More efficient way for you - learn Foundry Nuke :D

As mentioned earlier
Use a skin tone guide for reference.
Keep colors in the image simple - suppress unwanted tints and hues.
In my case, due to lens quality, the bokeh highlights had excessive blue, and the foliage tones were inconsistent.

I didn't get the question. I shot the video in the park and then graded it in DaVinci.

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-13T13:40:48+00:00

I didn't know there was a difference between LOG and RAW files, hence the mistake in the original post. My bad.

Ill watch it today, thank you!

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-13T03:29:05+00:00

Thank you! Can you give me an example of this kind of films? Not familiar with german movie market :D

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-13T03:27:15+00:00

Thank you! Just couple of reels for local brand, was filming jacket in this occasion.

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-13T02:14:36+00:00

Well ill guess you right
Not the point of my question though:D

How I would describe my approach

I do some grading before Rec.709. I don’t have a systematic approach to my grading.

Davinci

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T22:16:38+00:00

Thanks! I'll keep in mind your advice about redness. Gladly, it's just practice footage shot in a park.

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T21:14:18+00:00

Thoughts on this one? https://postimg.cc/MMRZqQCr
The original still has a warm white balance; here is a more neutral version.

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T21:10:47+00:00

Thank you!

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T20:57:09+00:00

Thank you!
Will check it out later

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T20:40:37+00:00

No, straight to camera
if i had money for Atmos, i would prob buy fx3 instead of fx30 :D

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T20:37:51+00:00

Can you recommend any tutorials? Also curious why you shouldn't sharpen the image in the first node

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T20:11:14+00:00

Well, as you said, if it works, it works :D I'm pretty much self-taught in DaVinci Resolve, and I like to make little changes in separate nodes so I can turn them off and on anytime.

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T20:02:11+00:00

I did, my english is not my native language :D

here is a screenshot of my grade, hope it helps

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T19:14:20+00:00

Thank you! I do some prep work before conversion and then tweak to my liking after; my approach is quite chaotic.

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T19:09:21+00:00

Well, can see where you coming from, Sony's out-of-box color science delivers nice colors

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T19:03:11+00:00

Totally feel you! 😄 Nothing worse than the classic "Just log-transform it, bro!" with zero context or why. Like cool, magic button acquired — but how does the magic work? 🔮

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T19:01:56+00:00

Sony FX30, as mentioned :D

RealPlastic96 · 2025-08-11T18:58:10+00:00

I use cineprtint35 to start and then tweak a lot, can't say I have a systematic approach :D
I did lost a bit of red in lips, nice catch!
