Yeah. It’s s controversial approach, but I tend to go for what feels right, rather than what may be strictly accurate. Probably influenced by the colors in the VHS sets I grew up with.

For instance, even though I’ve personally visited the part of Death Valley that the artoo canyon sequence was shot and I know the rocks aren’t very red, the VHS set I grew up with had the sequence looking pretty red in color, so it just felt right to make the rocks a somewhat dark red color. I have no idea if that’s accurate to the original colors, but it feels right.

I did run into a couple issues in a select few shots with bringing down the green lasers, which was easily fixed by slightly boosting the green. I lucked out with boosting the green slightly not introducing color anomalies like I thought it might.
