Hi, I'm just starting to build my portfolio as a colorist and found this course very helpful. I have two questions and was wondering if you can provide some clarification.
1. All of my projects currently are outputting to SDR. Is there a benefit of working using HDR tools? If HDR tools behaves more naturally because it is color space aware, is it more "better" than primaries? Would you still use primaries to adjust the exposure/ contrast on a clip level.
2. I really enjoyed lesson 5 and 7 about creating the silver bleach bypass and the film emulation look. As a novice, I've been told to always keep blacks within the legal range 0 and looking at the scope is a good way to do that. I can't help but noticed that altough you've lifted the blacks when creating the look using the Arri test image, there are still some signals that are sitting below 0. Is that a problem?
