Color Grading on Mac for free

  • What Color Finesse is great for are extremely powerful and flexible primary corrections. What it suck at is secondaries and qualifications (granted all of that is done easily enough in the After Effects itself) and the rendering speed. Resolve is unbelievable with it's power windows and qualification controls and the speed of rendering (if you are on a mac made in a last two years at least) is crazy fast!
    One could speculate however that the Color Finesse days are numbered as a part of After Effects distribution, now that Adobe owns Iridas...
  • Good news, thanks.

    @stefanos - I'm just starting playing around with Color Finesse 3. Seems pretty good - hard to find tutorials though (more advanced).
  • Resolve is great. Don't forget Color Finesse 3 though that's free with AE which is incredibly powerful (light years better than stuff like colorista) yet incredibly underrated. I look forward to Resolve for PC to do some juicy comparisons and see which is best.
  • That is super super color grading software for free. This thing use to cost in the tens of thousand two years ago. It is still limited to 1 gpu and HD rez and some other functionality like noise reduction and 3D but the rest is their. So very very powerful tool for grading. The windows version is coming at the start (think January) next year so no problem here. With the windows version you will be able to put more powerful gpu.
