Looking good!

The grainy, gritty feel is exclusive to the teaser or the movie will have that too?

Jim Newberry · July 6th, 2008, 01:19 AM

The teaser looks fantastic! Was that shot at 24F?

Kris Bird · July 6th, 2008, 09:07 AM

Yeap, 24F!

The 'grainy gritty' look is indeed what we were going for :)

Bill Pryor · July 6th, 2008, 11:33 AM

Did you get that look with Magic Bullet, or something equivalent, or in camera? I think it's great.

Cole McDonald · July 6th, 2008, 01:10 PM

That looks amazing. Great shots, nice filmy looking exposures, good set, costume and makeup design. Yay You! Can't wait to see the whole piece.

Cheers Cole, Jim!

Bill- shot flat in camera, colour-corrected in vegas, literally all a mixture of colour-curves, hsl, and secondaries. general flow is- CLIP->curves(correction/ matching of contrast and/or colour)->HSL(sat balance)->Secondary(UP saturate skin tones only)->Curves(tone into blue/green)->Curves(contrast tweak)->BW(desat approx 50%). i.e. the key look is to up-sat the skin tones, then tone to blue, then add contrast, then desat. this keeps some life in the skin and stops the overall blue from being too dead. Glad you like, it works well and you can see it working better in the full thing :)

Great work on the teaser, nice and polished. Look forward to seeing the full thing.
