Hi,
I've spent most of my worklife in postproduction for print/digital and photography: retouching and colour-grading for stills. Currently in my mid-40s, I'm looking at something new (yet related), and would like to become a colorist. I'm aware of various online courses for DaVinci, but since I live in London a more hands-on approach via some week-end courses is also an option for me.
Can anyone (from personal experience) recommend a good training facility? Obviously, a teacher's knowlede/teaching-style can make or break a course – so I thought I'd reach out here to see if anyone can point me in the right direction. The courses from sohoeditors.com look quite interesting. Has anyone been with them?
Many thanks!

Hi,
After doing some research, it seems like the "Euphonix MC Color" is pretty much identical to the "Avid Artist Color".I'm currently setting up a new editing system: 2018 MacMini + eGPU. Don't want to spend big bucks on other hardware quite yet, and have seen some decently priced Euphonix panels on eBay.
Can anyone verify if they're compatible with Mac OS Mojave / Resolve 16?
Many thanks!
Colorist training courses in London?

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. This confirms what I suspected/assumed.
Re:youtube, it's the same in my current domain (retouching) – lots of tutorials out there, but hard to gauge a tutorial's quality unless you already have some experience.
In the past, I've always had a methodical approach to learning things. I've started reading up terminology (which is similar yet different to the world of stills retouching – colour spaces, codecs, file formats). After that, I guess it's about understanding/being able to interpret scopes/waveforms (as opposed to just histograms/curves in the stills world),... and of course learning the software/shortcuts, and being able to efficiently use a panel.
Having had a play with DaVinci, I'm already fairly excited about what's possible... I've done some basic colour corrections for some stills images with Davinci, which would be a lot more complicated in Photoshop.
I'll definitely take a close look at the training websites you recommended, and also the membership/courses here on Lowepost.
Thanks again for your input!
