That's fascinating. Here's another really good one...not *quite* so
Blender-centric...

From these videos, a person would get the imprerssion that the 'sRGB' color
model was the worst thing ever invented by man! I think that's a matter of
opinion (although I do see that there are dynamic-range limitations.) Yeah, this
'Filmic Color' add-on looks like what would generally be considered a
'post-processing' stage-- color-timing or color grading, as it's called in the
movie biz-- but used in Blender as part of the actual rendering step(?). This
kind of stuff has become *truly* sophisticated compared to the old film-oriented
color-timing, especially with the addition of HDR imagery into the mix.

I haven't tried using Blender yet, but I get the distinct impression that
learning it *well* would be like trying to learn Photoshop, Autocad and Maya--
all at the same time. Each one of those takes years to get really proficient at.
The sheer number of menu items in Blender appears mind-boggling.
