I just want to say a couple of things, I am liking the adjustment but…
- The re-grade on the opening credits on my screen looks a bit hard to read. But the WOW WOW is much easier to read. Do you think that perhaps that 35mm scan has pushed it a bit too bright?
It’s just I don’t think they would make the opening credits difficult to read?
- The Regrade on the bar shot, although the red tint is mostly gone you have a magenta remnant left in the image, I would also say it’s still a bit too red saturated. I assume it’s still early days on that but something is not right here in the bar. That is a black leather jacket Marion is wearing?
I struggled with the opening shot credits as well. They are slightly more readable when projected due to more dynamic range when watching on film (there is more range in the upper brights which just can’t be replicated in HD video when scanned from the high contrast theatrical print), but that is basically how they look. That shot from the negative is lower contrast, so it can be manipulated to be more readable in HD video (such as the wowow). Plus it is a second generation optical, whereas the theatrical print would be 6th generation for those shots. Hopefully that makes sense. I am curious to see how that shot looks if we get the second print scanned. It is possible that it is too bright on this print.
