Wish I could see this grade in motion, pretty nice, man. Best I've seen, personally.


Thanks man. I uploaded this last night, but I'm pretty disappointed with youtube's compression of course. Oh well, at this point we all know how awesome and sharp these files are rendered to a good codec.

It's because it's at max quality. Try keeping the file a little smaller. I think I exported out at 960x540 with 75% quality

I'm an aspiring colorist and I never worked with RAW media before, so It was kinda my first hands-on uncompressed footage. Really excited about the footage this camera can produce! Really easy to grade!
Played 10 mins in Resolve 9 before going to bed :

high-contrast version, some hsl-qualifiers, vignette

and this is my variation of the mostly hated Teal & Orange look :twisted:

VSCO Film is set out to emulate classic Photography film stocks for digital cameras by manipulating the color data from the RAW before it gets processed.

Needless to say, if I get the BMCC I'll be processing all my footage with VSCO Film before I edit to greatly reduce my grading time.

I could spend time tweaking the presets of course, but I wanted to see what it would give me stock.


That's not bad at all! It's pretty cool that BMD used an open standard so we can process the images in a number of different apps.

I was thinking though. These presets look great, but we might have to remove the grain and apply a grain intended for motion later in the workflow. I'm not sure, but wouldn't a Lightroom grain setting give you a static grain profile since it's intended for still photos?


Yeah I wouldn't use the grain in Lightroom. I don't know if the grain is random everytime it is applied, but I'd rather use grain plates from actual film stock that I have.

I'm very impressed with the camera controls in Resolve.

Grades.... You can do it in AF with Camera Raw from Adobe. I don't know why but i can't just find myself in davinci resolve. If you open the AE and on the project table right click on the import-> multiple files you will be able to open DNG in camera raw and then on timeline of AE to see what have you grade. Sory for my bad english ;)

There is a example of my grades:

http://blackleaf.co/UPLOAD/bmc2.mp4
i9 10980xe@5.0, 128GB, RTX-3090, Decklink mini monitor 4k,
media - RAID 0 4x samsung evo 970 plus 16TB, cache - samsung 960 pro 512GB, OS - samsung evo 970 256GB, archive 30TB+

Yeah, I actually tried this out and it's just static grain pattern overlaid over the image. Looks really weird.

Thanks John! It was interesting to play with these in resolve vs the 'log stills' released earlier. I ended up pulling down the exposure and adjusting the white balance/tint for each clip before doing a "grade" - is the metadata for how it was set in camera not coming in correctly to resolve ? Or is how these appear at 'default' in resolve what you were seeing as you shot?

Will you be able to post log prores files at some point? I would love to play with them to compare.

Thanks again. :)

The meta data really only seems to carry for WB.

Exposure seems to be variable. It "feels as though it's over but nothing is actually clipped. Once you bring the range back into the middle with the exposure slider it should be good. I think the way the images in resolve display, don't really have anything to do with how they look on set. Just liek they look totally different again if you use Preview, LR or PS. Each one has a totally different *take* on the image.

I'll post some ProRes FILM shots as soon as I'm able to.

I thought as much. Thanks for the info. I might have a go at these from Capture One (my RAW convertor of choice) to compare as well. Cheers!

Okay, something is up.

Opening a frame in Capture One and the exposure and wb/tint are VERY different to Resolve. In Capture One it appears to be how i assume it looked 'on set'. Resolve had wb @6500 and tint @0. I tried changing clip settings around from as shot/default and eventually went with per clip and set it all myself.

Capture One has wb @4489 and tint @-13,7.
The Capture One default actually looks pretty damn good off the bat, especially exposure.
I just tried with Aperture. Too hot and wb is @5565 and tint @4.
Lightroom. WAY too hot and wb @5550 tint @14.

I've never had such discrepancies with other still raw files in the various apps.

I graded mine in FCPX. Downloaded the afterglow DNG lies, opened them in Resolve 9 beta. Rendered them to Prores 444 then imported them to FCPX. Applied Luster Grade Presets just to see how awesome it is, here they are overlayed.:)

This is my take on the raw files. Wanted to use Resolve, but have to learn it first and I just wanted a quick play-around. Did the grading in After Effects CS6 using Magic Bullet Looks en Colorista II. Tried to go for a realistic, filmic approach:

Are you talking iMac? I have the 27" iMac (late 2009) and you've got further into Resolve than I have. Which version of Resolve are you using?

As far as I know, there's no external GPU option for the iMac. And you cannot upgrade the built-in card (like my ATI 4850) because no one is authorized to do that... it's not even a 'card' of course as it's just a circuit board soldered to the main board I believe. I asked my local reseller to do the upgrade, but they said they can't as Apple doesn't supply any beefier daughter-cards for our model.

Hi,

It was only some camera raw. Mainly warming the white balance and lowering the contrast using curves


Here is a a new take based on the same settings but with some basic After Effects curves and hue/saturation.

Here's my quick test grade. The video noise looks like film grain, the detail pulled back from the highlights and shadows is awesome; it's like going back to the digital darkroom and discovering Canon RAW for the first time again. This is a great tool.

Uploaded at 720p - also with the typical gamma shift problems when converting/outputting (still haven't found a solid way around that.. anyone??)

no offense to the other people, but these are the best ones by far :D
