This was so helpful to just knock out a color treatment in about 3 minutes. I stopped at the color grade because for my log footage, I just needed to work with exposure and skin tones. Excellent tutorial.

[@ParamariboCloser]

I think i am in the wrong class.... this is “master class”.... way too fast for me. 😂 But I appreciate your work man. 👊🏼

[@neldino1251]

maybe because other tutorials like this are over 10 minutes and he's tryna do it under 5?

[@ParamariboCloser]

@@neldino1251 yes, could be. I hope i catch up soon on some Davinci techniques.

I’m such a beginner I don’t even know how to go to the screen for your first step 😹

[@sidneybakergreen]

Color tab lol

[@3lle_0h_3lle]

Sidney Baker-Green lol! Thank you, maybe one day I’ll actually know what I’m doing 😜

[@sidneybakergreen]

@@3lle_0h_3lle it's been a couple weeks! Any progress?

[@3lle_0h_3lle]

Sidney Baker-Green nah not much, I played with this feature a little bit but I’ve been busy with a lot of other things haven’t had much time to sit down and mess with video editing :/

[@MikaTarkela]

Me too. I can't see any color tab wtf

[@antonioglow4457]

I haven’t seen much representation for guys like me when it comes to professional video editing until now. Thank you so much! Stay fabulous 🥰

Smashed that like button so quick after the video ended. Great quick tutorial, its awesome when you explain why do you what you do with each step. Keep it up!

[@ZaharizKhuzaimah]

thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. hope to see more tutorials from you!

[@LisaWamaitha]

this tutorial has really helped me, omd i was struggling to figure out how i could do it.. but it’s a really well explained video.. luv fam!

[@chipcolleran6660]

Brilliant! I love how efficient and time managed this tutorial is.

[@g1technicalservices736]

Best DaVinci coloring tutorial I've ever watched. Will watch a few more times and try the steps. Awesome job!

[@focusedenergyproductions9885]

Well done Sidney, short and sweet and easy to follow. Keep up the great work!

I’m delivered delivered delivered ! This was an awesome upload 🔥

[@MinesGaming45]

Amazing job and perfect length video without taking 5 minutes to explain 1 thing. If I need more detail then I go looking for it. That is one thing I've found frustrating about researching color grading is that every video is 20+ minutes long. lol I just want the simple straight to the point and you delivered. Thank you! Earned a new sub for sure.

[@erickbueza]

Goodness me, just like that. Amazing bro. I'm subscribed. I also like the way you explain the Nodes.

[@LearnHowGroup]

Thanks brother! I'm just getting started with DaVinci and I liked your explanation.

[@sidneybakergreen]

Thank you so much for the love!

[@bmkq2007]

Can't agree more with the cimments below me. Great useful tutorial Sidney. Love it. Thank you so much bro

[@CaseyCazeaux]

Love it, man. I just subscribed. I just recently switched over to DaVinci Resolve from Premiere and this was exactly the video I was looking for. Thanks!

[@sidneybakergreen]

No problem man

[@mactus]

Great tutorial! A suggestion for the future: Record tutorials with a smaller program window. It is difficult to read the text on the buttons and interface on a 1080p monitor.

[@heratlas]

thank you!

[@stuff_i_liked1815]

Great Tutorial. Right to the point. You got a new sub buddy. Keep em coming

[@rlkz_hez19]

You explained something my so called teacher tried to "teach" us in 4 3-hour classes, thanks so much,man

[@sidneybakergreen]

Glad I could help! Email me if you need help in class

[@creativework2506]

Thank you for this great tutorial!!

[@alekseibarulin3511]

Subscribed, very nice beautiful tutorial. Thank you!

[@MrInsider33]

"we drag this to this point, connect this point to this one.." ok and why are we doing this? lol

[@sidneybakergreen]

I explained what each node does in the setup and even why you connect them that way right after. Text appears over each node saying what it does and what it's for.

[@davidshuttmedia373]

@@sidneybakergreen I think it's because we don't know why you connect the blue triangles? The tutorials great and it's not a need to know but it would be an interesting thing to find out so we could experiment :) (The tutorial is sick though my new video looks miles better after doing it in resolve instead of premiere so thankyou

[@BaronDeRothschild]

If you expect pin point details in a 7 minute tutorial you are crazy. This is more than enough for an introduction to a more complex process. Even if you have question at least ask in a more respectful way. The guy took time out of his day to make a quick tutorial. A little more respect would be nice.

[@sidneybakergreen]

@@BaronDeRothschild this comment made my day my friend 😌

[@Mandelasmind]

@@BaronDeRothschild dont think he was trying to be disrespectful, he was just pointing out something that didnt make sense to him

Hi there, That was awesome. I am not familiar with Resolve at all. I'm a Premiere Pro user and I would like to use Davinci Resolve for color grading. I need to learn about it from scratch. what do you recommend?

[@sidneybakergreen]

This tutorial is really the foundation of color tools in resolve! I recommend downloading it and playing around and really YouTubing any questions you have!

[@hanabaric5509]

hey ! you can also download free resolve books from their page, www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve/training it's super easy and you learn everything about the program :)

[@oxygen454]

Being new I have a lot to learn. I'm doing Lego stop motion and the lighting mixed with shadows and the yellow faces makes things interesting!

Brother thank you very much this was really helpful. One thing that can make these videos easier is click effect so we can keep track of where your mouse clicks. Sometimes it gets super hard to see where the mouse icon is. All the best 🙏🏻❤

Thank you my friend!

[@golshfid]

Great video! Quick question though: On the curves section I noticed you have extra details with what looks like waveforms of the shadows and YRGB. My curves section is nothing but the YRGB lines. What would I do to get those to appear so I have a better visual on what to look for? Is this a limitation I'm facing from using the free version, or is there a simple checkbox I'm just not able to find? or perhaps its a 16 feature as I'm only using 15 currently.
