using this tool. Even in skin tones, I have found that having that control on the roll off of specular highlights and highlights has already improved my workflow. Will be quite exciting as they work out all the bugs to use in full production. Anyway, really happy you released this one, there are a few things that I learned that here, that I didn't get from playing around with it. And that my friend is well worth the time it take watching your tutorials. Soon to be 10k subs - really happy for you. Wish I could click the "Like" more than once.

Is it better to use the default color management and then use a CST? That way you can make primary adjustments before the transform (thats the order of operations right?) and also take advantage of the saturation clipping and luminance mapping within the CST?
@DarrenMostyn3 жыл бұрын
Hi Jamie. Good to see you here - Ive seen some of your channel - good stuff! Using CST allows you to choose where in the node tree the transform happens so a little more control on that side, however colour managed workflow uses saturation and tome mapping too - you need to go to the custom setting and they are under DRT.

I used to shoot in rec709 in the picture profile but people on KZbin recommend to shoot in rec2020. So I want to give that a try. But if I use the colortransform effect on my node in the color tab, should I choose rec.2020 for color input, and rec.2100HLG for input Gamma? And if I use the timeline color space of rec709. gamma 2.4 will the colors I see on my laptop screen be the same as the colors I see when rendering the video?

My guess is output of the LUT is Rec709 and the managed flow does a implicit conversion at the end. Thanks

Thanks for another really well done video. I love the new Managed Color/Wide Gamut combination, particularly for the way that the Sony Slog3/SGamut3.Cine input transform works on footage from the Sony A7s III (immediately great color and contrast). But all is not perfect: unfortunately the Input transforms for Canon EOS R5 (CAnon Cinema Gamut/Canon Log) don't seem to be working nearly as well, and I am getting colors that look oversaturated and slightly wrong. And sadly Blackmagic have not yet produced other input transforms that I would really like to see, such as DJI Cinelike-D, DJI D-LogM; Sony Cine 2, etc. One interesting one is how to handle the iPhone 12 Pro Max. Currently Resolve automatically sets the Input to Rec.2100 HLG, but the image appears very wrong on screen, with all the image up too high in the histogram. You can fix that, but it takes a fair amount of work. I wonder if Dolby Vision means a new Input space, or whether Rec.2100 HLG is correct, and they are simply doing a bad job of the transform. Or possibly I am doing something wrong?

Hey Darren! Your videos are the coolest. Question: With the more granular nature/control of the HDR tools in Resolve, why would we continue using the primary color wheels? I've learned boat loads about color as of late thanks to you and Cullen. And now after seeing the ability to adjust and add zones, adjust their falloff, etc I'm wondering why not grade with HDR only? With the normal primary wheels I'm seeing that I can get most of the way on my grading with only adjusting gain, lift, constrast, pivot and saturation. So maybe that's the point - Use primary to get most of the way, and then jump to HDR if needed for other stuff. I saw you do that with a beach scene in another video. Anyway, thanks for any thoughts whenever you have time!

Hi Darren, great stuff, may I ask 3 questions! 1) In the latest version of Resolve the wide gamut setting in project settings color management is called 'HDR DaVinci Wide Gamut Intermediate' - should I stick with that in general for best quality in SDR and HDR ? Not clear on why there's a need to use anything else ? 2) For project settings/output color space when working in HDR, there are endless confusing combinations. I thought Rec2100 ST2084 was the TV standard - but I only see you using Rec2020 ST2084 / P3D65ST2084 what is the difference between these and when should I use each one? What are the standards to best stick too (a video on this would be amazing!) 3) I'm transcoding RAW files from SonyA7SIII for use in resolve. Do you have any advice for what input colour space I should use in conjunction with Question 2. For example leave as Slog3/S-Gamut3 or set to Rec2020PQ . Or does it not really matter.

I am working color managed and with DaVinci wide gammut intermediate in the project settings. What would be the correct input color spaces for the footage? GH6 recorded in V-Log so that's fine and recognized automatically. But what would make sense for the Mini 3, which recorded D-Cinelike 10bit, and GoPro, that recorded 8bit Protune flat? Is it just sRGB perhaps? Or just set to bybass color management for that kind of footage?

Blackmagicdesign should be paying you to make their educational content, you have a knack for providing just the right amount of info, without dumbing things down too much. What i would love to see is how do I deal with footage shot in (S-)log when working in wide gamut - i got some very funky results when changing to use wide gamut. Do the clips need to have their input colour set to them appropriate log and gamut? It seems like using LUTs aimed at Rec.709 aren’t very useful now, i guess i need to get better at grading!

Loved this one. After seeing your videos I finally got comfortable saying bye to Premiere Pro for my video editing and coloring work, and it's been great. And this video is just gold. That part of the color page was like a mystery that I now understand just a little. One question, and it's probably because Blackmagic have changed their menus. Both in the last Resolve v17 build that I was using and in the 18b build, there is no Da Vinci Wide Gamut. What I see is "HDR DaVinci Wide Gamut Intermediate". Are those the same thing?

yes effectively. The RCM has changed a bit but you will be fine...they made it easier. Glad to have you on board.

That was INCREDIBLY helpful. I have a much better grasp on the wheels and HDR mode. I will get better results because of this. I'm a little confounded though.. it's because a lot of this is new to me. Why would I grade in HDR and export/render in bt.709? I previously worked with PowerDirector, who claims to support HDR, and was literally crying after two weeks because it seemed I WASN'T learning and applying new knowledge. No matter how well I set the exposure while shooting Dlog in the Huron mountains, PowerDirector converted EVERYTHING to rec.709. (Their claim of HDR support is misleading.) So I got Resolve A. Because I'm committed and it has a better interface for me to grow my chops. B. Because I can finally actually edit my footage to make HDR videos. Terms like rec.709, rec.2020, HLG, Dlog, HDR10+ have all entered my vernacular within the last 6 weeks. As I understand it (without checking my notes), hdr10+ (one of these standards, anyway) will translate extremely well to BOTH HDR and SDR devices by telling each how to read the file. Help me understand why almost everything I look up exports in rec.709. Or at least why anyone would do that after grading for HDR. My goal is to grade my footage for HDR and produce a file that is an acceptable industry standard, will look good on old and newer devices alike, and will impress the ladies. 😜✌️😂 Much obliged for the great walkthrough. For now, it's back to the Google I go to read articles and watch videos that seem outmoded 1 year after their publication. 😂 I'm happy to find you all living in the same decade as me! (I can't tell you how much time I spent reading stuff from 2017 through 2019 only to discover that all of the information about the codecs had since been updated and changed and now supported different features.) Perhaps other Independent artists have experienced something similar. 🤷 You rock, again I really appreciate the video explanation above and look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Hunter. Far too specific for youtube comments, sorry. Get broadcast delivery specs and adhere to them. Don't be bullied by producers - I dont know what PowerDirector is. If you want a one-one consultation to discuss further then please contact me via social.

Hello, I love your videos and I am learning a lot from your content, I have a question, the Wide Gamut color space is only for RAW videos or does it apply to videos from a Sony S3?

I like your videos a lot, they are profound, clear and didactically really well made. Thanks a lot! Now a question. You are right: when I switch to the wide gamut, my log-shots don't look flat anymore (not lut applied). But there are some shots coming from an F55 that are sLog3, exactly like the others, and still look flat (exactly same values they have when not color managed). - Any idea what this could mean????

@@DarrenMostyn I shoot in HLG however I only have a SDR monitor and publish to KZbin which is SDR. Is it least problematical if I don't use the HDR tool for my projects?

Thanks for another very informative video. As a slight aside, is there any need/benefit to using a CST to convert to and from DWG as first and last nodes in my tree if I'm already using a colour managed DWG colourspace in my project settings ? Thanks.
