  1. Use the tint control to bring it back to balance The tint control operates on the green/magenta axis.
  2. I recommend that you read this article from Parker Jarvie from Company 3. You can study the craft, learn to color and develop your taste on any system, and technicalities such as HDR deliveries etc should not be a focus at the level you are right now.
  3. Is the DCP creation a straight forward process in DaVinci Resolve now?
  4. Trying to figure out how I can remove the middle panel (curves/key/windows/track) etc from the DR UI? I know it's possible because I have accidentally removed it once.
  5. I can click the R, G, B, Y curves on and off but they are white - not colored.
  6. The three color channel curves in the waveform are white by default. Do you know how to set them to red, green and blue? I have seen that it's possible in some videos online.
  7. I have generated a grey scale but it's not possible to click the clip in the timeline. Is this a bug? It doesn't have a thumb either, just a track line next to V1. The other strange thing is that it's only visible on the timeline if I have another clip on the timeline as well (but still not clickable). The other clip has a visible thumb and is visible.
  8. Can't you just ingest the clips you need and switch to high rez when the edit is set? Then you will be able to work with low rez media and have all the handles you want available.
  9. What do you like about this? Most of it looks like straight out of cam, many bad balanced clips, the saturation levels are jumping all over. This is not colored by a professional and it's nothing that can't be recreated in two clicks here. A couple of basic tutorials would get you to a level that let you judge these clips yourselves.
  10. Is it poosible to adjust tint with accuracy with the offset controls?
  11. Do you know if the temperature slider affects the luminance levels?
  12. Do you know if Premiere did abandon *STL files on the lastest versions? Is SRT the new golden standard for subtitling?
  13. I haven't seen that option, but fire away an email to Flanders to be sure.
  14. Thank you Peter! Do you plan to reintroduce the old stabilizer? I find it quite useless now that I can't add and delete tracking points anymore.
  15. In Davinci Resolve 15 there is a preview of the LUT's when I use the mouse to hoover over the different them. Can I disable this function somehow?
  16. Remember that GIF can only show 256 colors so don't expect the result to be very good.
  17. I need to do a small job on a laptop next week. I seem to remember that it was possible to map the scopes to the bottom panel to integrate it in the UI? Instead of the keyframe window maybe?
  18. I'm a long time Avid user but are learning Premiere. I'm trying to figure out how to get more control over the imported clips. I can't find any global import settings or detailed settings in the interpret option of each clip. To be specific; In Avid I can choose the source levels such as RGB or rec709 so that I can make sure that the clips will be interpreted as rec709 if that is what I want. Do I have this control in Premiere? I also want to decide to import my clips "untouched". In Avid I can choose to not touch an image when importing or scale it to fit. How does it treat Alpha channel import? Can I choose to invert or ignore alpha? Tom
  19. Sim International is a great studio, looks like they are attracting many of the top colorists in the city and around.
  20. Some will might advice you to do different, but I would grade in 709 and do a DCP at the end. If you are not set up for full P3 with projector.
  21. I need to do a simple chrome key on a green screen backgroun to visualize how the final image will look like when doing the grade. How do I do that in Davinci Resolve?
  22. I don't understand what they are thinking... One core feature in stabilizing is to be able to manually add and remove tracking points. That option is like Bruno says only available in the classic stabilizer. It can be a slow process but it's worth the effort most times. Personally, I tend to go to After Effects' warp stabilizer as it often gives more pleasing results.
  23. DR15 bug! Right click on the drop down menu and choose disable GPU acceleration and you will be fine.
