Basic semi-automated style for darktable 3.0/filmic

I posted that already last week, but I can’t find the link anymore…

This is a basic darktable style to apply to get a “lightroom-like” (in the spirit, not in the result) base look with a generic filmic setting that mimics the original OCIO filmic (which is a pre-computed LUT, not a parametric tool) : Auto-filmic - Aurélien Pierre.dtstyle (2,0 Ko)

Bottom-line, automatizing filmic is super hard, but it’s easier to hard-set it and automatize the exposure settings (at the beginning of the pipe) instead.

Explanations will be given live on YouTube in 2h :

Very interesting screencast. I observe that you are never reconsidering the crop, which is what I always do first on my own images.

Thanks for the explanation, I thought that themain reason was that these are not your images. However, when we talk about speedy workflows, the most time I spend on the pictures is culling and finding a reasonable crop, especially if the output format is fix, e.g. for a title page.

Thanks @johnny-bit for transcription of my questions :smile:. I am still reluctant getting a google account, but if it continues like this, maybe @anon41087856 will get me there.

To answer crop & culling: I’ve send my photos already post culling. those were the ones I spent AGES adjusting :slight_smile:

Totally!

This was awesome livestream. I hope you’ll be able to do more of those on semi-regular basis in the future if time allows. Maybe different themes etc? Previous one was general Q&A, this one was speed editing… Whatever you’ll come up with would be good.

Also - in previous Q&A you’ve managed to hit couple of bugs, this time seems to went smoothly. Cool!
