Turn raw footage into cinema.

Filmmaker and colorist based in Milan. After 12 years grading commercials, shorts and music videos, I teach 40,000+ editors to build cinematic looks in DaVinci Resolve - without a Hollywood budget.

🎬

Blue Hour LUT Pack v3 just dropped inside The Grading Room - 12 new looks, free for all members. Heads up: launch pricing on the Color Grading Playbook ends Sunday at midnight CET, then it goes back to $69. And the August live grade session is already 60% booked.

Why I teach color

I spent my first five years as an editor believing my footage looked cheap because my camera was cheap. Then I sat in on a real grading session at a Milan post house and watched a colorist turn the same 'cheap' footage into a film in twenty minutes. Nobody's camera was the problem - the pipeline was. Since then I have graded commercials for automotive and fashion brands, finished two festival shorts, and distilled it all into a system simple enough to teach. Everything I sell here is that system: the same node trees, the same looks, the same checklists I use on paid work. No secret sauce held back for the 'real' clients. If you can edit a timeline, you can learn to make it feel like cinema - and it will change how clients value you.

What editors are saying

“The six-node blueprint cut my grading time from four hours to 45 minutes per video. I regraded my last three uploads and average view duration jumped 22%.”

“Booked a 1:1 before pitching a car dealership group. Leo rebuilt my reel's grade live on the call - I landed a 14,000 euro annual contract two weeks later.”

Jonas Weber · Freelance DP, Berlin

“The masterclass finally made scopes click for me. Two months after finishing it I passed the grading test at a post house and got hired as a junior colorist.”

Frequently asked questions

Do your LUTs work outside DaVinci Resolve?+

Yes. Everything ships as standard 65-point .cube files, which load into Premiere Pro (Lumetri), Final Cut (Custom LUT), CapCut, and even many cameras' monitor LUT slots. Each pack includes per-app install instructions with screenshots.

I shoot log on Sony / Fujifilm / Canon - will the looks hold up?+

That is exactly what they are designed for. Every pack includes camera conversion notes so your S-Log3, F-Log2 or C-Log3 footage lands in the right color space before the look is applied. The Signature LUT Handbook also teaches you why this step matters.

What is the difference between the Playbook and the Masterclass?+

The Playbook is the written reference: recipes, node trees and checklists you keep open while grading. The Masterclass is the guided path: eight lessons with drills that build the full workflow on your own footage. They overlap about 20%; most serious students end up using both.

What is your refund policy?+

Digital products and the course carry a 14-day no-questions refund. Memberships cancel anytime and you keep every LUT you downloaded. 1:1 calls and edit reviews can be rescheduled up to 24 hours before the session.
