Ok these little upgrades are nice and all, but here we are on version 10 and still no Facebook support? WTF!!
I mean how can you call yourself “professional” software without deep social media hooks! I mean how cool would it be, to be able to have a tweet go out each time I add a node or power window?
That’s the kind of forward thinking that gets lost with wasting time adding all these “features” that people “use”, to “make art and money”.
Re-foucus! Jeez, there’s not even an iPhone app! Other software manufacturers seem to get it, why not you?

I’m trying out some new ideas using a layer node in the subtractive mode, trying to just get an image to a single RGB channel of another node, but it’s exploding and getting messy quickly 🙂

Thanks for the interest guys, I created this tutorial, and any suggestions or constructive criticisms to improve it are welcome.
Mostly it was an attempt to replicate an analog process digitally, using the same theories. Mike brings up an interesting point about the parallel node not allowing you to send data to certain channels only. But it was the closest thing I could find in resolve to physically smashing bits together.
I’m thinking of adding a bit at the end about adding to the look by crushing the blacks a little bit, adding a little cyan to the shadows, increasing the contrast, but leaving the highlights nice and wide and maybe adding a little halation to them. But these are all subjective choices and will change with the footage. The tutorial is more designed to get you to about 80% or so of the final look, and you take yourself the rest of the way.
Thanks!

Thanks Eric!
Right where you said it was. I don’t know why I was looking in the camera RAW section. The option only shows up though when you’re in ACES color space already.

For what it’s worth I ran into this same thing today as well. The outside window in the shot (highlight) had a black splotch that would come in at seemingly random frames.
I noticed that the splotch occurred where two power windows happened to overlap. I adjusted one of the windows to not overlap and the problem disappeared.
I was also using 1080p25 Pro Res 422HQ from an Arri Alexa.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for that. I’ll stop trying to troubleshoot it 🙂
The .mdb drag, and the ALE option are decent workarounds until the AAF functionality is more robust, but I’ve been astounded by the progress this software’s made since version 7 already.

Hi Juan,
Thanks for the help, and love the new podcast BTW!
It may be an AAF thing.
1. Resolve is making the audio files properly, xxx_A1 &xxx_A2
2. When I drag the avid .mdb file directly into the bin, the clips have audio and work properly.
3. When I import the AAF file from Resolve into another bin, the clips and sequence have no audio tracks assigned (i.e. the’re not blank, they’re just not there). Picture works as expectedJB

I believe that the perfect backup for SxS cards is SDHC cards. They’re exactly the right capacity, and are solid state, and relatively inexpensive.
While I’m not aware of any reliable studies on how long SDHC cards will last stored, I do know it will be many times greater than a mechanical hard drive.
