Wow great job! give us the details, what program did you use for grading also was this shot 24p. this goes to show that its not just the camera and lens but the person behind it. Cant wait to see the next part1

Glad you enjoyed it! We did all of the color grading in After Effects. Most of the work entailed desaturating the colors to give us a more "dead, depressing, and desolate" look. If we would've shot it over again, we definitely would've loaded our Canon T4i with a neutral color profile (i.e. cinestyle) so we would've had flatter colors to begin with and more latitude in post. We also would've used ND filters to give us more DOF. We were really bummed that everything turned out so focused. haha. Oh well -- live and learn. Hopefully, we'll do a better in episode #2!

Thanks so much for responding! Happy Halloween!

PS: We shot and rendered at 23.976.
