The course updates to Resolve version 17 are largely complete. further updates and re-recorded lectures will be added on a regular basis.
Color grading still enjoys an odd, almost mystical status among some filmmakers. Well, there’ no magic (Blackmagic doesn’t count) here, just hard graft and know-how. This course will take you from a standing start, right the way through to high-end and professional color grading using the excellent Da vinci Resolve. The training material I’m providing comes from real-world projects where I was paid to provide my labor. I’m gong to take you through how I approached each and every one of these projects to achieve professional, high-end results.
I’m now a Blackmagic Design certified trainer in Da Vinci Resolve and I’ve been color grading professionally for over six years and in that time I’ve produced work for brands such as Unilever, Greggs Bakery, TNT Logistics, Joules (a UK clothing line), the NHS, the BBC and Virgin Airlines. It doesn’t stop there either. I’ve delivered drama and factual work for broadcast and web as well as feature films for international distribution.
I’m bringing the benefit of my experience to this course because I know what it’s like to have no-one to teach you. When I started to grade on my film course back in university, there were no tutors who could teach the grade at all. I wound up spending long nights in the grading suite (some winter days I actually missed the sun completely) teaching myself to use Resolve from scratch. It paid off as I wound up delivering grading work for the BBC wildlife unit whilst still studying at university! But why was it like that? I still believe I’d be a lot better now if I’d had the right training earlier, all the harder to iron out bad habits when there’s no-one around to call you out!
So this course is my attempt to provide that support and that training to as many people as possible, all for the price of a pizza (a heavily discounted pizza if it’s a large one). If you want to learn how to finish your film projects to a higher standard then come along as we cover Da Vinci Resolve in Depth in this course!
This course is now in a near-finished state. I have plans for one additional bonus module on HDR grading in the future, but otherwise I will be revisiting all the lectures here as new versions of Resolve are released.
Who this course is for:
- Anyone who wants to take their film projects to the next level through color grading and high-end finishing
- Anyone who needs to know the workflow of the grade in post production using the industry’s most popular solution

Bazı konular gereksiz yere uzatılmış olsa da genel olarak bütün tuşların ne işe yaradığını anlıyorsunuz.

This has been by far the most comprehensive and well structured course so far! There is brilliant attention to detail. The course files are great. Very happy with this purchase.

Very, very good. The only thing that would be useful is going a bit slower when doing some shortcuts. If we learned them 5 lectures ago, they are not internalized yet, so good to restate the process. For example, “We learned in lesson X that we can paste the colour onto the image. Once again, use the middle mouse button to do this.” or something to that effect. I’ve found myself looking through the Q&As for several of these small things.
Otherwise, very, very good.

This is probably one of the best tutorials on Resolve on Udemy. On a serious note this is a very big deep dive into the inner workings of Resolve but even more so, it is more valuable for watching the tutor practise his colour grading techniques, which in turn you follow along with. To get the benefit you need to watch the videos particularly his process on first and second passes. You don’t always need to grade everyshot, but I find it very helpful to do so if you want to retain the knowledge and techniques. Thank you for making this.

Perfect course for beginners who are looking for deep & advanced understanding of color & color grading!

A 30 hour comprehensive course with everything you need to know to transform from an absolute beginner to someone who can call themselves a colorist. All you need is time, dedication, a decent computer and this course. Matthew is a true professional and an amazing teacher who is already giving more than what he gets from sharing his knowledge.
Mark Nutter –
This is excellent material, well-paced and informative, with good use of supplemental materials.
Michael Lees –
Halfway through and have to say this is one of the best courses I’ve taken. Great demo material, love using the real world projects, and very clearly and thoroughly explained.

Wow… :’))
Thank you so much Matthew for the amount of work and detail you put into this course. It is needed. Video work is complex and the more you know, and the more you practice, the better your product. Every freelance and professional editor/grader needs to do this. Yes, it is long, but it needs to be long. And once you are done, do it again.
