Color grading is like cooking.
When the workspace is clean and simple, everything flows better.
You save time, stay inspired, and still get a polished cinematic result.
That’s the idea behind CineDream.
Huge thanks to @realso.officiel for putting this together and capturing the concept so well.

The power of color space conversion.
(Edited with CineDream, link in bio)
If there’s one thing that makes a big difference in images and gives them the allure of film, it’s color conversion.
Whether you edit in Premiere, FCP or DaVinci the proper conversion from log is paramount.
Today is revealed how @gigigardella (lead colorist on #cinedream) goes about doing this using the built-in ACES.
i.e. the color pipeline used in Hollywood workflows.
Let me know which frame you like the best.

You get the grade almost right… then start chasing it with more tweaks. That cycle ends when you start in the right order.
• CST
• Balance
• Look
That’s when it locks. CineDream used.
I used to think a new LUT would solve everything.
But LUTs only provide a look, not a starting point.
Once I ditched the LUT hunt and adopted a solid workflow everything fell into place.
I established a solid color pipeline. I correct the essentials and then refine the look.
That's how you get consistent results, not with a one-trick LUT.
Now I anchor everything to skin.
Ever finish a grade and still feel unsure?
I used to live there.
False color to land exposure in the grey / green / pink range.
Skin tone indicator until skin sits mostly on yellow.
Then I choose the look that feels right.
Just a touch of film effects to separate it from the pack.
That’s the structure.
Not cheating.
Intention.
Stop worshiping node trees. They’re confusion dressed up as expertise.
Cinematic imagery comes from structure: start with the camera’s color space transform, balance the shot, then add the look.
