ACES LITE - WORKFLOW

GRADE EXAMPLES

COLOR CORRECTION LIKE RAW

Even when your camera doesn't shoot RAW video.

Fix White Balance like RAW
Fix Exposure like RAW

EMULATE ANALOG FILM

Emulate film's look, texture and effects with fast presets.


MATCH CAMERAS

Match your cameras together or match yours to an Arri Alexa.


MAXIMISE YOUR DYNAMIC RANGE

Learn a advanced local tone mapping -techniques to maximise your cameras dynamic range.


EMULATE OPTICAL FILTERS IN POST

Shoot a clean video, but stylise it in post with post filttering effects to emulate tiffen's pro-mist for example



MATCH DAVINCI TO WEB

Set-up Resolve to match exactly how your video will look on youtube, Instagram, Vimeo etc.


WORKS WITH 8 BIT FOOTAGE

We can't all shoot RAW video and some can't even shoot 10bit log... Well 8 bit works as well. I recommend HLG profiles or very well exposed log, BUT it works.


BETTER EFFECTS FOR FILM EMULATIONS

I have rebuild some of the effects in DaVinci Resolve for better more accurate results. Below an example of Halation effect.

WHO IS TEACHING THE WORKSHOP?

HI, I'M JOONAS!

I have more than a decade of experience with video production and thousands of hours spent understanding and playing with color.

I'm not the world leading color scientist or a hollywood level master colorist, but I might just be the best person to teach you how to make your videos look like movies.

I'm happy to help and answer any of your questions about this course or color grading in general.

FEED BACK

FROM STUDENTS

You have singlehandedly changed my color grading on Davinci. ACES Lite is so easy and everything looks so f***ing amazing. The way the HDR wheels work in ACES is very close to how DXO or Capture One controls work. Being a photographer for the past few years, everything finally clicked as soon as I got into it.
