Start with Node Structure: We begin by setting up the node structure, a crucial step in DaVinci Resolve. This establishes the foundation for your color grading workflow.

Balance Your Footage: The next step is balancing your footage. This involves converting your log footage to the standard REC 709 color space. It’s a vital process to ensure natural colors and tones in your video, providing a perfect base for the cinematic look.

Create a New Node: With the simple shortcut ‘Alt + S’, we add a new node to our flow. This node will be the key to applying our desired effect.

Apply DeSpill Effect: Navigate to the effect panel located at the top right of the interface. Here, you’ll search for the DeSpill effect. Once found, apply it to the new node. This effect is the magic ingredient in transforming your footage.

Select Your DeSpill Color: In the DeSpill settings, you have the option to choose from colors like red, green, and blue. For our purpose, select the green color. This unique selection is what shifts your footage into the stunning brown cinematic look.

Achieve the Cinematic Brown Look: By selecting green in the DeSpill command, the green tones in your footage will transform into a rich, cinematic brown. This simple adjustment is what sets your footage apart, giving it a professional and distinctive appearance.

Final Touches: With these steps, you’ve successfully created a cinematic brown look without the need for any additional tools or complex procedures.
