The Offset Podcast EP027: Where Do DCTLs & OFX Fit Into A Grading Workflow?
About this episode
The built-in tools in grading applications like DaVinci Resolve are immensely powerful, but sometimes, you need a tool that goes further—or, at the very least, approaches a task in a slightly different way.
In this installment of The OffSet Podcast, we're exploring how power grades, DCTLs, and OFX fit into a grading workflow.
Specific topics we discuss in this episode include:
- Defining Powergrades, DCTL & OFX
- The benefits of extending the toolset without cluttering the user interface
- Integrating DCTLS and OFX into fix node tree structures
- The DCTL ecosystem as R&D for Blackmagic Design
- Keeping DCTLs & OFX in sync, up to date, and on multiple systems and locations
- Exploring how to NOT paint yourself into a corner with DCTLs & OFX
- How DCTLS and OFX require a lot of steps and clicks for use
- There could be better interface & panel integration
- Some of our favorite DCTLs and OFX
