Notes:
I've shown this technique on a number of different videos, but I figured it deserved it's own video. It also gives me a good chance to outline some of the differences between primary and log controls. I should also mention that this process can be helped by applying a grade in a way that balances the shadows and you can see it in your waveform. For example getting a teal look by using curves and you lower the bottom of the red and bump the bottom of the blue really helps balance out your shadows but I didn't want to cram too much info into one video.

So I usually record at Q5 compression ratio in black magic raw which can range from 12:1 to 8:1 as a ratio. Though this episode I accidentally recorded at a 3:1 compression ratio. So what was normally a 40GB video file turned into a 180GB video file. The video is uploading as a write this but I'f be really surprised if there was any noticeable improvement. Given Youtube's compression I'd imagine there'd be no telling the difference however it may have graded a bit nicer. Just thought some of yall would get a kick out of that.

There's actually no real references for today's video. Though I recommend just opening up the DaVinci Resolve manual that can be accessed via the help tab of Resolve. It's where I've learned the vast majority of everything I know about Resolve.
