Thanks for the feedback Kye. I am assuming everyone is explaining the controls because they are explaining to newer users of resolve? Not sure... I definitely find that there is a lack of intermediate/expert information out there, but I guess that makes sense since they are working. Anyhow, I’ll probably put a few more of these out in the future. What I have learned over the years is that it takes a lot of time to learn something like colouring. Just doing it over and over helps you improve.

@mojo43 watched the video - cool stuff!
It's definitely a striking result, and you explained it pretty well.  
Some thoughts if I may..  
Yes, please make more videos showing your grades   One thing I've noticed from other grading videos is that they start off by talking about the colour, but every time they touch a control they then explain what the control is and how to use it (literally things like which way to drag the mouse to change the value) and I find that really infuriating, so don't fall into the trap of over-explaining the tools (which you didn't) How to use Resolve is covered by many many people, but what isn't covered is the art side of it, both from a perspective of talking about what you're seeing (eg, how to choose a good amount of contrast and what you're looking for) as well as from a perspective of why you want that much contrast and how that relates to the content of your film (eg, how colours link with the emotions of the characters, etc) If you can talk about the art and not how to use each tool then you'll find yourself without that much competition, and the videos will be useful to people who already know how to drive the tools.
I'm looking forward to the next one!

I posted a few clips from a shoot I was on in Guatemala on social and had a bunch of people ask me to show how I coloured one of the clips so I decided to put a quick tutorial together. Thought that I would share here in case anyone is interested. Doesn't seem to be that much on YT for Davinci Resolve.

Great tutorial man. Really well explained and simplified process, thanks!

I'll watch when I get home, but you're right about not so much on YT.  I started a thread about Resolve and colour grading just to collect resources so that we can share them - it's here:

I have been playing around with this adapter for the past three or four projects and I am really enjoying shooting with it. For the price I think it’s really worth it IMO. Let me know if you have any questions.
 
 

Sigh!
 
ANOTHER thing I now want.       It will not replace my all time favourite 17mm TSE but to use on some of my FD lenses (and Tamron adaptall lenses with FD adaptall) would be fun to try.    Time to go beg on the street corner to be able to buy it.

Ya I wasn’t certain how the effect works in post. It’s not exactly possible to replicate it righ? Because the effect is just a 2d effect in post and when used on camera is it 3d? Not sure if this is right or wrong?

Thanks for the reminder about tilt-swing/tilt-shift adapters.  Nice video!
 
The "miniature" gag is what most associate with these adapters, but I prefer the look when tilt-swing is used subtly for effect and to direct viewers' attention.
 
A big problem that prevents the use of such adapters is that camera manufacturers unnecessarily commit their cameras to EF and PL mounts, instead of utilizing shallower mounts.
 
Trying to duplicate the tilt-swing effect in post only works when the camera is locked down and when the objects in the frame are grouped in an orderly fashion from front-to-back.

Hello everyone.. a couple of weeks ago the NOMO Films team was in Guatemala to film a fictional short and we wanted to show you how it was being made. We shot BTS for the whole shoot and this is the first episode. I hope you like it and let me know if you have any questions!

Thenks so much!
In terms of matching the cameras, the only difficult part is between the S1 and the Sony cams and we have been tweaking the profiles a little each shoot so we can get closer and closer. Mostly the difference between both images is that the S1 image is much more saturated and sharp so I usually blur it and desaturate and match colour in post. It’s not that bad in the end and I have gotten used to it. Plus the S1 image can be pushed around a lot.
As for the mavic filters, I believe we use polar pros, but I’d have to check.

Thanks Kye, glad to hear you are getting something out of it. You are right, everyone shoots so differently and it's really interesting to see different ways of doing things! I hope more eyes get on this so we can make more. It's so much work haha....

Great stuff.
It's really useful to see how other people work.  You're absolutely nailing it with these videos.  Well done!!

Congrats guys! Very important project.
How are you going to match all those different cameras? Do you have a specific workflow for that?
What filters do you use on your Mavic?
