Master Color Grading on iPad with DaVinci Resolve

These tutorials are gold

Thank you so much. I try my best to keep it simple

@KeithCherilus561 I'm a beginner and honestly there's information overload. I love how you lay it out. I'm not into all these theories just hands on so I can try myself. Please keep up with this style man. I'm excited for what you have in store.

@@claudiomarionyc with many new things it takes time to pick up on the information. I’m very excited do you love the content. I think Davinci resolve is great for beginners, so stay tune for much more!!!

Thanks for the video. I’m still on one node. But I’ll get there eventually. I’m on iPad Air 5

[@KeithCherilus561]

Do you do all your edits in one node? Or are you saying nodes are a little confusing

Hi Keith thank you for tutorial. I have a question why EUHD C-LOT is not available in my LUTs?

[@KeithCherilus561]

Hey 👋🏿, no particular reason besides the fact that each put has a particular look and purpose. For this specific scene I assumed this lut was appropriate for this scene. I also wanted to show how to import luts into Davinci Resolve for iPads

Wow, you explained it well. Thank you for the knowledge🤟🏾 Stay blessed

It was not shown how Color Management was set, but it is strange when Input color space in IDT you chose DV WG Intermediate and not Canon C-log. Without showing Color Management, it makes no sense to me. I can understand 709 output color space before Lut. Copying data from another source also does not reflect natural workflow nad can be not clerly for beginners

[@KeithCherilus561]

Hey I apologize for any confusion. This was to show how Resolve for iPad holds up compared to the studio desktop version. I couldn’t find the color management tab you typically see on the computer but CST is the same solution. I have a much simpler video where I use the application for the first time that uses C Log that you may want to check out, . Also DV WG could be used to replace log , it really depends on which direction you want to take the footage.

[@Elslawoy]

@@KeithCherilus561 in IDT we take camera colour space and convert to timeline colour space eventually straight to display colour space. Here its look like you converted timeline colour space to display colour space. Why I feel is missing conversion from camera colour space to display colour space. Because you use Lut which work for rec 709 its ok to convert for Display but why from DV WG? I think only about beginners who can replicate this. I just bought an iPad and I was basically looking for how to apply dehancer or look designer or another emulator in this DaVinci Resolve for iPad

[@KeithCherilus561]

I actually got a video that specifically uses Dehancer, which I believe is a standalone app, take a look at it and tell me what you think? kzbin.info/www/bejne/ql69hmlvqZVmmassi=w_N4sFvo2m58Hi-p @@Elslawoy

[@BonafideLex]

Are you able to create outside nodes on the ipad, without a keyboard. I know you can use a shortcut but i was wondering if there is a native way. When i do it i only see add serial, add parallel, and add layer

[@KeithCherilus561]

Using the iPad I don’t there is which unfortunate.

[@gurralaajay3636]

Hi the video is so helpful! I just bought Ipad Pro M4 13 inch and learning DaVince Resolve free version I was just confirming that the LUT folder is not for free ? I am from India so I cannot buy in dollars ,please confirm

[@KeithCherilus561]

Thank you for the positive feedback. I’m so glad you enjoyed this video!!! As for this particular LUT, I do not believe it’s free, but to be honest there’s other great free ones out there. Also this LUT is only suitable for Canon cameras, I’m not sure if that’s what you own?

[@rav_666_]

You did such a great job narrating and with pacing! Keep going! :) also, I have an a6600. How do I know what to set the CST as? Is there a chart I can look at? Im a super noob at all of this lol

[@KeithCherilus561]

I once had the a6000, I love that camera but I don’t recall it having any log features or a color profile so tbh I’d skip the color space transformation or manually do the saturation and contrast

[@KeithCherilus561]

Also thank you for the positive feedback, I’ll definitely have more to come for certain!!

[@rav_666_]

Oh that is good to know thank you! Seems like the color space really transforms the video by a lot though so that seems like a bummer to not have. I guess I just need to play with my camera more and learn all the jargon 😅

[@KeithCherilus561]

@@rav_666_ yeah it does change the video by a lot, but mind you the videos are really greyed out and aren’t ready for broadcasting that’s why. The a600 kind of already did all the work, the only thing you’re really missing is the ability to manipulate the video as much as you would if it were log. But trust me pay attention more to telling a good story if narrative is what you’re after, proper exposure and light, and great audio and everything will fall into place.

[@thegenius2OOx]

Great vid, I am having an issue on my iPad Pro 12.9 M1 , when using quick export or the modified export tab using a shortcut command. My exports are a slightly washed out and do not match timeline color. Is this something you have come across. I am on beta IPad OS 17

[@KeithCherilus561]

I haven’t really come across that issue but I did hear somewhere across the grapevine that using Rec709A as the timeline color is ideal for Apple monitors.

[@thegenius2OOx]

@@KeithCherilus561 appreciate the reply, and yea still can't get it to match, it is a slighttt difference in shadow detail where export shows more in shadows than what is being shown in timeline. I do not have the issue if I use luma fusion as its more 1 to 1

@@KeithCherilus561 the screen is not XDR, do you think it is good enough for color grading? i don't want to buy 12.9 because its too big for me. Hope i can receive your experience.

[@KeithCherilus561]

@@JantriPinemare you looking to professionally grade footage? The key component you should look for is, is the monitor you’re grading on color calibrated so you know you’re looking at accurate colors when you export and what is your color space transform settings. Not everyone has XDR capabilities yet so I wouldn’t push to serious on the matter of whether or not what your grading on is XDR.

[@deviate.2651]

How do you colour correct R3D redcode raw footage in DaVinci? I would like to edit the raw files rather than convert them to Rec 709

[@KeithCherilus561]

You can manually adjust your footage using the "Camera Raw" page in the Color Tab. Make sure it's an actual RAW file and not a compressed video format or it will be grayed out. If you're having a hard time locating it, it should be the very first page with the picture of a camera in front of it

[@deviate.2651]

@@KeithCherilus561 thank you. I meant to ask how to do this using the ipad pro. Can I work with the raw files on the ipad or is that only limited to desktop? IF so can I start the project in raw on the desktop and continue on the ipad?

[@KeithCherilus561]

@@deviate.2651 oh lol sorry. Short answer is no Resolve for iPad hasn’t rolled out that feature yet. Hopefully in the near future it will. You can start on the desktop and export it as a uncompressed ProRes and then edit on the iPad

It can edit log. It’s raw I’m not sure about. Would have to double check on that though not too sure

[@jstories8600]

How change proxy to raw videos

[@KeithCherilus561]

A short answer to that is you can’t create proxies on the iPad, you’ll need to create them on your desktop. Too many steps in my opinion to have an efficient workflow. But if your just color grading and not necessarily editing I wouldn’t suggest anything less that the original footage.

[@itsshowtime2297]

What is lut

[@KeithCherilus561]

A LUT is short for “look up table” it’s basically a preset for your grade to keep it very simple.

[@actualityfilms]

Although you've learned some things from Cullen Kelly, your serial chain style seems a little whack. Most KZbin colorists do it this way I know. But if you watch the real pros like Cullen then tend to use three or four primaries and then parallel nodes or 9-13 parallel nodes altogether. Your ends results are fine though.

I totally agree with you. As we continue to improve we start to clean up our act a little bit.
