EASY ProMist Filter Effect // DaVinci Resolve 17

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hey guys! This is pretty much how you create a Promist Filter Effect in Resolve for free! This is such a cool effect that I am using in so many of my videos! Hope you like it! :)

[@serdarismail7219]

Junge Junge was dieses Programm Alles kann . Wobei wir nur ein Bruchteil wissen aber dank DIR habe ich/wir mehr wissen und lernen einfach weiter. Velen Dank Großer

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hey! Ja, ich bin auch wieder und wieder aufs neue überrascht und ich entdecke selbst täglich immer wieder neue features! :D Danke dir für die netten Worte! :)

[@DrRONYmusic]

That's exactlt what i was after! thanks a lot!!!

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Thank you!!! :)

[@JoseWela]

man, this is exactly what I was looking for, because the promist filter on the lens doesn't really give you this much control. Thanks!!

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Yeah I can relate to that - however you can have a TON of control with an actual promist filter in front of your lens and even though this is off-topic for my channel, a video to exactly that is already lined up and ready to go live in the next couple weeks 😁

[@JoseWela]

@@SebastianFriedrichVisuals looking forward to watch it

[@davidmultimedia2024]

Also causes ugly particle artifacts in the bokeh balls, just like all diffusion filters.

[@voltvisuals]

First person to do it well 👌

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Thank you man! Glad you liked it!:)

[@EspenJohan]

Another great tutorial Sebastian.

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hey Espen! Thank you so much man! :)

[@saunameisterttv3306]

Amazing as always Sebastian, you're crushing it! Thanks for sharing

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Thank you so much man! :) You're more than welcome! :)

[@z1con.gaming314]

Thanks man, this was really great and fairly simple! Also like that you gave us 2 options!

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

You're more than welcome, glad it was somewhat useful to you! :)

[@usmvnjaved]

Extremely simple and to the point. Don't need to watch another video

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Ah man that means a lot! Thank you so much!!

[@oliveribasta5929]

Broooooo! Killer video🔥

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Thanks Oliver! :) Super glad to hear that man!!! :)

[@JaredSmithTheIntern]

Great stuff, man! Thank you!

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Thank you 🙏🏽

[@heafyxiu]

tried other techniques, but this one is the best. Thanks.

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Glad to hear you've got some good results! Appreciate it!

[@tonyscalifornia]

I just caught up with your video this morning and omg it helped a ton on my workflow as I'm newbie. I'm about to by 82mm pro-mist but I can spend that on nd filter now. Thank you a lottt

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Appreciate that Tony! So glad it helped you - if you want an even easier workflow, I built a plugin for Resolve that gets you the ProMist look with just an effect on an adjustment clip - check out my latest video or www.sf-visuals.com/shop 👌🏽 promise you it’s worth checking out 🙌🏽

[@katerina_foto_video]

Thank you😘

You are most welcome, Katerina!:)

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Very happy to hear that! Thank you so much!!🙌🏽

[@ianharper6015]

Very helpful. Thank you.

[@meditating-daily3076]

Holy, how have I never heard of that effect, didn't even know there is a filter that could do this. Thank you man!

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Yeah but as mentioned, those filter can be very pricy :D Rather try out this version and see how it works for you! :)

[@thegreyfilmsofficial]

i cannot thank you enough!!! This has saved my money and also helped me alot in my videos !!🥺🥺❤❤

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Ayyyyeee! Stoked to hear that! Appreciate you letting me know!

[@TriniWeekes]

Wow I was not even aware of this filter, thanks Sebastian

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hey man! Yeah, I was so often about to buy one of these but 200+ is a bit too much in my opinion and this workaround is just great with the results you gonna get! :)

[@DrRONYmusic]

Hey Thats' awesome! thank you so much. super clear. However DAVINCI doesn't let me adjust any of the settings for the FX. DO I need the paid version to do that? or should it work with the free version? thanks for your help!

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Thanks man! If you se a big watermark from Resolve in the preview window you have to have the studio version, otherwise it should work in the free version. If you still have trouble I recommend using one of the other options mentioned! :)

[@GaryCunninghamyouareenough]

at 4:41 the composite type is set to add and can't be changed. Is this feature not available on the free version of resolve?

[@GLOWMgmtGroup]

Thank you very much

[@J_HNP]

You can also use “soft light” in the composite section. This is my personal preference when creating a film-like highlight look.

[@benjaminfilinson6788]

Thank you

[@what2125]

would there be any difference on the footage between the post-edited mist filter effect and the real mist filter? Are there any advantages that I can get using expensive 100~200 dollar mist filter?

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

In my opinion I‘d always try to get the shot with an actual filter attached to your lens. You can even get an ND mist filter so you have 2 filters in one!:)

[@therunandgunshooter3129]

niiice thank you

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

You're more than welcome!

[@RealMistarin]

how to make the fog darker?

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

You can do that on the fast noise node directly by pulling the gain down or Ann a color corrector node to the fast noise node!:)

[@RealMistarin]

@@SebastianFriedrichVisuals Thanks! :D

[@storiesbyad]

Great content ....

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hey Amit! Thank you very much, I am glad that you like it! :)

[@tompotter8748]

It looks so good!! Do you think there’s much advantage to the real thing, whether that’s pro buy or diy, vs. doing it this way? I’m certainly very attracted to how much control you have this way to dial it in, so if it’s not much worse, it would be easy to totally let go of tryin’a finesse this stuff in pre. I could see how the edge of the frame doesn’t have quite as much information, since highlights just off screen wouldn’t contribute any glow like they would on the real thing. But I’m using a slight crop for stabilization and fake motion blur anyway, so that’s fine. Is the quality of the effect itself any worse…?

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hey Tom! Thank you so much for the comment! To be honest, I use all 3 methods, this one, a standard pro mist filter and a diy mist filter (just use a very cheap UV filter, spray some hairspray into the air and catch it slightly with the filter and let it dry for a sec) I’d say the advantage is, especially for client projects, that if you do it this way, the effect isn’t baked into your footage, so if the client doesn’t like it, you can just delete it - and that’s not possible with the standard pro mist filter! Yeah, the edges don’t get that much from the effect, so if you’re slightly cropping in for stabilization you should be fine, just apply the effect before you do the stabilizing and cropping because if you do it afterwards, you might face the same issue!:)

broo , make tutorial for text behind object ..😊

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

I wrote that down, will do that man! 🙏🏼

[@searchmedude]

Great idea Sebastian, I will give this a go rather than buy a pro mist filter.

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hey Michael! That's a great idea! I am also about to create a second channel with "filmmaking tips" on a budget - and one video will be about a DIY pro mist filter (its a regular UV filter from amazon for $10 and a can of hairspray that you need for it - then you make 1 spray into the air and slightly catch it with the UV filter) This will get really great results and even more comparable to a real mist filter - for $10 only! :D If you're interested in that, stay tuned, will make an announcement when the channel's about to launch! :D Thanks for taking the time to comment, greatly appreciated! :)
