Blackmagic has excellent instruction books on color grading. I'd like to suggest that they add one more to their repertoire. How about a cookbook with recipe's on post production workflows (ACES, RCM, CST, etc.) and using their different color science (Gen4, Gen5) in Resolve, how to get it right, recipes for color correcting, recipes for accomplishing certain look, recipes on color space transformation, applying LUT correctly, advance recipes of the pros, etc. I think folks like Captain Hook, Alexis Van Hurkman, Doin Scoppettuolo (pardon if I mispelled your last name), Marc Wielage, and the expert and experience trainers in BMD can collaborate. That will be amazing. If done right, this should not be on how to use Resolve, but a desktop resource of recipes that a budding or even pro colorist can pick up when they need a quick "How can I do this task?" reference of recipes and follow it succinctly. This will be a terrific resource, IMO.
BTW, what I am suggesting is not another Alexis Van Hurkman Color Correction Handbook which is thorough and in depth, and an excellent book which I constantly go back to. But a cookbook of the hundreds or thousands of ways and techniques in short recipe form that can be immediately use and applied when one is looking for a solution to a problem or work.
