A big part of my basic grade kit

Useful powergrades can help cut hours of your color session time. PixelTools are a standard part of my Resolve system, and they help give you a great finishing touch on any project.

Easy Film Print Emulation

PixelTools film lab is a great product to get you to quickly emulate film print and negative all native to resolve which means fast render / playback compared to some third party plugins.
The latest version gives you more options and the way the power grades are set up, you understand how the FEP is constructed allowing you great flexibility to get the desired result.
Like other PixelTools products I own, the craftsmanship and support is top shelf.

Great for inspiration

I've only just started using this powergrade collection, but already find them super useful for getting inspiration at the start of a project. The guide that comes with them makes them super easy to manipulate to push in any direction you want to go.

Expertly put together

After learning about PixelTools (thanks Darren) and then eyeing the film lab collection for a while I finally had to get it and what a set of Powergrades.
As non-destructive, editable grades you can apply and tweak to suit your needs. The best bit is to take a look at how they built it all up to understand more about what goes into emulating a film look.
The utilities are great as they give you specific elements you can drop into your own work when you only need a bit of something rather than the entire package.
