I honestly didn’t believe the iPhone 16 ProRes footage could be as good as my Sony FX3… until I tested it myself. And I won’t lie — it impressed me. Two things I noticed though: • The lens easily catches surrounding light, which can reflect into your footage. Use a lens hood or something that shields the edges. • The file sizes are massive. Only shoot in ProRes if you have external storage connected — the quality jump isn’t drastic enough to justify the space sometimes. Huge thanks to the incredible stars on set who brought pure magic to their roles effortlessly. @sharon_odidi is the brain behind all this, because of her love for acting she forced me😂 to create this scene from "Glamour Girls" originally directed by @bunmiajakaiye Muse: @sharon_odidi @wealthinyang #filmmaker #colorgrading #cinematography #nollywood #behindthescenes

Behind-the-scenes of the editing workflow of high-power viral video. I handled the VFX myself. AI tools have made the process faster and more flexible—using Nano Banana to create a 2D world, then giving it a 3D illusion in After Effects, similar to classic matte-painting techniques. The rain effect was created with CC Particles in After Effects, while the glowing-eyes VFX was finished in DaVinci Resolve. #vfx #googleai #nanobanana #aftereffects #colorgrading #davinciresolve

🎬 5 Pro Tips for Grading Start with Accurate White Balance – Set a clean white balance before anything else to ensure your colors stay consistent and true to life throughout the grade. Set Contrast by Pushing Limits, Then Dialing Back – Don’t be afraid to go too far with your contrast initially—then pull it back to a balanced level that retains depth without crushing detail. Aim for a Neutral Black Point – Keep your blacks neutral or close to it; avoid color shifts in your shadows unless it's part of your creative intent. Use Split Toning to Stylize Your Shadows – Adding subtle blues to your shadows using split toning helps create a cool, cinematic mood without overdoing it. Grade with a Reference Image – Always keep a still from your favorite film, show, or commercial as a visual guide. It trains your eye and keeps your color decisions grounded in proven cinematic aesthetics. #cinematography #colorgrading #filmmaker #filmschool #videography #vlog #aesthetic #colorgrading #photography #life #travel #colors #nostalgia #fyp

Another masterpiece directed by @filmboylion I think I learnt sth new from this one, in 2hours with just one video light we were able to create sth good. Sometimes as a cinematography you will face so many uncertainties but just trust in the process, what we do is art and there is not right or wrong, just know your tools. 🎥✂️🎨 by 😎 Backdrop by @zenbackdrops

White balancing done right gives you color separate or a neutral ground/clean black to start your look developed. #davinciresolve #colorist #colourgrading #filmlook #videoediting #cinematography #cinematiclighting #capcut
