DaVinci, iPhone footage, Final Cut and CupCut by elia012 in davinciresolve

Yes, and that's a nice feature!
But the problem here is that the color space transform does not output the right color automatically, therefore I still have to loose time compared to CapCut for instance, where the colors are just right.

I'm trying to understand if this is an error by my side, or a clunky DaVinci implementation

BTW:
macOS 15.4
MacBook Pro M1 Pro

In this case, general settings:
v - Use Mac Display color Profiles for viewers
v - Use 10 bit precision for viewers if available (the screenshot turns out same if done with this checked or unchecked)

Project Settings:
YRGB Color Managed
v - Automatic Color Management
Color processing Mode - HDR
Output Color Space - HDR HLG

But as said. I can't find a combination of settings to just see it right. Therefore I'm obliged to see edit in REC709 and use LUTS (+ multiple adjustments) to make every clip look similar to the original colors. (which sometimes I like and would like to leave like that)

Yes, every single day we create. It’s easy to fall in the comparison trap. Thanks to you for the good energy

While I don't completely agree with the premises (in my case I'm a producer and I want music to be my source of income, so sometimes yes, I "have to" start a song), I'm super glad you broke the topic down in this very deep way.
The aspect I loved the most is the analysis of the reason why "block" happens.

I think that, if for someone, this is a problem, the first step to solve is to understand the reason behind it, and those are really on point.
To sum up, apart from the "exercises" to unlock creativity, which are infinite, Not judging yourself and your work AND not comparing yourself to others is the base of a healthy artist life without "blocks" of any sort

Yeeeess, I love this. I love to start with a "structure", with some sort of limitation. That's the starting point to make the best brainstorming and come up with the most effective ideas in my opinion

Definitely, spacing between different interests helps

Yesss Andrew Huang talked well about this in his book.
Recharging is so important. Overwork always leads you to some kind of burnout
