How the Test Strip DCTL Transforms Your Color Grading Decisions

In this video I walk through a DCTL I developed for DaVinci Resolve called Test Strip. It is designed to help you compare multiple versions of a grade side by side, with variations in exposure, contrast, saturation, temperature, and tint. I created this tool to make grading decisions easier and more consistent, especially when working without a clear visual reference. Using ARRI’s Isabella test image, I demonstrate how Test Strip can support a practical grading workflow by making subtle adjustments easier to evaluate and match. It’s a simple way to approach side-by-side comparisons directly inside Resolve.
