Good FILM GRAIN for Youtube - How to avoid the denoiser and the compression

If you have found this video useful, I'll really appreciate a like to the video and subscribe in the channel to support my work. Ciao!

[@FrancescoMucciFilmmaker]

Very very very useful and I should add that it's something that goes even beyond the youtube upload. For instance it is a way to keep the quality consistent regardless of the monitor of your client and the media player they're using. I've tried every other one and at the end I've opted for the same Film Grain effect in Davinci as you do. Keep up the good stuff!

[@LucaBono.Studio]

Thanks Francesco! I'm glad you've found the video useful ✌🏻 ciao!

Super helpful, highly logical, straight to the point, and no nonsense. I'm indebted to you. Thank you. Cheers.

[@LucaBono.Studio]

Glad it was helpful!

Again another helpful video, Thank you

[@LucaBono.Studio]

Thank you Shaan!

Film grain make the footage less sharp after upload on KZbin because compression. It helps with banding maybe but video is definitely less sharp with film grain on KZbin

[@LucaBono.Studio]

As long as you dodge the compression and denoiser, your video will be fine..but yeah, Vimeo handles the film grain a bit better than youtube. Cheers!

[@jakestoneshow]

Subscribed. You are awesome and thank you for this ! Where in Europe are you from?

[@LucaBono.Studio]

Thanks mate! I'm based in the Netherlands, but I'm from Italy ✌🏻

[@jakestoneshow]

@@LucaBono.Studio Awesome! I was adopted from Romanian live in the states but travel back and forth a lot.

[@LucaBono.Studio]

If you are visiting Amsterdam, send me a message! We can grab a nice beer ✌ Cheers mate!

[@jakestoneshow]

@@LucaBono.Studio I will absolutely take you up on this! It may be a year or two but I am planning on relocating to RO. - we will keep in touch!

[@jimveybe7689]

I much prefer Dehancer grain to the native grain in Resolve Studio. The "how" to deal with hardware-intensive computations is not part of my creative process (it doesn't matter).

You're welcome!

Thanks 🙏

[@ronshinall]

Luca what are your thoughts on using a static image film grain overlay vs. plug-in vs. video overlay?

[@LucaBono.Studio]

I'm fine with the overlay...the quality is good and it's faster to render! Thanks for watching!

[@edouhoekie]

Just make sure it isn't static tho

[@cedricrandria5882]

great video

[@LucaBono.Studio]

Thanks ✌🏻

If you share this video to your uncle, he will make better videos of flowers and cats!

[@rodrinies]

Isn't h265 better? Which codec does KZbin prefer so as not to lose quality in 4K? This video was exported in which codec? I love it's quality 🤣

[@LucaBono.Studio]

It's all explained at the end of the video. Cheers!

[@biglazybeastproductions]

Great video mate. I've recently uploaded a music video with a real 35mm film grain overlay. I unlisted it because the compression was so bad that the footage became mushy. Will desaturation work with this and can I do something similar on Premiere Pro?

[@LucaBono.Studio]

Yo! You should use a fine grain without chroma noise (without saturation). I think you can create a film grain in After Effects, there should be a fast noise function. If you can't find a solution, I've a link in the description to download a film grain preset I've made. Good luck!

[@biglazybeastproductions]

@@LucaBono.Studio Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I'll give the link a look as soon as I can. It's great to see people sharing their techniques and helping others. All the best.

[@biglazybeastproductions]

PS I noticed you're a Lumix user. I love my S5 so much, it's so easy to create beautiful images when paird up with the right lenses! Especially vintage glass! What model do you own?

[@LucaBono.Studio]

Thanks mate! I use the Lumix S1 and S5 ✌🏻

[@cgnhub]

Will this improve the quality of the video after uploading?

[@Foomba]

The free version has an effect called "fast noise". Is this similar to adding "film grain"?

[@LucaBono.Studio]

Hi, yes it's the same. Cheers!

[@Foomba]

@@LucaBono.Studio Thank you!

[@flouride]

How to make your own film grain in the free version of Davinci: >Toolbox >Generators >Noise Gradient >Inspector >Scale: 330 >Seethe Rate: 1.0 >Blending mode: Overlay >Opacity: whatever you feel.

[@ROMTHIRTY]

For KZbin, unless you're uploading a 4K video, grain gets washed out.

[@LucaBono.Studio]

Yes, it's true! I've shared the export settings I use at the end of the video ;)

[@oofig]

KZbin's VP9 seems to be better at grain than KZbin's AV1

[@ROMTHIRTY]

@@oofig yeah this is true.

[@into.the.wood.chipper.]

​@@oofig At what bitrate?

[@oofig]

@@into.the.wood.chipper. KZbin doesn't use a bit right they use a constant quality

[@vanraz]

Ciao Luca!

[@LucaBono.Studio]

Ciao Toby! Thanks for watching my friend!

Way too fast.
