Live Color Grading with the VariCam: Part 2 - Working with Pomfort

Using Pomfort's LiveGrade you can remotely color grade the VariCam 35. In my previous post, I explained how to set up the camera in preparation for the next step - working with the LiveGrade software. The software connects to the camera over a wired or wireless network and can work in a couple of different ways.

You can set the software to use the Default 3D LUT in-camera, which uses the V-709 LUT in the camera, and then applies basic CDL color correction. Or you can set LiveGrade to 'Use 3D LUT from LiveGrade' which allows you to both load a 3D LUT into the camera and adjust the CDL parameters. These two options give you a lot of versatility in how you work with your material in post production. In the video above I show how to set up LiveGrade and the Varicam 35 for remote color grading. Check it out and let us know what you think.

The Panasonic VariCam 35 has been called the "workflow camera," as it offers multiple internal recording formats that can really speed up your workflow. The camera can capture a 4K or HD V-Log master, while at the same time recording both HD and proxy for instant dailies. The VariCam LT has the same function, but with just a 4K or HD master and a proxy recording.

Pomfort has put together a new tutorial on how to use their LiveGrade software in conjunction with DaVinci Resolve to create dailies. LiveGrade can be used with hardware like the BlackMagic HD Link Pro to create LUTs live. I outlined how to apply different LUTs in a previous blog, but Pomfort has put together a very simple way to work with ASC-CDL (Color Decision List) files in DaVinci Resolve.
