Everything else in the frame forgives you. Skin doesn't. If the tone is off by a few degrees the whole job reads amateur — and most people feel it without knowing why.
Built around African and mixed complexions — the tones most grading tutorials quietly skip.
Judge exposure and balance from the waveform, parade and vectorscope, so your grade holds up on a phone, a TV and a cinema screen — not just your monitor.
Correct mixed and difficult lighting and keep tones consistent shot to shot across dark, medium and light skin, in the same frame if you have to.
Build looks that carry a mood on purpose, defend the choice when a client asks why, and turn the ones that work into your own reusable LUTs.
Nothing theoretical for its own sake. Every lesson ends with something you can use on a paying job the same week.
Where correction ends and grading begins — and why mixing the two is what makes footage look muddy. You'll leave with a node order and a working setup you repeat on every project.
The core of the course. White balance, exposure and the vectorscope skin tone line, applied to real African complexions in real Lagos lighting.
Why a palette makes an audience feel something, and how to pick one that serves the story instead of the trend. This is where your work starts looking like yours.
The grade is decided on set. Get this module right and post stops being rescue work.

The same looks we run on commercial work — built to sit correctly on African skin, with a node guide showing exactly where to drop each one in your timeline instead of slapping it on the clip.
Real clips in mixed and difficult lighting, ungraded, so you work every module on the same shots we do instead of hunting for something to practise on.

Yes. Module 01 starts from opening Resolve and reading a node graph, so nothing is assumed. If you're already grading professionally, start at Module 02 — that's where the skin tone work lives and it's the reason most people buy this.
No. Everything taught here works in the free version of Resolve 18 and above. A few Studio-only features get mentioned where relevant, but nothing in the course depends on them.
