When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

Is matching the toughest thing for you when it comes to color correction? Well, you're not alone! In this course, taught by Fred Trevino, we'll go over some proven tools and techniques that will make your matching skills get to the next level.

This is an advanced class for those of you that already know the basics of Da Vinci Resolve, cinematography, and understand tools such as keys, scopes, as well as using windows and curves. In this class we'll cover: * Why shots don't match in the first place. * Breaking down shots so you know what needs to happen. * Good tools to use to match your clips. * Bringing it all together to match a short scene. So, if you're looking to gain one of the more powerful tools as a colorist then this class is for you!

Module details

Start strong by planning for success. This module shows how smart shooting choices—exposure, white balance, and lighting—set you up for easier color work later. You’ll learn what to watch for on set and why those decisions matter once you open Resolve.

Build your technical eye and toolkit. First, learn to “read” an image—what’s bright, what’s clipped, where color shifts live—then put Resolve’s core controls to work. You’ll move from diagnosis (scopes and visual cues) to precise, confident adjustments.
