Just watched it. You can tell it was shot on HD cameras because there's nothing film like about the footage. That's whats giving it the modern look. It looks even more video then the prequels.

It's shot on 35mm film. The video compression ( especially if you watched the youtube version) is heavily compressed which has eliminated almost all of the grain. Grain is more noticeable on the video on iTunes, but still you can see that the compression is killing a lot of it.

It isn't worth using this trailer as any basis to how the film will eventually look. The colour grading will have been done specifically for the trailer and will likely end up being completely different in the finished film; chances are that the effects aren't even finalised; you're seeing it through a heavily compressed format etc etc.

Thanks for the info!
