That was so EXCELLENT! And that was seeing the 1st-pass, then the 2nd-pass came and … |
This is going to be AWESOME!!
Another 2¢, use the abundance of good color, on-the-set photos as a color correction guide. I’ve always been deimpressed by how much real color is missing from the various releases (and it gets worse with each new version). Here’s a proof-of-concept with the 1st-pass image, compared it to a set shot (from online search), and CC'ed into this . .
UPDATE:
Just wanted to add these picture settings (yellow highlighted) for the curious.
First applied, my Technicolor-izer approach does not rigorously duplicate Technicolor film sensitivity – it’s only a proof-of-concept that progressively increases a primary-color’s saturation as it becomes increasingly dominant among the remaining primaries (per pixel). It shows very little effect at this stage, but the color correction will bring it out . .
Next, get your eye-droppers ready! The color correction is likewise rule-of-thumb from a paint program, working on individual R-G-B components. It mostly consists of setting the spectrum end-points to approach the dark (>0) and light (<255) areas of the reference picture (into the legal picture range of approximately 16-240). Then gamma independently moves the R-G-B mid-points to approach the similar middle-colors (≈128±). Fine tune it once or twice, for when one setting affects another, and then you’re done . .
