Good afternoon,

Do you color correct clips before or after you begin editing?

I recently downloaded DaVinci Resolve lite and began learning some simple color correcting techniques. FCP X has decent color correction tools but it is not sufficient for my needs. Historically, I have edited my project in FCP X then began color correcting the entire project. However, with Resolve lite, it had made a it a little challenging. I just wanted to get others opinion and best practices.

Thanks!

The usual workflow is to edit first. Color correcting is part of the finishing.

On a similar note, the new MacPro set up is getting everyone excited at DaVinci Resolve.

Color grading and audio mixing all come last, yes.
