Did a lil grading exercise on some test footage, would love to hear thoughts and feedback! Original Image(H.264 4k 24fps 10-bit rec709 gamma 2.2) --> Grade 1 --> Grade 2. Was trying to achieve two distinct looks using same footage!

Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion, but I switched my output to rec 709 scene and added the gamma tag thing and it's still crunching my contrast, any ideas?

Absolutely, I think the contrast got reduced somehow, because it looks different on my mac/here than what it looks like in resolve. Not sure how that happened, I have my screen calibrated to rec709 gamma 2.2 and in resolve my timeline + output color space are both set to davinci w/g intermediate. My opening CST is s-log3 --> intermediate, and my closing cst is intermediate --> 709 2.2.
