I can see some confusion in the comment section over some slips of the tounge so I thought I'd try clarify. Let me start by saying this is not a criticism of Spencer, quite the opposite as I'm a fan of his work and what he's adding to the community. It is so easy as a KZitemr to accidently sligtly mis-speak and cause confusion by accident, espeially when talking about filmmaking where there are so many abbreviations, acronymes and short hand lingo etc. @02:00 there is a mix up between standard definition/high definition (meaning resolution) and standard dynamic range and high dynamic range (meaning...dynamic range i.e. peak brightness) in other words SD/HD was mixed up with SDR/HDR. Note: When looking at the BT.709 and BT.2020 reccomendations there are specs for resolution so resolution does indeed tie into it. The next thing that I've seen causing confusion is Spenser saying 400 and 500 IRE and so on. He means 40 and 50 and so on. In resolve by default the histogram and waveform has markers of 0-1023. This is based on a bit depth of 10 bits per channel. 2^10=1024. 0-1023 is 1024 increments. 0 = 0 IRE and 1023 = 100 IRE and for all intensive purposes it scales to IRE at a ratio of 1:10 so its very easy to convert in your head. That said with resolve 17 you can change the scale to read IRE if you like. Note those numbers are based on SDR, standard dynamic range with peak brightness of 100NITS or IRE Hope that clear things up for some of you and thank you again to Spencer for the continued great work! Happy creating everyone!

Aha, a video about this! Very nice, yeah this is basically the big secret; Hollywood exposures/color grades are much much "lower" than most people typically go for. Skin tones peaking at 50, 40 or even 30 IRE. The thing is, movies are meant to be watched in a theater... on a bright screen... in the dark. Keeping most of your image in the lower end of exposure looks very natural and pleasing in that setting. Additionally, it gives you room to expose things that "glow" (like lamps, skies, fire, etc.) much higher around 70, 80, 90 IRE in the same frame, which again looks very natural and realistic. It makes perfect sense that sources of light in-frame should appear much brighter on screen than your actor's skin. I think we learn at first to avoid exposing things too dark because you can ruin footage that way, which is where things like eye lights and fill lights have to be carefully dialed in to preserve crucial details, and things like practical lights, windows etc. come in to add pleasing "pools of light" to the frame. It's very hard to get Hollywood exposures with run & gun shooting, because lighting and composition often have to be carefully dialed in to get this look without things feeling off. Contrast ratios are too high in real life a lot of the time too, and exposing skin dark can cause total detail loss in a lot of the frame without lighting. Practicing with lighting and grading shots privately can help you understand how to find good, natural spots that fulfill a lot of lighting needs already in real locations. This can really help you early on when you don’t have a lot of lighting equipment or even a way to set it up at your locations. Great video!

Essentially. That’s a very good summary. We often forget that movies are shot in sets and everything is dialed in to create a desired look. Well before the final edit, the director already has set the composition, setting, lighting, etc. to create that cinematic look. The edit is the cherry on top. Most of us do it backwards, and often neglect composition and setting and try to bring it all together in post. At that point, it’s already a little too late.

@@aelderdonian I was speaking to a professional DIT the other day and asked them this very question, about how cinematographers expose the camera. Do they ETTR or do they expose for the look? He told me that a lot of DPs will expose really low because they don't want the colourist to mess anything up, it's essentially their way of protecting the look they have lit for. Some others may ETTR to get as much data in the sensor as possible. If you look at HDR content and how an image is exposed, you'll notice in professional work that between the range of say 1000 nits, they don't often go above 700. As this is also then outputted for normal SDR screens, things are also exposed pretty low with skin tones ranging between 30 to 50 ire (unlike conventional 70 ire). Bring some stills into resolve from any commercial or film and check how low the scopes are! Hope this helped! In terms of film and digital, I thinks it's come to a point in technology where you can ETTR on digital and bring everything down to get just as good results. But most DPs stick to exposing for the look in camera anyways. They'd rather know what the final image will look like straight away.

@@aelderdonian Not really. It very much depends on the look you’re going for. If you want something natural you’d be good off exposing a tiny bit higher. Rate Kodak 5219 500T at 400 ASA for example. 320 would be a little more pop in the colors and a little less contrast on the neg. You’d also be making sure your shadows will have enough information for some pushing in the DI. Rate it one stop over at 250 to 200 and you’ll get more of the bright warm film look. Anything over that and you go into the pastel look territory. Rate 500T at box speed and you’d get some more contrast and grain but it’s still fairly neutral. You’d have to watch you shadows a bit more tho. Rate it at 1000 and you loose the deep shadows. Saturation will be lower and contrast much more moody. Most people rate it at 320 since it’s hard to loose the highlights in any significant way on film like that.

Exposure is relative. Middle Grey can be wherever you want it to be. Get an Ansel Adams book and Learn the zone system and put your brightest part of your image at zone 7 or 8 instead of zone 10 so they don’t blow out. Make sure this doesn’t crush your blacks too much or take away too much shadow detail. If you’re able to control your environment this is way easier. That shot from Her is on a sound stage and those windows are green screen.

Hi Spenser ^^ Hope you're doing well, I'm interested in that LUT ^^ Just idea: a grading course could be a good extension of your lighting course ^^

You are on the perfect track for making something big and controlling all that contrast the right way. But maybe you should spend some more time with a decent ACES Worflow in DR to save yourself some time. I know that there is always a big discussion as soon as someone is talking about ACES but especially with the modern Cameras you just Expose +2/3 and pull down the exposure in ACES after the IDT 1 stop and lift the shadows again. Feels pretty similar and you end up having much much less work in DR.

I think this film, THe Social Network, is akin to the retelling of Citizen Kane--both good, great films. I am not keen on getting LUTS. Prefer to create one so one knows exactly what it is for and how it functions.

The ETTR exposing technique has its merits but I have talked on this subject with a colorist that has worked with Roger Deakins and I asked him about exposure on set and the use of LUTS and he told me they were based at 18% grey and not ETTR. Seems to me that the lighting then specifies the look - i.e. highlights and shadows. But your observations may be more for getting that look with a lower end camera and device capture. That is just a hunch. We also have to consider that movies are usually graded for projection and sometimes the blu-rays or digital offerings are different than how the movie was shot. I have even some that the colorists have said that that process ruined the grade. ( rare occasion ). I think that one or two stops even would be clean and for a lot of people won't push their limit into a knee or clip highlights. Might be worth testing to see if the results match. Interesting.

ETTR depends on the camera. The big question is if they have an ACES workflow or not.

Curious as to why you kept showing a Histogram and not a Waveform monitor to talk about the IRE of the images you were talking about?

Always loved how your approach on those topics !! I've used your ROGER+THAT lut in the past. Depending on the subject of the "film", it can give pretty awesome results on a "creative standpoint". Keep it up ! Cheers !

I am half way through the video and i just had the same question. I actually took a clip of a music video and found the luma scope to lying under 60 70 ire which was shocking. I guess now i can see what to do to get similar results. Also finally someone who has made a video on what i wanted to know for long time

Thanks I always thought you need skin tones in the 50-60 IRE range in the final image. But now Im more confident going dark ;) Would you recommend the same for youtube videos?

I still recommend exposing your skin around there. Just bring down the image later in post.
