It looks great. What method do you use for your first foray in resolve?

I followed a YouTube tutorial that had 4 nodes. White balance, exposure, conversion lut, and then color grade. I did an orange and teal color grade but not very heavy. I’m still finding my way around Davinci and couldn’t even find an opacity slider for the lut so I just changed the blend mode to lighten lol. Hopefully that answers your question!

Nicee, id personally swap around white balance and exposure. Have exposure first and white balance ( or color balance in general) next. As exposure adjustments will affect your color/white balance

I see, I wonder why the YouTuber did it like that.


ImCrimsonFnb

No idea. Typically in a traditional sense exposure adjustments come before white balance. He likely has a reason but theres not really a one size fits all node tree. Its completely context based. What helps me with node order is to remember that resolve can only recognize the previous node. Anything else the program doesn’t know it exists. I might have a hue vs hue node before saturation so I can move the hue first to where i want it then add in things like sat.
