richg101 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 This stands out to me as one of the best tutorials. what he shows in this video provides the basis for just about anything else you;d want to do as far as grading is concerned.

Cinegain Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 I've found this very useful when I stumbled upon it one time... He's got his info from Alexis van Hurkman, author of the Color Correction Handbook and the Color Correction Look Book: http://www.amazon.com/Alexis-Van-Hurkman/e/B001IODHRA/ .

Thank you guys! I'm searching some lessons to learn how to achieve "cinematic" look without scarifying the skin tones. Things like this shot from Mission Impossible. I ask you, because each and every time I try to make the white wall "teal" also the rest of the shot become bluish, even if I "preserv" the skin tones with masks etc... I tried LUTs, looks... everything... but the only way I can make it work is actually having not white wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
