Bens cloak is looking a touch green in a few shots Dre. Otherwise phenomenal work as always.
Yeah, I noticed it too. Here’s an update for these shots (including a few more tiny tweeks):
I like the way this looks, but I thought about it and I noticed something is perhaps wrong and I admire you to sticking with things and trying to get it right.
This was a quick test… And it may prove that separation masters were actually used albeit in slightly different hues.
Red was Hued one way all the other colors were hued the opposite direction. I am not telling you it should be this way and this is how it should look or anything like that, but it’s interesting to think that different “parts” of the colors are in the wrong hue in the same direction.
I understand you are trying to recreate the print color but if indeed the different colors are in the wrong hue in the same direction it will never look like a new film but also laterally you may have to shift the colors out in the same direction slightly where they may have been adjusted if you were using say another source as the Blu-ray? I would say the film is on the wonk to put it mildly. It’s a bit of a headache and if you can understand that Red Shift perhaps more than the rest weather that is part of the print I doubt the camera shot it like that when filming… I myself don’t crave some old knackered print that is all skew whiff but I do like the look of film and a bit of dirt, although I do not understand how different parts of the color spectrum can decide to shift together in the same direction?
Anyway Keep at it, it’s a challenge and perhaps I have shed a tiny bit of light on it although it is not meant to look like a print it does perhaps help to understand a bit better what might be going on if colors are shifting together in this instance like a cuddle.
R2 in the cave seems to be having color cuddle… The Binoculars part looks spot on it’s not affected like these later parts.
The Saturation is varying also a bit.
2nd attempt further Blue Hue separation and hued red back over a bit yellow added for another test.
Work to match this if you can… It looks the best.
actually thinking if I am pulling the colors further apart does this mean that it is gradually mixing hues to become something more monochrome eventually as this is where it is heading.
So applying a hue tug o war on it if you like. I can see the sand people on the cliff is travelling a bit pink also.
