what's going on guys welcome to another really cool color grading tutorial and
today I'm gonna talk about relatively basic thing but I'm sure a lot of people
really don't know how to do this and what I'm gonna talk about is correcting
your lens distortion corrected now for example I've shot this on Blackmagic
pocket 4k I color graded with my origami lot and the lens that I use was olympus
12 to 40 now when you translate it to a full-frame you probably get somewhere
between 24 to 70 range however when you're filming something at 12
millimeter you get an interesting fisheye kind of look
now obviously depending on what you're filming and what's the mood of your shot
and many other variables sometimes you want it sometimes you may not so I'm
gonna show you how you can manipulate this today and in general it's hopefully
will help you out in the future if you have any questions about it so the first
method it's relatively very basic it's through the editing if you don't want to
touch the color panel you don't have to in your editing make sure you have
inspector selected and over here is a little preset called lens correction so
double click on that and depending on the shot sometimes it will do a good job
when you click analyze it would calculate everything and it would give
you the correct Distortion now for example in this particular shot I don't
think anything going to change because it doesn't have anything really to grab
onto so what we can do is manually figure it out
so here you have distortion and a little slider you can do left or right and
basically once you start doing that I'm gonna let me reset really quick I can
see that this wall right over here is clearly distorted we can we can see it
over here it's kind of in a little bubble so what I'm gonna do right away
I'm just gonna start playing up and down and we can see how this thing is
changing now ideally things like that you probably would have
upper chart when you shoot something especially if we're talking about
complex VFX pipeline but since it's a basic video we're not gonna talk about
that so here I distorted and we can see that the shot looks more or less correct
now like if I'm gonna reset this we can see the whole bubble perspective so this
one is for edit tab now I'm gonna show you color tab so in the color tab create
a new note you can do it in the very first note or you can do it in a very
last note that's up to you go to open effects and type in lens distortion or
just simply select it from the list okay right over here resolve effects warp and
drag it to you note now the first thing you can see everything looks kind of
crazy and realistically the only thing you really need to worry about is the
very first lighters it's splitted to RGB but by default a gank means they're all
united if you are gang this you're gonna be able to individually manipulate them
if you want to do some crazy effect this is place for you
so let's reset this clicking and we can start cranking it back and see how that
affecting our shot okay so here we have it the shot looks more
or less proper now and I'm gonna do ctrl G and we can see before and after so let
me do fullscreen so you guys can see it again
before and after before and after alright and this is how you correct lens
