Why I NEVER use LUTs - Color Grading

Color grade and chill is a good example of having fun color grading!

Most helpful and short color grading tutorial I have seen. Thank.

Owns a Mac and then uses Adobe premier...

But you said in the comments at make of photos are memories that varicam vlog lut was the base for your grading process??

EXCELLENT sound. Like it.
And thx for this insight, sir.

I like the message, but one thing you should use is a De-esser.

Subtitles are russian. nice.

Salute, comrade! 🤘

very informational I love it!

💯

You make very good tutorials

I never use Luts. I Don't even want to know how to use a lot.

Can't watch with you flaying your hands around.

i am collor blind so its a pain full job the collor section

Nice. Yeah I think those curves can seem a bit intimidating, but a good teacher can make them seem easy and fun to use! Thanks

LUTs are kind of garbage. All they are are presets that people have graded things with before but unless you're in a studio the color balance shifts everytime you shoot. Learn how to grade and you're good to go to have awesome looking footage everytime.

Thanks for this video. Really useful ..

Are you talking about only looks lut or overall? pardon me if thats very basic missing knowledge kind of question but im new to this work. Is a log footage not supposed to be converted to rec709 first and then grade? and to convert log to 709 u use lut? could u please clearify, thanks.

Appreciate cha Big Dawg!! I just hit u up on your vid!

Waoow great work, simple, effective and you helped me a lot.

Thank you and i subscribed to your channel 😃👍👍

Bro you got me feeling some type of way with color grading!

Excellent

Firstly, thank you very much for the tutorial. If I am not wrong you shoot with G7, do you set everything to - 5? I use G85 and set everything to same except shadows and highlights to - 3

Very helpful man. thanks

Does CC 2018 lack some of the Curves? :)

Qual configuração de cor da lumix G7 ?

I downloaded lots of LUTS but haven't used any of them.

So, do you still shoot flat?

Is it premiere pro cc 2019?

Thanks! :)

De-esser

I've been ruining my footage using LUTs I feel now. Thank you man, will try this on the next project!

This is great, thanks!

yikes premiere looks so weird with how used i am to resolve at this point haha
i know this kind of stuff isnt really needed / expected from the gaming content that i do, but i love editing, so anything that i could learn that could even remotely apply to resolve is so cool :D

I use luts on video that's got a really tight deadline usually, but I agree the turning on and off of the grading layers is satisfying

Hello, Aidin! Do you make Basic Correction in Lumetri Color Panel or you use only curves to control the exposure?
Thanks for your work!

Thanks man, this video helped me so much with my colour grading so thx

Do you record in RAW?

I am a lut slut. I might have to rethink my life choices!😂😂😂

Did you go film school ?

What about sharpness?

Dope!

Do you ever use the sliders on the basic correction tab?

Well, not really agree with your opinion, I always use LUTS for my log footage with my gh5 and red epic, and adapt it to my footage by making a few changes on luminance (IRE level) I don't think you should buy luts but make your own, it's very important to colour grade on log footage in order to keep information in your shadows... especially with log dynamic range, you get very detailed shadows... don't clip your highlights too much... cine-d In your waveform should be exposed between 36Ire and 70IRE, use 18% grey card to expose and make your white balance. For log, its around 45Ire. don't clip your highlights, this is big mistake... I usually expose +1 stop over on my gh5. hope it helps

Dude, this is the most straightforward color grading video I've ever seen. Color grading has always been my weakest point in filmmaking. Now I'm stoked to get in there and give it another try. Thanks brotha. You got another sub! 🔔

@aidin Nice! I feel a little more confident now. Ima have to try this!
