DaVinci Resolve: Quick White Balance Correction with RGB Curves
Check out Alex Jordan's courses on color grading over at http://filmsimplified.com/?affcode=u1425569190s63
Have you ever forgotten to set your white balance on your camera before shooting some video? Or have you downloaded your footage and realized that the color was a little, or even a lot, off? You can fix it quickly and easily in DaVinci Resolve with the RGB curves. And the same idea applies to any color grading app with RGB curves.
Now don’t let that scare you off. I used to be scared of the RGB curves. They seemed so complex and mysterious. But using this simple method, you can white balance a clip in just a few seconds!
I learned how to do this from Alex over at the new YouTube channel “Learn Color Grading”. Lots of quality tutorials on color grading with DaVinci Resolve, definitely worth your time to have a look and subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/user/LearnColorGrading
