In today's tutorial I'm breaking down my color workflow in DaVinci Resolve 16 for these tutorial videos. Everything I show today can be done in the free version of DaVinci Resolve 16.

Notes:
So here's the workflow I use for all of these videos. For narrative work I typically use color management to get to a specific color space and work from there correct then adjust to taste. For these videos however it's only for streaming on Youtube so I run things kinda quick and dirty.

Now to peel back the curtian a bit I've been traveling for the past week and these past 3 videos were made in a batch. If everything goes according to plan I'll have a video made during my travels come out on Monday (still have to shoot and edit it) but I'm gonna miss Thursday's video. Hopefully I'll be back on schedule by the Monday after. Thanks for understanding.
