Sergey Macarescu February 9, 2018 Share February 9, 2018 Hi, I just started grading a few months ago. I was a TV engineer for more then ten years and an amateur photographer. I decided to try something new. Had several commercial projects and decided to make a reel. Most of the material is Alexa XT or mini, some are DSLR footage shot by me. I'd love to know what you think or maybe some tips or critiques. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary Knoop February 9, 2018 Share February 9, 2018 I think it is better to have a very limited number of before and after views provided the before view shows the result after the technical delog. What is really important for a before and after view is what you do with the image after you have done a delog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You got a point. I initially thought to apply a rec709 lut for the "before" footage. But in some cases it seems unfair to the alexa, as the rec footage is clipped in some high dynamic range scenes. It's best seen on the horses. Here's the reel with the rec709 lut applied to the alexa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
