Day 2: 24 Insights in 24 Days New Year Marathon
Building Looks And Finishing A Music Video Shot On The Panasonic GH5
Happy New Year and welcome back to my grading suite!
My favourite thing to talk about here on Mixing Light is real-world jobs that I’ve graded and I have an extra special Insight for you.
We’ll be looking at how I graded this music video for the wonderful Daniel Broadley

This video was shot on the GH5 as a one-take so it gives me a great opportunity to show one of the most common questions I come across:
How do I deal with compressed formats such as the GH5, S1H, A7s etc?
I actually LOVE grading Panasonic footage. Especially from the s1h as it records in 10 bit. In a future Insight you’ll learn how I graded a live concert film shot across 9 cameras that included 3 Alexa’s and 6 GH5s!
In this Insight, we are going to take a look at:
- Building a “Show Look”
- Colour Pipeline And Grade Management in Baselight
- Boost Contrast
- Boost Colour
- Texture Highlight
- Texture Equaliser
- Quickly Adding Dissolves Between Grades
Comments Please!
I’m always extra excited to read comments on these Insights as I can make sure to cover any questions in the next part.
-Dan
