I have a series of short reels and a larger campaign video that are already locked for edit and now need a skilled colorist to bring them to life. This is strictly film/video work—no still photography or illustration—so I want someone comfortable working in DaVinci Resolve from start to finish. The goal is to enhance the overall mood and tone: richer skin tones, bolder highlights, and a cohesive palette that ties every cut together without feeling over-processed. Footage was shot in LOG on a mix of cameras (mainly Sony and Blackmagic), so you should be confident matching different sources and managing any small exposure variations that remain. What I will provide: • Final locked picture in ProRes and the corresponding XML/EDL • A brief creative reference deck outlining the desired look and feel • Any LUTs already used in the offline edit What I expect back: • A graded master in 4K ProRes HQ • A clean pass of the grade as a DaVinci Resolve project file (.drp) so I can revisit it later • Optional: a quick before/after screener for approval Turnaround is flexible but ideally within one week once you receive all media. If you have a reel that showcases dramatic or branded work with strong, mood-driven color, please share it along with a short note about your Resolve workflow.

Hi, Establishing a cohesive cinematic look across mixed LOG footage requires precise CST (Color Space Transform) management, controlled node structures, and professional shot-matching techniques. I specialize in professional color grading and video post-production within DaVinci Resolve, making me the perfect fit to bring your campaign video and short reels to life. I understand how to achieve a rich, polished cinematic aesthetic without making the footage feel over-processed. Here is my exact DaVinci Resolve workflow for your project: LOG Matching & Color Management: I will map and convert your mixed Sony S-Log and Blackmagic Film LOG clips into a unified working color space, balancing exposure variations seamlessly between different camera sensors. Tone & Mood Grading: Building dynamic, mood-driven look layers to deliver richer skin tones, controlled and bolder highlights, and a tight, cohesive color palette that aligns with your reference deck. Professional Deliverables: Returning a clean 4K ProRes HQ graded master, a fully organized DaVinci Resolve project file (.drp) with structured node trees, and a quick before/after screener for your final approval. I can easily deliver the entire package within your one-week turnaround target. Let’s connect in the chat, review your creative reference deck, and get started on the XML timeline import! Best regards, Shaurya

Hello, I’ll focus on enhancing the mood and tone of your footage through precise color grading. My plan is to bring out richer skin tones, bolder highlights, and create a cohesive palette across all your reels and the larger campaign video. I approach this by analyzing each clip, ensuring that the colors not only match but also complement the story you want to tell. This way, every transition feels seamless and intentional, without any over-processing. In a recent project, I worked with a client who had a mix of footage from different cameras. By carefully grading each shot, I managed to create a unified look that elevated their entire campaign, resulting in a final product that received praise for its visual consistency. What’s the one result that would make you say this was worth it? Maan

Mixed camera footage from Sony and Blackmagic in LOG only grades cohesively when the match happens before the mood work starts, otherwise every cut fights the last one. We color grade multi-camera LOG footage in DaVinci Resolve, building a cohesive mood-driven look across reels and campaign video. Matching Sony and Blackmagic sources for consistent exposure, then building richer skin tones and bolder highlights into a unified palette that doesn't feel over-processed, is exactly the kind of technical and creative balance we're comfortable delivering. We work directly from your ProRes lock, XML, and creative reference deck, and we don't just say we deliver cohesive grades, we have 75+ 5-star reviews on similar projects and rank in the top 1% among 75 million users! Happy to share mood-driven work and talk through our Resolve workflow. Regards, Jody.

Saw your project—matching Sony S-Log and Blackmagic LOG so they don't look like two different cameras is my bread and butter. Here is exactly how we get this done fast and pain-free: You send the XML + ProRes + your look deck. I normalize and unify both camera color spaces in DaVinci Resolve Studio using a clean CST node architecture (fixing exposure drift, locking down natural skin tones, and rolling off the highlights smoothly). I build the hero grade based on your reference deck and send you a before/after screener within 72 hours. Once you're stoked on the look, I cascade it across all the reels, match every angle, and hand you back: 4K ProRes HQ masters The clean, fully labeled .drp project file
