The class mixes the operational side of Resolve with some practical real world training on workflows, basic color theory, grading approaches, and techniques. The class is ICA certified with all students getting a certificate upon completion.
Ideal for current Resolve Colorists and assistant operators looking to learn advanced techniques using the V8 software and DaVinci Resolve control surface, ICA 201: Advanced Colorist Strategies with DaVinci Resolve on January 26 - 27, 2012, takes a deeper look into the DaVinci Resolve workflow. Students are encouraged to bring their own material so Warren and the other students can grade and discuss the different formats and challenges they present.
Our one-day workshop Warren's Looks with Resolve on January 28, 2012, will give students great insight into how famous looks and styles are created. This is a general class so is not grading system independent so all welcome. We will learn how to create the traditional “Looks” but will also work on how to make new “Looks” to suit your workflow even if you don’t have million dollar budgets. Students are encouraged to bring their own footage.

DaVinci Resolve has the power of a true real time performance solution so handles complex color grades even when using dozens of primaries, secondaries, Power Windows™, multi point tracking, blurs, and more. DaVinci Resolve provides incredible performance in a low cost solution can then easily upgrade by adding extra GPU’s for supercomputer power to handle 4K resolutions, stereoscopic 3D and real time grading direct from raw camera files such as ARRI raw and RED raw R3D files can be handled with ease.
