On the Group-pre-clip you set an ACES transform to go from your camera native space to ACEScct and apply the reference gamut compression there. It's easiest to use groups for your clips to grade.

You can also opt for a manual setup which helps if you need display referred Fusion elements like texts otherwise they'll be tonemapped. Rightclick all your footage and choose the proper input colorspace/transfer function and you're off to the races.įor raw footage you don't have to do anything because Resolve auto handles conversion. You set the project settings to ACEScct, ACES version 1.3, set your output. IDT (input to timeline conversion -> Timeline Working Space (grading happens here) ->(timeline to output converison) ODT It is very similar to how DaVinci Color Managed works. If you are familiar with what ACES is and means for your workflow then there is not much to cover in regards of setting it up in Resolve. I can't think of a 'Definitive Guide' that I came across but Cullen does indeed cover the topic reasonably well.
