This guy really just showed up out of nowhere, dropped 7 of the most ridiculously high quality videos I've ever seen in my life, and just disappeared. Please come back!

Really is amazing how much the color can affect the emotion/story. The intro was incredible!

[BenjaminLucier]

So much for a magician never revealing their secrets!

[nathanmallen]

You should make a whole video where every shot has your camera settings and focal length, or a workflow video for managing all the potential shots you collect

This is hands down one of the best color grading videos I've seen and you make it look so easy. Straightforward, informative, and not overly pushy on selling your LUTs. Super glad I stumbled across your channel!
