If there's one thing I hate as a DP it's when a newbie colorist re-white balances my footage in post. I balanced it on set the way I wanted to see it in the footage. I can't tell you how many times a colorist has shown their first pass to me and the director and we're like, WTF HAPPENED TO ALL THE CHARACTER WE SAW IN THE DAILIES?! Except I know damn well wtf happened. They RE-whitebalanced everything. Point: colorists should work with the DP, or AT LEAST see a lookbook, before they waste a bunch of time white balancing everything.

NOTE: Please discuss any changes with director & DP before white balancing. My DP always tries to get close to the final look in camera, so if the white balance is "off" it was for a reason.

@ehfilmandvideo
@ehfilmandvideo 2 жыл бұрын
You can bring a gray card when shooting, or use false color on a monitor, but your best bet in post, depending what information you have access to would be qualifying or masking something specific in your image like skin tone to see if its sitting correctly in your waveform and correct according to that

basically, any way you change color balance will be different it its own way.

Normally you should use the eye picker next to it and have a middle grey card on the day of the shoot and click on it but with these fast pace shoot these days, you may find yourself with no time having to hold a grey card etc...but with the print aka offset wheel, you can have an easier representation of the scene over than using waveforms.

Can definitely work. But RGB mixer might be an a complicated approach. ESP since a lot of colorists use it to enter Color matrix values. Even then the main goal is trying not to touch the achromatic axis of Color cube. So what you’re trying to achieve is the opposite of it. Which might a bit tricky, but doable I would say.

Another Tip: If you have something in your shot, that should be white, isolate it on the first note via a mask. The change your scope to parade and use the color channels in the offset control knob seperately to bring each channel at the same level. Just do that with the offset. That should bring the white more closely to a neutral white.

Set the white balance manually in camera then you do not have to spend any time in post white balancing. For calibration you can use a white slate, color chart, and / or a calibrated color temperature meter. The more precisely you shoot the less time you have to spend grading and editing.

Setting the white balance correctly in your camare is only needed if you don't shoot in raw. For example if you only use jpg for photos. But if you use raw, the camera saves the information how it captures them without interpreting them. Hence the file format name: "raw". But because the camera doen't bother with interpreting the colors you have to do it in post. But since I have to convert those files later anyway, I find it easier to set the white balance in a program that is made to do that, like Lightroom for example in my case. That way I can focus more on the other things on set.
@fightofdestiny
@fightofdestiny 2 жыл бұрын

Best way to fix white balance would be to linearize, convert to cone space and then set the white balance and convert back. Sadly that requires knowledge of the gamma/color space the footage was shot in and cameras apply all their own little profiles to make the image look different. Also I doubt this method is even possible in Resolve which always just does magic stuff under the hood with zero explanation.

People moved on to Dv because it became an industry standard for color grading. No post prod company color grades in PP unless they are one movie indie filmmaker amateurs. Color grading in PP is for amateurs, hobbyists and others who only do light grading for game clips, wedding videos etc. Pro feature film/TV grading work is Davinci and it's amazing. You cannot imagine the things you can achieve by grading in DV. Your footage will look a million bucks. Comparing PP to DV is like Windows paint vs Photoshop, there's that much difference in terms of color grading capabilities. It's even a chore to grade in PP because most likely you'll waste so much time with bugs. glitches and crashes anyway. It's a shitty ass overpriced junk.
