I definitely know what you mean. In comparison, it is incredibly different. However, viewed in motion I've been pretty happy with the results.

Yes, the vast majority of my settings were applied in After Effects using Hue/Saturation settings. I've struggled with finding the correct Brightness and Contrast settings, as the lower saturation causes the brightness to make the film appear washed out. However, having color corrected mainly with saturation, hue, and individual color brightness, upping the master saturation causes pretty bad artifacts.

I color corrected against Harmy's despecialized Star Wars.
