A look at Quigon and Obiwan meeting Jarjar. First the original, then the Revised, then a quick couple examples done as wipes from original to Revised to see a quick comparison.
This just looks great. The detail brought to light and hidden by the original color grading is astonishing.
The grading is all over the place through out the movie. Here I tried to bring out the yellow from the sun on the leaves in the highlights while also getting rid of the teal, but in the shadows i pushed the greens and blues slightly. The Field battle at the end Is going to be the biggest pain. Ive already tried a few scenes through out the movie and those during the climax need the most work. Ive got some promising results, but I think some vfx is still going to be needed. Like masking out sections of the background to add atmospheric haze. Specially with all that smoke after the battle’s been raging.
You do color correction on shadows? Damn, this is the extra mileage. I usually do WB—>CC to my liking in the highlights sometimes the mids and leaving shadows balanced on all colors —> contrast adjustment.
