My Simple Color Grading Workflow for YouTube

In this video we're talking about my simple color grading workflow for KZbin. I'll show you how I use DaVinci Resolve to take my image from flat, to a nice moody look in just a few quick steps.

this is exactly how tutorials should be made! Quick, straight to the point and with enough details! Great content

[@uppsatskanalen4456]

Great tutorial. Your channel will explode. 👍🏻

[@georgekamenov_]

Thanks, appreciate it 🙂

[@bartmvfx]

Nice! I'm suprised how crispy image you got from a6400! Well done!

[@georgekamenov_]

Yeah, I feel like it's a camera that most people who use it don't even push to 50% of what it can actually do (myself included) 😅

[@shahriartanvir977]

Hey George, what lens are you using for these videos?

[@georgekamenov_]

For most of my KZbin talking head videos I use the Tamron 17-70 f2.8 for E-Mount at 24mm. It is an APSC lens though, so for full frame you're looking at something along the lines of a 24-70.

[@Krish-10]

Do u think its fine to color grade rec 709 videos?

[@georgekamenov_]

Well, yeah. As long as you don't push the grade way too much because it can end up falling apart quickly since you don't have as much information to work with.

[@Krish-10]

@@georgekamenov_ Thank you!! I was wondering about it's overall impact in the final output. I shoot with mobile cameras only and so I was doubtful if grading them would be "meaningless". Anyways, I love color grading

[@timothyisaiah2601]

First comment!!!! Please tell me what’s your favorite focal length!

[@georgekamenov_]

Honestly, I've been using a lot of 24 on APSC which is around a 35 on full frame. Either that or my 30mm f1.4 which is equivalent to about a 45mm on full frame 😁

Sorry tos ay that the log looks better than the grade in the thumbnail. The video is artifacting quite bad too.

[@georgekamenov_]

The log might look better on a small thumbnail I guess, but I don't see any artifacting on my end 😅

@@georgekamenov_ If you are grading for yourself, then that's good enough
