Need Guidance on Dolby Vision to DCI-P3 and IMAX Workflow
Andreas Brückl replied to Soumitra Sarkar's topic in Baselight
It all depends on the footage. If you have harsh highlights or a very high key image” then your HDR pass needs a lot of adjustment. In this case you do your first pass in HDR without! adjusting your top highlights too much or you have to stretch them again in P3. So you have to find a middle ground. And of course-you might have less details in P3. …less dynamic range. The DV pass is for SDR REC709, not for P3. Generally: make less contrast for the HDR pass. punch the highlights up for the SDR pass. There is no “one fits all” rule. -
Need Guidance on Dolby Vision to DCI-P3 and IMAX Workflow
Soumitra Sarkar replied to Soumitra Sarkar's topic in Baselight
Thank you sir for your valuable feedback. As per your suggestions, at first I finished my HDR grade then I just change my viewing colourspace to nomal DCI P3 & offset. Now I have to face with some problem. I notice that After convert the colour space to P3 & offset , the pick highlight of a shot have no details, to get back the details in highlight I need to regrade the shot in the first layer where I do the Base grade. On the other hand when I do the DV pass it’s getting back the pick highlight but looks muddy to see in P3 projector. need your suggestions once again. Waiting for feedback ***one more things, if I increase the saturation & brightness of a shot in first layer too much , then I insert a layer and reduce the pick highlight with BaseGrade tool & reduce the saturation with hue shift tool , is that right procedure ? Recent a DoP force me to follow this procedure but I said it’s wrong procedure to grade. Am I right or wrong ? -
Editing in DaVinci Resolve
Satyam Mishra commented on Lowepost's course in Editing & Sound
Hey Kevin, I’m using DaVinci Resolve 20. I’m able to perform a ripple cut using Cmd + \, but I’m having trouble with clip replacement. When I try to replace a clip, it also replaces the original audio — even though the audio track is locked. I’ve tried several times, but the issue persists. Not sure what’s going wrong? Thanks -

Need Guidance on Dolby Vision to DCI-P3 and IMAX Workflow
Andreas Brückl replied to Soumitra Sarkar's topic in Baselight
Probably already solved, but here is the solution: You can grade in HDR-no need to make a DV pass, yet. Take the timeline once done and as you are grading in a scene referred environment it should just convert to P3 easily. Then you do a little offset. India projectors are 12ftl that’s why your offset needs a bit more power. For IMAX you can give them the normal P3 DCP render. They will do the rest. All IMAX are done at PrimeFocus in Mumbai. You can also ask them if you have any doubts. Additional info: Imax has to accept the film first as it works on a revenue share basis. If they say yes, then it will go to the IMAX cinema. good luck -

Filmlight Colour Awards opens 2025 entries
Daphne FilmLight posted a topic in General Discussions
Entries open from 1 May - 31 July to colourists on any grading platform The FilmLight Colour Awards are returning for their fifth year, with colourists, production companies and facilities invited to put forward their submissions from 1 May – 31 July 2025. The awards are open to colourists working on any grading system and are independently evaluated by a panel of distinguished cinematographers, fellow colourists, media experts and industry figures. Once again this year, colourists can submit their favourite projects across six categories:Theatrical Feature; Television Series/Episodic (including documentary/non-fiction); Commercial; Music Video; Emerging Talent (open to colourists age 18-35, for commercial or music video projects); and Spotlight, which recognises colourists who have contributed to the creative impact of a film with a total budget of less than $3 million USD. Since starting in 2021, the FilmLight Colour Awards have gone from strength to strength, with more than 500 entries in 2024, from over 48 countries. “I was inspired enormously by the quality of work,” said George Miller, Jury Guest of Honor, from the 2024 ceremony. “There are many things that allow enthusiasm for the moving image, and two of them are key: the evolution of the tools we have to work with, and the artists whose brilliance we acknowledge here.” Last year FilmLight added the Emerging Talent category, to promote the work of a new generation of colourists. It was won by freelance colourist Douglas Dutton for his work on the ‘Baltic, Harmonical Diffraction’ commercial. “It’s an immense honour to be selected as a winner in the Emerging Talent category,” said Dutton. “Getting recognition from people I look up to in the industry feels phenomenal. Thank you FilmLight for organising this incredible event.” The 2025 winners will be announced at a dedicated ceremony at EnergaCAMERIMAGE on Sunday 16 November 2025, where their projects will be showcased to the global community of cinematographers, colourists and creatives attending the festival. In recognition of their achievement, all 2025 winners will also receive a one year licence for Baselight M, the new macOS version of FilmLight’s Baselight grading system. You can watch highlights from the 2024 ceremony in the new teaser video, here, and see the full list of 2024 nominees and winners here. The awards are led and organised by FilmLight, in conjunction with EnergaCAMERIMAGE. It’s also supported by the AFC (French Society of Cinematographers), AMC (Mexican Society of Cinematographers), ASC (American Society of Cinematographers), BSC (British Society of Cinematographers), BVK (German Society of Cinematographers), CNSC (Chinese Society of Cinematographers), CSI (Colorist Society International), ISC (Indian Society of Cinematographers), ShotDeck (fully-searchable cinematic image library), and more.

Masterclass in Color Grading with Lynette Duensing
Willard Jansen commented on Lowepost's course in Color Grading Masterclasses
This is very helpful and nicely presented. I admire your work. I wonder though about one technical issue I have. When I set my color space to Aces in the project settings, I get very dark poster fames in the edit page timeline and clips poster frames on the color page. That doesn't happen id I use unmanaged and set to Aces in nodes. Updating thumbnails doesn't help It happens on all kinds of footage, both REC709 and Log. -
Hi everyone, I’m a Baselight colorist working on an upcoming feature film where the primary output is for theatrical release (DCI-P3), but the DoP insists on grading in Dolby Vision HDR first. I initially suggested grading in P3 first since the target audience is theatre-goers, but he’s fixed on starting with Dolby Vision. I’m also aware that Dolby Vision SDR trims do not translate well to cinema P3 DCP Now, there’s an additional request to deliver a version optimized for IMAX — and here’s where I need some guidance. I’ve never delivered for IMAX before, and I want to ensure: The DCI-P3 theatrical output is not compromised, since it’s the main release. I produce a proper IMAX version without just handing over the standard P3 DCP. My Setup: Sony BVM-X300 for Dolby Vision HDR grading. Barco DCI-P3 projector for theatrical grading. please suggest popular workflow & guide

In DaVinci R, G, and B values are adjustable from -3 to +5. The values given works fines. Check Monochrome and use decimal format of percent. 100%/100 = 1.00, etc... -

Monitoring in QHD Monitor
Marcelo Cosme posted a topic in DaVinci Resolve
Hello, I'm going to do some color grading work outside my company and the client has a 27" QHD OLED monitor (2560 x 1440) for reference. I'll be working on 2 projects, one of them in 1080p (FHD) and the other in 2160p (UHD). Currently Davinci doesn't have a QHD monitoring output. The computer is using a Decklink mini monitor 4K via HDMI. What can I do? Thanks!
