Hm. That might look a bit on the cool side, but it's definitely better than red balance you had before!

OK, I can do <10. I think I'll have to determine the best value experimentally... somehow.

match it up against harmy's technicolor version

for the closest approximation.

 

that is what you're doing right?

That's a great idea, thanks!

Also, know that my goal here is not one of preservation; that is, I'm not trying to get a '77 IB Technicolor colortiming. Rather, my goal is to give Star Wars a look-and-feel similar to the 3-strip Technicolor films of the 30's-50's; e.g., The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938) and The Wizard of Oz (1939). (More recently, The Aviator used some digital witchcraft to get that look in post-processing.)

I know the trilogy isn't supposed to look like that, but I find the look so appealing that I figured it'd be worth a try.
