Film Grain/Layer Node
Let me start out by saying, I understand Resolve is a colour corrector, not a compositor. I am curious though if there is any way of adding film grain to shots. I can see the mixing of different formats causing one to need to emulate the look of one format onto another.
Also, is there anyway of using a layer node to perform any kind of screen, or additive blending. I’m playing with Bleach looks, and usually do some blending for my look. I’ve played with the lum settings, and gotten a pretty good bleach, but options are always nice.

I haven’t tried it yet, but with all the node options available, I think you could “correct in” basic grain using a matte created in After Effects or the compositing/VFX application of your choice.

Have you tried this concept out yet? I think I might try that out this weekend with some spare (and overly clean) looking red footage.

Something for me to work on tonight…if i can tear myself away from the start of the hockey season.

Haven’t had time yet. If you get a chance to try it out, let me know how it goes. I was thinking of creating a grayscale matte with After Effects.

I created a 2k comp in After Effects of black with grain on it, and removed all colour. Then output it as a dpx sequence.
In resolve, i brought it in as a matte.
I was able to get the grain to superimpose over the footage, but found it quite difficult to control the level of grain. Might work in a pinch, but needs more experimenting to get it to be natural.
Still wish there was some sort of transfer mode capability.

Maybe layer nodes would help here as the position relative to other layers should adjust the intensity. Grain is also one thing that my clients ask if it can be done.

Did you tweak any of the advanced matte settings?

I’m not really sure where the “advanced Matte” settings are?

Once you add the matte you can access input/output controls for it along with a couple other things. That should give you a bit more control over the grain intensity.

Bad idea.
Get something like Arri Relativity.
