Tyhis course is about one of the most popular topics in the world of color grading; grading under a print film emulation.

In the first part, he will show you how to select the correct emulation and set it up properly.

Thanks Cullen! Is there any reason behind choosing ACES AP0 vs AP1? I've heard that AP0 is mainly for storage and archival since it's a massive gamut. It also produces more muted colors than AP1.

Thank you.  As a former timer in the old film days on my trusted Hazeltine,  I can't help think that grading under an PFE is far more restrictive in a creative sense, your thoughts on this? Additionally, whats the pros & cons on setting your color management/science at the project level verses in the node structure?

We shoot a lot of RED Komodo where I work. What would be your Tone Mapping and Gamut Mapping settings when going from 
Input Color Space - REDWideGamutRGB, Input Gamma - RedLog3G10 to Output Color Space - ARRI Wide Gamut 3, Output Gamma - ARRI LogC3

Thanks in advance.

Hi there Cullen, 

I was playing around with your techniques from lecture 2 in resolve.... I just have a a few questions about it.

first off what is the link to the grade assist? I went to the raven grade website and it wasn't clear where I could find that particular thing without buying a package..? 

2) I tried to adjust contract your way (luminosity)  and found that my vectorscope didn't stay put after turning off and on.... could this  because of how far I adjusted it? large increments rather then very small? 

Note: I tried to do this on an already dull image (monochrome). This was also not using a lut first. 

Thanks,
