00:00So guess what? Filmora has teamed up with Dolby to bring Dolby Vision to Filmora.

00:05So what does that mean?

00:06Hey, it's me again, Andres, and today we're going to be exploring why Dolby Vision is so special and how to use it in Filmora.

00:13But wait, first, it's history lesson time with Sanchit.

00:20Dolby Laboratories has been at the forefront of innovation for decades.

00:24From pioneering surround sound to transforming digital cinema, their quest for perfection led to Dolby Vision,

00:31a cutting-edge, high-dynamic-range format that enhances color, contrast, and brightness.

00:37Unlike conventional HDR formats, Dolby Vision adapts to every screen with dynamic metadata,

00:43adapting brightness and color settings frame by frame,

00:47adapting HDR footage for regular displays and regular footage for HDR displays.

00:51In other words, dynamic metadata makes every frame of your video look good,

00:58no matter how you're watching.

01:00It could be TV, phone, it doesn't matter.

01:03Now, how all this affects my production process?

01:07Well, in every way, it changes.

01:12Let's talk about brightness, for example.

01:15I filmed this shot on my phone.

01:17When I tried to expose the outside, the inside became underexposed.

01:20And when I tried to expose the inside, outside became overexposed.

01:24So, I changed the setting on my phone to enable Dolby Vision HDR.

01:28Then, bam, everything looked great.

01:30I don't have to choose between deep blacks or bright highlights.

01:33I can just have it all.

01:35And then, I start editing.

01:38Oh, no!

01:39The inside of the house was still too dark for my liking.

01:42So, I just brightened the image without revealing any underexposed pixels or missing details because there are none.

01:48Now, let's go back to Sanjid to learn about color.

01:52Regular SDR cameras capture a measly 16.2 million different colors,

01:56whereas Dolby Vision cameras can capture about 68 billion colors,

02:01allowing you to create sharper and more colorful images than ever before.

02:05Thank you, Sanjid.

02:07But what does having more colors actually look like?

02:11Well, let me show you.

02:12With so many colors, I was able to completely change the look and feel of my video,

02:17even after I had shot it.

02:19But do you really need all these extra colors and shades?

02:22Yes.

02:23You need them.

02:23Most TVs nowadays have high dynamic range,

02:26and Dolby Vision is commonly used in streaming platforms like Netflix and Prime.

02:30So, if you are not shooting HDR, people will actually notice that your video is lower quality.

02:36But what about social media?

02:38Would people notice on social media?

02:40Well, you tell me.

02:52Jump scare!

02:53So, how do you use this groundbreaking tool to make your video sharper and more lifelike with Filmora?

03:00Let me show you.

03:01First, I import my Dolby Vision footage.

03:04Then, I adjusted the color space by going to File, Project Settings,

03:09and selected HDR Rec 2100 HLG.

03:13Once I finished editing, I went to Export and set the format to a Dolby Vision format.

03:19These formats are only available on Mac for now.

03:21I export it in the proper color space by pressing the setting option beside Preset.

03:26Navigate to Export Color Space and select HDR 2100 HLG.

03:31If you can't adjust your color space,

03:33make sure GPU acceleration is enabled on your device by going Preference,

03:38then Performance.

03:39Enable it, and then Restart Filmora.

03:42And there you have it.

03:43Now you can unleash the power of Dolby Vision HDR with Filmora.

03:46Deeper blacks, brighter highlights,

03:48and an expanded color palette with just a few clicks.

03:51Still have some questions?

03:53Do you want to know more technical information about Bitrate?

03:56Or maybe the difference between a codec and a wrapper?

03:59Let me know in the comments below.
