  1. Hi! I would like to know what codecs and file format you use for your projects? Thank you so much!
  2. Hey guys, would love to know what tips and tricks you use in grading a car commercial, particularly an SUV. This is my first time grading one, so it would really help if I know a thing or two about it. Thanks!
  3. Great! Thank you for sharing your experience Margus, that made me more thrilled to use ACES in a project. It's good to know that a fellow colorist used it as well without using the exr workflow.
  4. Lovely colors you got here Margus! Did you use the ACES workflow (with the EXR output etc) or only in Resolve?
  5. Thanks for this in-depth answer Orash, I really appreciate it and it gave me a wider understanding of using ACES. Last question though, in our workflow, grading comes first then the vfx artists will match their comps with the grade, then if there are fixes to be made in the grading it will be post graded in the online with the output of the vfx artists, meaning I will not go back to the original grade, if it's only minor fix ups. In using ACES in the grading, the only advantage of using it is the color space right? If my output will be non ACES? Is our workflow ideal or should we revise it? Most of our projects are commercials. Thanks!
  6. Are there any advantages in using ACES in non ACES workflows? Thanks for taking the time to reply to my questions! Much appreciated.
  7. what do you mean by burn in? sorry I'm very new to this aces workflow. I just want to utilize the color space of ACES inside resolve then output it as non-ACES format like TIFF. Is that possible?
  8. Is it possible to use the ACEScc color space ver. 1.0 then output it as a TIFF file Rec 709? This means that the output will revert back to the default color space of DaVinci Resolve right? What I want to achieve is that, my output will be directly used by the VFX compositors disregarding the aces workflow. Thanks!
  9. This is pretty good! Thanks for this! Never thought about using mattes as stylizing tools in grading.
