What started as the best-kept colorist secret has now spread around the colorist community like wildfire. A fixed node tree in Davinci Resolve is the way to go in order to gain speed and efficiency while maintaining consistency and image quality. In this seminar, you will learn what is fixed node tree all about and how to design your own.
About
We tried to trace the Idea of fixed node tree design and based on our research, it probably comes from German colorist Utzi who is working for Arri. The story goes that Walter Volpatto, an Italian colorist based in Hollywood, discussed this idea with Utzi, deployed it in his workflow and generously shared it with the Colorist community at the Colorist Meetup Event in Los Angeles back in 2019. The idea and concept of fixed node trees have spread like wildfire throughout the colorist world.
There is no surprise this has happened as using a fixed node tree makes sense from many points of view, and this seminar will discuss all of those reasons in detail. We will learn how to design your own tree structure, its rules, various processing order, as well as dos and don’ts. Finally, we will learn how to benefit from new design node trees and deploy them successfully in production.
