Everyone loves the incredible quality and contrast range of film, however no one loves the film grain that often makes keying, effects and other work difficult. Film grain is a bigger problem in HD where it's easily seen and makes incredible images look cheap. The problem is worse because film grain is often enhanced by the color grading process. Just pushing the grade even a little can pull out the grain and make shots look incredibly noisy. Film grain reduction is one of the most important film processing tasks before film can be used further down the production pipeline and DaVinci Revival makes film grain reduction a breeze!
DaVinci Revival has incredible film grain reduction tools with controls for automatic reduction using spatial blending and patch size. Often film scanning can introduce electronic noise on top of the natural film grain, however DaVinci Revival can tell the difference! Noise level and correction range can be quickly set, and all grain and noise reduction is handled independently for each color channel in either RGB or YUV for incredible results. For even greater control you can choose luminance only processing or full color processing. You can even sample and add grain back into a shot if required! DaVinci Revival is so good at treating film grain, you'll use it on all your film jobs!
