This GENIUS DCTL and LUT combo will change how you color grade.

[@StefanRingelschwandtner]

Great video. This is exactly why I built these tools: to provide a quicker, more intuitive way to adjust saturation, exposure, or skin tones directly in the image itself, instead of looking at abstract tools like the vectorscope or waveform. As you noted, it helps develop a better feel for different scenes over time.

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@StefanRingelschwandtner Love all you do. Thanks for making tools for all of us out there. Truly changes what I do.

[@blackwhitepictures4291]

You're amazing !

[@nicholasbrecken7357]

Your tools are amazing, Stefan!

[@PanamaCultura]

Thanks!

[@wearetrackclub]

Thank you for sharing how to use these tools, Janik! This shots is captivating! 👏👏😍😍

[@JT_Film]

Whoa, these are POWERFUL. Definitely going to delve deeper into this workflow.

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@JT_Film yeah it is a great tools to use on your timeline level. Check sat,skin,exposure in lightbox on resolve and see if your levels are consistent across all images. Let me know how this workflow works out for you!

[@braxtonwoullard1188]

Great info man💪🏽💯.

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@braxtonwoullard1188 thank you!

[@TheDarkschizo]

YOU . ARE . AMAZING! Your vibe is just a treasure.

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@TheDarkschizo haha that is great thank you! What is my vibe? Curious

[@JaydeeAlberto]

Holy shit dude this is amazing. Thanks for sharing! I'm definitely using these on my next project.

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@JaydeeAlberto thank you! yeah this kind of blew my mind after looking at waveforms,parades, and vectorscopes. These are just scopes mapped on your images directly. Genius!

[@Despolitizado]

Dude, you're a genius, what a beautiful color gradation.. I really want you to be my teacher s2 you really understand this stuff

[@jp.audiovisual]

Nah, this deserves more views, i get its kinda nich content for us filmmakers but this is spot on

[@OKLAHOMALOVE2]

I love this guy's videos. It's always good knowledge.

[@kapoutdrakonis7481]

You are my favorite colorist.

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@kapoutdrakonis7481 I did not know I needed to hear that ❤️ thank you so much. I just really hope you get something out of any of my videos. I’ll try to keep it going to stay in that #1 spot 😊

[@Microck]

thank you so much for this video! youre one of the realest colorists in this whole platforms. are you planning to do a video on your updated workflow/ node tree? I would love to see an indepth explanation of each one

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@Microck thank you. I will have something coming out in the next couple days going over my node tree!

[@fellawhofilms7760]

10:39 bro fumbled lol after trying to motivate... lol

[@JanikBrosFilms]

Haha. It’s hard for me to say that typical stuff at the end. I think almost forgot to say it and I was like “sub-sus subscribe please!” Gotta get me that “I’m just pu pu pu pu poor color grading stuttering boy” subscriber.

[@ericsandler8930]

Wow, this was really sick. These utilities look way more intuitive for matching scenes!

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@ericsandler8930 thanks! i mean to be honest these utilities are genius in my opinion. Stefan the person who makes these from mononodes site is always innovating and being creative in this way that makes color grading more fun and satisfying as you know what your end result will be. Also they give free updates on all dctls in the future!

[@learnwithabe]

great work! It would be great if can you make a vido showing how you got your stills and how you prepare them for color matching your log footage? I see the still to the right but then you press something and your able to compare apples to apples, thanks!

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@learnwithabe yeah I can add that to my next video. I skim through stuff sometimes to get to my point but I can definitely get into it. Try to make my next vid over my node tree, color management, and basic quick things that help my grading flow better.

[@outdoorsinontario3037]

Fun stuff! Like the inner excitement u were holding back. Gr8 stuff!

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@outdoorsinontario3037 I have all the inner excitement for sure.lol. Trying to let it out more

[@Fessoid]

Nice technique, gratefull!

[@VladislavNovickij]

Great video ✊ Thanks for reviewing my skin tone idicator LUT 🙌 Much appreciate Your support ❤️

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@VladislavNovickij yeah of course! It is a great tool for a different point of view for scopes. Sorry for totally forgetting your name/website in the video.lol. Although I obviously linked it in description.

[@VladislavNovickij]

@ No problem at all ❤️ Happy You like it. I personally use it in every shot 👌

[@cue300]

this is crazy! thank you

@@cue300 thanks! once I discovered it I was like “oh yeah i just found some kind of cheat code”

[@cooperclelan9761]

Nice video great information here

[@ShaneAndersonProductions]

Bro this is one of the best pieces of advice that I’ve seen on KZbin. I’m subscribing right now. I’m using filmbox as well and have been pulling up screencaps from movies as a reference, but this takes it to the next level. And this is way different than the typical “KZbinr” approach. Thanks man.

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@ShaneAndersonProductions hell yeah man! Thank you. That means a lot. It’s hard for me to be a typical “KZbinr”. Trying to find refreshing ideas that aren’t filled with stuff that people already know.

[@janno1983]

Thanks a lot. Great tutorial. Love that smirky smile.. haha

[@Verdugocm]

Can you make a video of you setting up your node trees love your stuff 🔥

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@Verdugocm yeah I definitely can do that. I have a quicker flow now with my regular node tree. I will definitely make a video for that as it should be pretty straight forward to do.

[@arnsteinjohansen]

Amazing🔥 I really enjoy your tutorials, so keem 'em coming!

[@JanikBrosFilms]

[@hattersarvan9139]

That’s an amazing tutorial and I still have mono nodes but god sake this is insane can we get the node structure? In upcoming videos

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@hattersarvan9139 you know what? That is a great idea. I will have to get on that.

[@reneiloe_m]

and tips for color management and export settings so we dont lose saturation and contrast after export ?

[@mateodani1006]

Greet tutorial!!!

[@raengraphy]

Great tutorial! Got me thinking of finally investing in some dctl to upgrade my my grading. How did the last node "rainbow" come about? Is it another type of dctl not mentioned on here?

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@raengraphy rainbow node is actually a lut. It’s in one of the links in the description. Thanks!

[@yannisgears]

Nice tuto !

[@lobsangwhite]

Nice video, loved the technique! By the way, you’re giving off some Kevin Malone vibes 😅

[@imiy]

Tools like this should be included in Resolve

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@imiy in the future maybe. Not having to base my grade off of scopes as much is amazing and to visualize it on my image is way more satisfying.

[@imiy]

@JanikBrosFilms they don't even have a false color as an overlay... That's weird

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@ well hopefully resolve gets it together on those aspects

[@erthboy47]

The full screen comparison looked like you two were looking at each other in a scene lol

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@erthboy47 if only I could be in a Ari aster movie 🎥 dreams

[@truevilmeow]

In the comparison at the end you should also show it bypassing the grade, great video though.

[@gurievmax]

wow! thank you!

[@jespersichlau4343]

Great tutorial! May I ask what camera you're shooting on? It looks very good.

[@LumeNovaX]

Okay, Thanks for the tutorial, very helpful! But what I really wanted to say is that you look just like Zack Morris (SaveByTheBell) if he was in his 50s reminiscing on the good old days. Can you please do a short film of an unhinged Zack, older, broke, not popular, talking to himself or calling his old friends (with an old school analog phone), and getting progressively upset as they dont want to talk or dont have time? I know, big ask, but I think it will A-) Get you tons of views/subs and B-) it will showcase your camera skill, and you already look like him so you dont even need to hire an actor! I know crazy comment, but please consider :)

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@LumeNovaX I will consider. lol. I will take that as a compliment on the Zack morris look a like comment. Watched reruns when I was a kid all the time.

[@LumeNovaX]

[@hugomalpeyre]

insane tutorial! 1 more sub! thx

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@hugomalpeyre thank you 🙏 I really appreciate the kind words.

[@omh186]

Interesting workflow but you could just do this much quicker with your trained eye. Good for beginners but way too slow for real world clients

[@JanikBrosFilms]

@@omh186 think of it like another set of scopes you can use for reference. Professsional colorists still use vector scopes, waveforms, and histograms etc. So “trained eyes” is great to have but scopes are mathematical in their precision and this is another type of scope for reference.
