Live Call – Coding DCTLs Wrap Up Discussion with Cullen Kelly

Start: Introduction and Welcome

1:36 – Color-coding the overlay created in Part 9 of this series

5:27 – Is it possible to create custom Hue vs. and Sat vs. curves?

9:04 – Has Cullen cracked the formula that Resolve uses for its Sat vs. and Lum vs. curves?

10:25 – Cullen talks about the DCTL he’s coded to calculate Hue vs Sat in the HSV color model for a form of subtractive color

11:09 – The opportunities generated by coding your own DCTLs

13:15 – Discussion about color-aware keying tools in Resolve 17

14:56 – Building your own ‘color space aware’ tools: Thoughts and approaches

19:40 – Can you use black as a reference point to create a ‘color space aware’ DCTL?

20:44 – Exploring the idea of working with Resolve Color Management but doing all the color management in the node tree.

22:40 – Understanding and moving beyond a 3×3 color matrix

25:03 – Does it make sense to create a DCTL for mapping SDR to HDR at the timeline level?

26:06 – How to select a range of pixel values and then change them to a specific color?

30:26 – Can a DCTL address external hardware? What are its limitations?

32:20 – You learned more than you think you did in this series. This is Cullen’s live demo of using an ARRI white paper to build your own Log-C conversion.

43:27 – Why you may want to replace Resolve’s built-in image transforms with your own DCTL.

45:40 – Cullen is taught a huge timesaving trick while coding!
