I’ve always wanted to learn color grading in DaVinci Resolve, but as a lifelong Adobe Premiere editor, switching software felt intimidating and time-consuming. So I challenged myself to learn color grading from scratch in just one week. Here’s what happened when I tried to become a colorist in 7 days.

About me:
I'm Kent Lamm and I've been making short films for over 20 years, starting at age 11. I directed my first feature film, Bad is Bad, in 2010. Made for only $6,000, the film went on to reach over 7 million views and garner critical acclaim. More recently, my short film, Will "The Machine", screened and won awards at film festivals around the world. Released online in 2019, it reached over 3 million views. As an editor, I’ve done work for clients such as Apple, Netflix, and Beats by Dre.
