To be honest, the 99% cleaness of this shot comes from scenography.

[louisholding]

been waiting on a clean white tutorial and this really hits it! ty man

[derhustler]

Would have loved to see a second different setting. The set and colors here are already nearly white/clean.

[myticslightning]

I would love to have it, it looks so cool ! I also wanted to thank you for all of us beginners that are learning a lot thought your videos ❤

[benopoku]

This is my first time actually watching you use the tools on an edit and I have to say, I was quite impressed with qt color compressor. It’s very powerful. Especially using the curve for the cutoff point. That was the sell for me. Keep up the good work brother. I will be looking into testing some of these out and then buying them. Have a good one.

How can i download the fotage for practice

[Marbforest]

I just want to say thank you for your Toolkit it is changed everything!

[SIRIUS_SML]

Quick question, how is your project working space setup, are you working in Aces or DWG? before doing the idt and odt?

[gwmaniac]

Would love to see a full live stream style 3 hour start to finish color grading video!

[DaniSlaz]

I think next Id like to see color grading for cars/suvs/trucks in an outdoor setting. This can help people that make advertisements/promos for automotive dealerships!

[DCFilmWorkshop]

The clean white look does the magic all the time #moneymaker😅. Thank you Qazi❤you’re the best

[Vredestudios]

your toolkit demo doesn't download. It just stop half way, it's the same with all the files. tried it a couple of times. Not working.

[igalbensabatlevi]

i like doing my exposure and balance in parallel nodes rather then both on same node so i can see them seperately when i turn them on and off...is it okay or is there sth wrong with it that idk?

[movie-trailer]

Wagaz, show me how to create a black and white look correctly. This is one of the most difficult to control colors when achieving good results. How do I navigate Waveform and what tools should I use to get a balance between contrast and pure colors?

[mauriciomaezakacominato]

do WB using the offset tool or do it using temp/tint?

[mackanmaxen]

Great video as usual.

I tested used Temp/Tint in linear instead of using Offset and too me it was easier to keep the luminance and saturation intact.

But even though Temp/Tint in linear was definitely more Global than Temp/Tint in non-linear i still felt it was less so than with Offset.

A bit curious what you think are the real pros of Balancing with Temp/Tint in Linear instead of Offset.

[xodius]

Hi Qazi, but what's the project settings?

[hudaal.]

The setting in the library doesn’t show for me

[Footube]

can you make a tutorial on qazi's toolkit ?
the whole thing

[Waynemacable]

i like your videos but it would have been nice if you drop project files to follow along.
