本视频教程是由FXPHD机构出品的Baselight数字色彩分级大师级训练视频教程第二季，时长：6小时，大小：13.7 GB，MP4高清视频格式，使用软件：Baselight，附源文件，共10个章节，作者：Mike Matusek，语言：英语。
本教程始终是fxphd方向最热门的课程。Mike Matusek引导视频课程的发布，并计划将他自己独特的见解呈现在课程中。Matusek是在芝加哥创建NOLO数字的创始人之一，在那里他创立了国家和国际广告，电视节目和功能。
本教程所讲内容不是某一特定应用软件必须的知识，但是却是对颜色分级创造性的目标进行讲解。课程中，我们会学习到Matusek多年的创意或者实用的经验。因此，课程中我们不仅会学到如何制作漂亮的图像，而且还会学到如何应对并处理客户提出的不一致的意见。
课程的一个关键内容是分级学习版块。课程中，Matusek将会为学员们制作两个项目，以测试他们的技能掌握情况。他会为项目定制目标，就像是客户向我们提出来的一样。学员们会将高品质的素材分级并在课堂中提交，作为课程审核的一部分。这是学习色彩分级的一个很好的方式，同时，也是向行业内成功的调色师取经的一个绝佳的机会。
课程中提供的素材都是全新的，包括由Variable公司制作的可口可乐广告中的场景，由Diamond Bros导演的Danko Jones视频片段，高品质的水下视频素材，以及短片《搬家》中的许多场景。
学习本教程的学员可以根据自己的喜好，自由选取颜色分级的应用软件。本教程并不是教你怎样使用软件，而是教你如何制作精美的图像。Matusek主要使用的软件是Baselight，但是本教程的目标是，让你掌握可以在任何应用软件中使用的技巧。

FXPHD GRD202 the craft of color grading ii
The Craft of Color Grading II is our sequel to the most popular course ever at fxphd. Professor Mike Matusek leads this offering, and plans to bring his own unique perspective to the course. Matusek is one of the founders of Nolo Digital in Chicago, where he grades national and international commercials, television shows, and features.
Like the original offering, this course looks to explore the world of the colorist and the craft of grading from an application-agnostic approach. It is not the specific buttons you need to push in a specific application, but instead a look at the creative and story telling goals behind color grading. The course will tap Matusek’s years of experience from both a creative standpoint as well as a practical standpoint. So we’ll not only be covering how to make beautiful imagery, but also things such as how to deal with the often-conflicting viewpoints of dealing with divergent views from clients.
One key aspect of the course is our grading review sessions. During the term, Matusek will create two projects for members to test their skills and have their work reviewed by him. He’ll provide creative goals for the projects, much like clients might provide. Members will then grade the high quality footage (hires R3D and DPX files) and submit it for review as part of the course. It’s a great way to learn the craft and a fantastic opportunity to receive guidance from a successful colorist in the field.
Course members should be comfortable grading in their application of choice. This is not a course designed to teach the operation of software, but instead is about creating great looking imagery. The primary software used by Matusek will be Baselight, but is taught with the goal of showing techniques that can be used in any application.
