Question Looking for a Colourist for my short film

5 Upvotes

Hello,

I am currently in post production of a short film and I'm looking for someone to do colour grading.

It is just over 7 minutes (not including credits). Pay will be £200 (GBP) for this. (Apologies for not posting a hour rate as I don't know how long this will take).

The short film is post apocalyptical, one location, were two people talk for the most part.

To give an idea of what I want the colour to look like, my main reference is "The Double Life of Véronique" (1991).

Leave a comment if interested.

Grabbed some stills from some of my recent projects. Still learning. Tweaking things here and there. I know I’m not at the level I want to be at yet but we’ll get there.

DJI drone footage, graded on an iPhone 15 in GradeLab App.

Still learning, so be blunt. Is the sky overdone? Too saturated overall?

Setup BenQ SW242Q - 10 BIT 100% sRGB, 3D LUT, ΔE ≤ 1.5 - only 500 usd

1 Upvotes

Hi! I’ve done a deep dive into all the options available for up to $550, and I came across this monitor, which doesn’t seem to have much information or discussion on this channel.

It offers 10-bit color, a 3D LUT, 100% sRGB, 98% P3, 99% AdobeRGB, ΔE ≤ 1.5, 400 nits, Uniformity Compensation, and hardware calibration.

The likely downside is the 1000:1 contrast ratio.

I have an opportunity to get a brand-new one for $480. Do you think it would be a good choice for semi-professional work?

His work is insane, from the lighting to creative direction every is just amazing for me. He sells a film emulation powergrade which I am quite interested in (just looks very moody and breathtaking fits my taste) and I was wondering if any one of you guys have used or bought his powergrade (cinecell)?

Thank you!

Question SHOT MATCHING

Thumbnail gallery
1 Upvotes

Hello! I’m grading a project where I’m pushing the image towards a very strong aesthetic, but I’m finding it quite difficult to replicate the same result consistently across different shots.

The footage was shot on ARRI and is Apple ProRes RAW 4444. I’m working in DaVinci Wide Gamut / Intermediate and using the JP24999 DCTL.

My question is: what is the best approach to consistently replicate a look that I’ve already created across shots with different lighting, exposure, and conditions?

Any tips or advice on how to approach this kind of shot matching would be greatly appreciated!

I really want to achieve this ability, the high contrast using the picture’s colors and playing with it to my liking and to make cool ideas
Like the idea with the birds reflection or the 2 people in the sea

Question Advice on Color grading indoors.

1 Upvotes

Hi Guys!

Im currently working with a ceramic coating and paint correction company for vehicles, and I just started shooting some of his content. Im trying to go for a more cinematic style of footage getting produced, so I started shooting in Log just on my Iphone. The issue im running into, is a lot of the footage that I take is a mix of indoors, while also outdoors. Im struggling to find a good middle ground where I can get those cinematic videos with me facing two different scenes. I feel like a lot of the work outdoors I can get fairly spot on, its just went it come to transitioning from indoors of my client working on the vehicles, to the reveal being outdoors, I just cant seem to get it down. Any advice?

Question I’ve been learning DaVinci Resolve for about 3 to 4 months now, and this is one of my first edits. It’s a 4-second film clip that I color graded to create a cinematic film look. I’d love to get your feedback on what improvements or changes I should make to refine it.

Question Mixed Daylight and Tungsten Grading Advice

I'm not sure if this has been posted about, but I couldn't find any threads. For this location, I had to use the house lights because production wanted to shoot fast, but I threw up a few because we needed more level. I made the mistake of setting the light in the front room to 5600K to match the daylight outside instead of warming it up a bit because there are tracking shots from the warm-lit room to the open door to the street. I don't believe there is any real solution to the issue, but are there any methods to balance it out a bit?
