If like me you get this dreaded message at midnight when urgently trying to upload your latest masterpiece of cinematic art to YouTube from Compressor, follow the steps below. Update [12.12.2019] Updating to v.4.4.6 made no difference.
I'm much happier with my little arrangement now (save for the audio, which I goofed up!). To my right, I've got the Lishuai LED 100WB-56 and to the left is the Lishuai C-700RSV. Throwing a touch of color on the wall behind me is a Yongnuo YN216 with blue filter. I've still got to find... Continue Reading →
Here are a few of the 35 free LUTs available from RocketStock, along with some of their bokeh effects. I strongly recommended using Paul Leeming's corrective/conversion LUTs and doing color correction as well as secondary correction for skin tones prior to adding creative LUTs. https://youtu.be/QcDxWxVGvH0
A freaking awesome deal! 35 creative LUTs from RocketStock absolutely free. https://youtu.be/Y7ae6jjWQSc
The intro reel was shot using the G85, GH5 and a7 III and footage was graded with Leeming LUT Pro and RocketStock LUTs. Had a lot of fun with the Volumetric and Dust overlays from RocketStock. https://youtu.be/v20zZkXGbNE

It's that time of year when lots of us reflect on what we've done and hope to accomplish in the following year. First, I'll be uploading a video about what it's like trying to purchase equipment in Vietnam, as well as my experiences dealing with customer service over the years, from Sony, Edelkrone and a...

https://youtu.be/ia4q3J1aQDQ Isn't it about time?
A viewer of my YouTube channel commented on the flat lighting of my last video, so I'm uploading another one with a bit more punch. https://youtu.be/ZjAJczRec78
I'd initially purchased the Inferno to shoot and edit HLG HDR video but when I ran into problems using it as an HDR grading monitor (not to mention how heavy the contraption is out in the field) it got stored away in the closet for the longest time. YouTubers Caleb Pike and Gerald Undone reawakened... Continue Reading →
In today's video, we show you how to get the best exposure for skin tones using zebras, false color and the waveform monitor. https://youtu.be/ekjt3yX3zR0
In the second part of this tutorial, we color correct a shot taken with a daylight balanced LED light. The image is already looking pretty good straight out of the camera, and the differences might be too subtle to see given that the images uploaded to WordPress are small and much darker than the originals....

In a previous post, we looked at how to expose for skin tones, and now we deal with how to turn those properly exposed clips into beautiful looking footage through color correction. This is an abbreviated version of Caleb Pike's wonderful tutorial on YouTube in which he explains how to get perfect color every time... Continue Reading →
Here's the second in a series of videos I'm working on, going over everything from finding locations to backing up your projects and where to find free music. Hope you enjoy! https://youtu.be/bV4EIDIkxwU
I'm often asked about my workflow, especially concerning grading, but one aspect that is pretty much overlooked is backing up work while editing. You most certainly don't want to lose hours or even weeks or months of labor due to corrupted files or a malfunctioning drive. Or the edit takes a wrong direction and you'd... Continue Reading →
