  1. Hi everyone, 🙂 I am currently working on a edit and a grade for an important Australian institute, and they have asked me a few questions about automation and shot balance for a photogrammetry job. I can't disclose too many details at this point, but they are looking for someone who can write code to assist them with their specific automation process. They aim to optimize their pipeline. The ideal candidate should have a good understanding of color science and a solid knowledge of Python. Do you happen to know anyone who might be up for the task? Here is my email address if you'd like to contact me directly. postprod.clementbouchet@gmail.com Regards,
  2. Hi everyone, I would like to check what is the mid gray value for the Blackmagic Film gen 5 value (log). I am making LUTs for a shoot and I want to be sure I set it properly. I have been following Current Kelly creative color science masterclasses and his documentation says 0.466. (mid Grey Cheatsheet_CKC) Blackmagic documentation says : “Blackmagic Film Generation 5 encodes 10.27 stops above 18% grey. Middle (18%) grey is mapped to 0.3835616438356165” you can find the doc once you have installed Resolve: C:\Program Files (x86)\Blackmagic Design\Blackmagic RAW\Blackmagic RAW SDK\Documentation What is the correct value? Do I not understand an important concept here? Something about the metric? I am not talking about 10 or 12bits scales. (I have been doing some tests with the 0.466 value and I have compared it with the Blackmagic Film Gen 5 Extended video LUT and it looked pretty good to me. I am sure I shot with the latest firmware, in GEN 5, and my project and raw files, I have shot myself with the latest camera firmware, are set up in GEN 5. I am building my LUTs in Fusion) Thank you very much. 🙂

    I've worked as Colourist assistant on an ad for Steve Yedlin. I've learnt a lot really fast at that time! 🙂
  4. Looking great mate! I'll check if this is available in Australia.
  5. Hi Spencer, I've been doing color grading on a professional level for 6-8 years now. But I still think I can't say I am a senior. A decade sounds good but it will also depend on the quality of the experience you get with time and if you are doing the job full time. No clear answers here. There is so much to learn, Cheers,
  6. Hi François, I have found a panel last weekend but thank you very much for the offer. Regard,
  7. Hi everyone! I am selling my micro panel (Blackmagic Micro panel) because I have bought another panel. I have barely used it because I have been using the panel we have in the office. It is in excellent condition. 😊 Price is $1000 AUS (selling in Australia ONLY/Postage cost is not included) Original price was $1373 I still have the receipt. Contact: I am living in Sydney. postprod.clementbouchet@gmail.com https://www.clementbouchet.com/
  8. Hi everyone, Anyone selling a Tangent panel BUNDLE in Australia? I'm living in Sydney but I could buy it from anywhere in Australia. I have one at work but I would like to get one to work from home too. I have a Blackmagic micro panel but I can't use printer points with it. My email: postprod.clementbouchet@gmail.com https://www.clementbouchet.com/grade-reel Thank you.
  9. Hi Thomas, The box 'Automatically match master timeline is ticked so Resolve creates a master timeline for me. And the grade version is remote. (And sync master timeline to current frame is ticked in the user preferences) Cheers,
  10. Hi everyone, I'm using the Davinci Resolve for many years and I noticed it's missing a major "feature" that was in previous versions. (since version 14) When working in projects with a MASTER TIMELINE, I often grade within an AAF/XML timeline and render the master timeline. What's happening now is that when I'm in the AAF timeline, and I need to see the current clip in the MASTER timeline, I used to be able to just switch to it via the drop down over the record monitor. However, when I switch to the master timeline now, it just goes to the head of the master timeline instead of the selected clip. No sync between the playhead of the timeline I'm working in and the master timeline anymore. I have already ticked the box "Sync master timeline to current frame" in the user preferences (I've also tried to restart resolve or build a new project) It is happening since version 14. I have tried this on PC, mac and many computers. I really don't know what I'm missing. Thank you for your time and sorry for the grammar. Cheers,
  11. Are you tried to add monochromatic noise on your plates? It will help a lot for 8 bits renders. We do that all the time at my workplace.
  12. Hi Everyone, I'm trying to build a flicker effect in Fusion. I know there a tool for it but it doesn't behave like I want. (Or I don't know to use it properly) I want a random change of the exposure or the gamma but between a min and max value I can choose. I want the values to only go lower than the original exposure. (never higher) Do you know a expression for that? I've tried few things and I've looked online , I've also compared it with the tools in Flame and AE but I failed... Thank you very much. 🙂
  13. Hi guys, Is there any solution for monitor calibration when you are living in a country where there are no calibration professional? An automatic calibration solution? (with there own spectrometer and such) I was thinking about the Eizo CG279 X with the integrated calibration tool. My budget is $4000-$5000. Thank you. ^^
  14. Here is my colour grading reel and the link for my website! 😊 https://www.clementbouchet.com/grade-reel I've been working in France, New-Caledonia and Australia. (editing, colour grading and a bit of VFX) Have a look!
  15. Hi everyone,😊 Looks like the CG248 4K monitor has been discontinued. I need a self calibrated monitor because I might go in a country where there are no experts and proper calibration tools. I can see there are others Eizo monitor which could do the job but there are HDR. It might be a bit overkill for me. I will mostly do REC709 grade. Should I invest in an HDR monitor like the ColorEdge CG247X or the ColorEdge CG279X? My budget is $4000 Do you know other brands who offers Self calibrated solutions for video colour grading? (up to UHD) My budget is $4000 (Australian) A lot of questions I know ^^ Thank you!!!!!!!!!🙂
