Common Mistake Beginners Make When Balancing Their Footage | DaVinci Resolve 17 Tutorial

Was it showing the green being adjusted instead of blue when you were subtracting yellow from offset?

Best video you ever made! This perfectly explained to me step one! Getting the image balanced first with Offset then start grading 🙏 thanks so much! You're the best, man!

This is really really well explained

Superb tutorial 🎉

genuinely useful video, thanks!

thanks

Dang. Thank you for being so good at this

You are my hero

This video particularly is GOLD!! I am sooo thankful for all your knowledge and work to share it, the grey scale image is a genius move and it just became so clear all of the sudden!! You really inspire me and certainly a lot of other people, I am considering to take your master class one day!

Keep it up bro 🔥🔥

What an excellent tutorial thank you Qazi ! ... guys qazi is a busy guy help... why cant i use my numpad to change the yelow values!!! am i not pressing something or do i have to be in a specif section ??? im coming in from premier so this is all alien to me

you're an encyclopedia for color grading!

THIS IS JUST AMAZING

Is there a way to do it on HDR or should we start on offset?

What is printerlights?

how to hover certain part of the image and saw it in the scopes

That was bomb ..., I have a doubt , before even we correct our images , can we colour manage the image in settings ? and then finally funnel it to the rec 709? (for eg : like using DaVinci wide gamut for log footages which will help us in getting better push and pull for blacks and highlights, and finally use CST's )

No, I want someone who can show and explain in Da Vinci how to retain skin color when grading? When I start messing around with the colorwheels the sking gets affected as well, it becomes to warm, greenish, to cold etc.. and the colors are shifting, but I only want a certain look not shifting colors.

Love the vignette cleanup technique. I've used it a few times already.

What's that plug in that tell the location of the picker in the scopes?

What color science are you working in under color management?

Offset control method for balancing is genius. This is what I was missing thank you

Wow, this the best vid you've done! Thanks a million. Also, how do you get that little colour picker thing that shows the circles in the scopes when you hover over an area? Looks super useful

what key do you press to have a circle in your scopes when you checked the skintones?

🤔

good. but when do we apply lift gamma gain for colour correction without getting strange shifts and non linear then??

I didn't understand the order in this video, the grain is the last layer? Or is it the first but you just do it last. The nodes are right to letf here?

Mind blowing. Thank you!

Without the while balance image looked so goood

wow! This is gread info, Thank you

Amazing information as always! How do I see values in ref to my scopes when I hover over part of the image?

Hey Waqas, Love the video! so much good content
Had a question, and seen you do it alot, but how do I enable the hover indicator to see what parts of the image fall into what parts of the graph?

Super helpful! how do you get that ring on the waveforms to tell you where your levels are using the qualifier tool?

great tutorial as always. i just have one thing to say, please share the image you are working on with your audience if it's possible so when you do something, we can try it too on the spot.

thanks man. you are truly a great teacher.

Would you recommend starting with offset for WB vs temp and tint to get things balanced? I feel like I’ve seen you take both approaches, but maybe I’m missing something and need to circle back. I feel offset is the way to go, but you’re the pro! Just trying to establish a workflow.

wow, damn! I've never questioned how TEMP and TINT work, simply trusted that they would do what i expected. Though I didn't really use them to change temp and tint as I was able to work with raw footage most of the time, that's a really interesting point you're making and proves that we should consider reviewing what or nodes do more often using the greyscale. THANKS A LOT man!

Hey there, what setting turns on that little circle when you're using the skin tone indicator. When I hover my mouse over the image I don't get that little circle that shows up on the vector scope like it does for you.

this tips work out for me so much, the image is much better. Thanks boss hoping to join your course by the end of this year

If I could subscribe to your channel twice I would.

why do you put the color space transform at the end not the first? thanks, the great video!

Anyone have a link for a centralized hotkey guide? Like when he says "im subtracting yellow from the offset wheel" what would that hotkey be?

its been 2 and half year i am learning from u....its a great learning curve...thank u so much for putting these extra ordinary effort...♥️

This is such an informative video that explains how it works and why other ways don't so well. So easy to understand. Is there a way of achieving this Offset option easily inside Final Cut Pro? I would love to know if its an option
