Premiere Pro to Davinci Resolve Color Grading Workflow (EASY!)

The Premiere Pro to Davinci Resolve color grading workflow is a great way to take advantage of both Premiere Pro and Davinci Resolve. For those of you looking to possibly make the switch to Davinci Resolve, this workflow will make it easy to try out Davinci's incredible color grading possibilities, while doing the rest of the work in the NLE that you're most comfortable with. Let's take a look!

Extremely helpful man, I wasn't quite ready to start re learning an entire editing software, but I just wanted to make use of DaVinci color grading prowess, and still maintain premiere Pro, this is beautiful, my work flow from this day on word

[birdspikes]

Just so people know, the import page has changed a bit. Now you just go import > import timeline

I was making the mistake of going import > media from XML and it wasn't working

THANK YOU THANK YOU SAVED MY LIFE AND MY SOUL!! GOD BLESS YOU MUCH!

Great video!! Question tho when I export it back to premiere only a black video shows up. All the audio is fine however

[raulsilvagomez]

Hello! I really appreciate your video. It's helpful for the unitiated in this workflow. I know why your audio clips are doubling in the timeline! (that you mentioned in 6:39). It's because when rendering in DaVinci you are still rendering the audio from Davinci, you just need to uncheck that in the Premiere XML window. I hope this helps! :D

[RobinValvi]

thank you, was searching for this from long long time.

Hi Jay, this video helped me a lot!! Huge Thanks to your effort.

[RealAsliHai]

Thank you so much! I have been so worried about using both the softwares together. Lots of love for you ♥

[navin_bhatt_official]

Hi there, i would appreciate if you could clear my confusion. As Premiere is not able to have the srgb color space, i have no choice but to color grade in davinci as i am free to choose whatever color space to work in. Confusion is when im done color grading in davinci under srgb working space, and i move back to premiere which is a rec 709 color space. How do i resolve this issue in the color shift if it happens when exporting to Youtube as Im aware Premiere will not change to srgb working space. Do correct me if im wrong. Thank you so much

[sanaawright]

what about if you've added effects and have multiple video and audio layers, will that mess up the import in to davinci?

[JGorg]

Are you using a 5 second clip out of Resolve? You move so quickly from exporting out of Resolve back into Premiere, but it's not fast at all when the timeline is longer.

[jackirvine]

can i do this after all of my editing or does it have to be done first? i want to do this with a project i havent graded yet but i dont want any of my edits to be change when switching back to a premiere file. thanks for the video!

[turntotruth_]

So what do you do if you've edited with all sorts of effects but you want to colour grade in davinci?

[SnehithPamarathi]

what if I have multiple timelines in premiere pro and how to get all the timelines from p pro to resolve ?

[JS-pmpd]

Hi,
nice video.
I have a question. After I have done the color grading and export an xml file and open it in premiere, for some reason the colorgrading is not applied to the clips. It looks like before, footage without colorgrading. You maybe know why?

[bluedeskfan]

How about re-scaling and positioning done in Premiere, where the anchor point is off center. Is there a way to bring that over correctly into Resolve?

[jasminekim]

Hey Jay! Thanks for the super helpful video. Just had one question. I always imported my premiere sequence on Davinci and exported the video from there. I was wondering if I import it back to premiere, can I still edit the videos that are graded? So basically, I want to know if the entire clip, and not just the cut/edited part of the clip, is graded. This will really help to make my workflow more efficient.

[dylanrogersfilm]

Great, handy tutorial here:
For some reason on this last export from DaVinci to Premiere an XML file wasn't generated. Considering the whole feature-length film took about 12 hours to export. I wonder if there's a way to just generate that small XML file without starting over with all the clips being exported.

Thanks for this bud....needed this, truly appreciate it
