Thank you so so so much! Add node->LUT->drop the key output gain->histogram curves, (little bit greenish, Megan style)->add node->film grain! And big big congratulations, Megan!🎉👏🎊

[@megantanart]

Hahaaa thank you !!!! 🥹🥹🥹💕💕💕

[@rishimukherjee8101]

I am a professional photographer itself, so I would not lie, but this kind of color tone is not what's preferable to me, but I surely would love to appreciate how easy you made it look and how easy it was to understand the colour grading process. Thank you for the video; the video actually stood up to its title a solid 100%. I loved it.

[@kevstheworld]

a bit of a personal touch I like to add is some glow effect for when I want it to look more ''dreamlike''. Overall great tutorial, I loved it, love your videos and your work!

[@megantanart]

Yeah same !! I did a tutorial about the glow effect actually HAHAHA

[@kevstheworld]

​@@megantanart​ omg I'll watch that one too then >_< , you're such an inspiration to me!

[@wearetrackclub]

Congrats on 100k, Megan!!! So well deserved 👏We love working with you too, it's been amazing to be a part of your journey and see what you've achieved with your talent ❤

[@megantanart]

Thank you so much 🥺 u guys were a big part of my journey

[@orki]

You have to add the LUT after the CST Node. Before adding make no sense, since you add a node to make CST to have a flat profile before you add a LUT. After that, you have to create a compound node together with your CST Node and the LUT Node after the CST Node. Then you can reduce the gain. Try it out.

[@megantanart]

Thanks so so much for the tip!!!

[@ianfian7321]

I always love seeing your videos and enjoy the work you put into your color grading! One thing though is that the film look luts were made to be used with an actual film scan so the output gamma should be set to the Cineon film log instead of lowering the gamma’s intensity to adjust the lut's harshness. Also, congrats on 100,000!

[@megantanart]

Ohhhh my god whattt imma try that thank u so much !!

[@kenjinholambertinho]

CONGRATS MEGAANNNNNNN 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉✨✨✨✨✨✨

THANKS KENJI!!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@nerucheung]

Congrats to 100k Megan, crazy how fast you've grown A tip for anyone using the build in FILM LUTS, make sure to set your Output gamma to Cineon Film log, so it's probably applied :)

[@megantanart]

Thank you so so much !!!

[@orki]

Yes, but the LUT Node has to be placed after the CST Node, not before. Both have to be transformed to a compound Node and the gain has to be adjusted afterwards. You all do it wrong.

[@MYSTIC5925]

Nah this is such an amazing video. The shots you graded are almost exact examples of the type of stuff I want to film. Thank yooouuu

[@megantanart]

AHHH THANK YOUUUU !!!!

Hi Megan, love your videos! I just subscribed to your channel, looking forward to your future videos! Somebody probably mentioned this already, but you can quickly create a new serial node by pressing Alt + S which will automatically be connected to your selected node. This will save you the trouble of clicking and dragging :)

Hi! I'm russian, and i bad know english, But I noticed that you are losing the right skin color, check it in the vectorscope and don't forget enable this in the settings of vectorscope, as well as a hint to remove the colors in highlights and shadows, use sat. vs sat. curve, do it before color grading Congrats for 100k Good luck!

is their any option where u can copy all the grading and put it to another clip or do we have to edit each clip separately?? thanks

[@megantanart]

Yes !!!! There is !! Copy and then to paste on your next clip option V( either option V or command V I can’t remember it just comes to me 😩 ) then y can choose - color grading

[@tombeachue6355]

From my knowledge the inbuilt luts work great if u first convert the footage to cineon film log and convert it. Though i could be wrong 🤔

[@megantanart]

Oh really !! Thanks so much for letting me know I’ll do some research on this

[@Drewdoode]

This is correct! All the film looks in Davinci should be converted to cineon film log color space using color space transform in a node before the lut. This was a game changer for me!

[@Drewdoode]

Nice video. Thanks for sharing!

[@VirtualFairyy]

Hi Megan!! You're videos are so so helpful thank you so much!! I have a question around editing in resolve. Do you always do your edit before you colour grade? Also how do you make sure your computer doesn't lag while trying to colour grade I find mine always lags so much. would love to see an editing process video in the future

[@megantanart]

Hi ! Thank you so much ! Yes i normally edit before color grading but that is just my preference and what I find best for my work flow. Regarding the lagging on davinci, yes it does happen soemitmes but here are a few tips and tricks that could help speed this up. First open davinci and your project, then go to your menu bar on top, and click 'Playback' then click 'Proxy handling' and then 'prefer proxies'. This will allow davinci to prefer teh proxy versions of your clips instead of the original to speed up the processing. And then another thing you can do is, go to 'Playback' again - Render Cache - User. This will render your project while yo're working and there should be a red line on your timeline that will turn blue slowly once it has been rendered. (red-not rendered and blue-rendered) So you know when everything is blue that you can playback without problem. Last but not least, what you can also do is reduce the quality of your video playback. YOu do this by going to 'playback' again - Timeline Proxy Resolution - half or quarter. Hope this helps !
