more contrast against the sky, bottom shots are all blue so the people and back ground dont pop out against the sky anymore

A. There is more contrast in terms of value between the people and the sky in the bottom image.

B. in terms of color red against blue contrasts more than orange and yellow against cyan. Learn colors.

No it's actually one of the best. The problem is that most colorists just totally suck.

>>80317501
What are some examples of good digital colorists, then? Genuinely curious.

>>80317501

>One of the best

No. It's one of the worst. It's like Ted Turner x 100.

The colorists just do what their told. The producers are the ones who now get the opportunity to "make this look exactly like that other film that just made money".

Robert Richardson got fired from World War Z and permanently banned from working with the studio because of the producers taking a dump all over his work in the digital color suite. And just look at OP's image - That's a great director and cinematographer team - and they still did the "let's make it look like urine to look old" schtick.

>>80317625
The Godfather, which started the whole post-modern sepia craze, was colorized chemically. You can't blame the entire digital format considering a lot of colorful films were also done digitally.

And Bob Richardson... colorizes digitally.

>>80315965
Well ok then, let's just have all films be in real time then? Because editing doesn't fucking happen in real life either

The issue is that it's hard to tell if something was the choice of the colorist or if it was at the behest of the DP.

Like OP, a lot of colorists are too retarded too understand color theory.

What in the hell are you even talking about? did you even read the post you're responding to? I was talking about value and color theory, not realism.

>>80317903
m8 the DP just grabs a flat profile from the sensor. the colorist works WITH the DP, so they in conjunction settle on a LUT.

>>80317903
STOP IT

A warm scene and you use blue/gray color schemes. KILL YOURSELF RIGHT NOW.

>>80317957
some DPs are more involved and some DPs are less involved. Like Steve Yedlin has his own custom software he uses to make his digitally-shot movies look filmic.

But I guess you think background doesn't count right?

Fucking clueless.

>>80318201
better green than gray

green evokes visions of fields, together with the orange, it's a pretty warm picture

the bottom is literally a sterile shot you'd see in any tv-show without any artistic merit to it

>>80318207
the human eye doesn't see in piss yellow. the LUT drains color out of the frame rather than casts warmth on it.

if the sun is coming from the right, the left cheek shouldn't be fucking shining

not to mention that it creates a dissonance with the characters OOF POV because it's way darker

this would imply that there is conflict, which isn't what the picture is telling us

either brighten up the back of the head too or think before you actually change something

ugh, fucking plebs

Civil War is shot like total dogshit. Colors aside the way things are shot as far as framing goes is completely amateur. I'm surprised more people don't talk about how much it bugs. I saw it in the theater and it was giving me a headache. I don't think I could ever watch that movie again.

>>80317750

One of my main issues totally beyond the actual color of the scenes in modern movies is that so few DPs on digitally-shot movies seem to pay attention to the values.

Film something. Don't use a filter. Try and make it cinematic.

Pro-tip. All movies use filters. Some use them correctly, some don't. Just because you pay attention to what kind of filter they use doesn't make it wrong. It's just you not understanding the choice that was made.

He does have a lot of great visual moments that are less "pretty" and more "conveys what you need to know about the scene/the mood". Though what I really enjoy about his movies are unrelated to the visuals

Are there any studies that show that color grading affects how we perceive a film? Peer reviewed?

First movie that came to my mind as well. I just watched this for the first time. It was... okay, but the coloring really pissed me off. Motherfuckers kept the digital film at the default settings and forgot to fiddle with the color and contrast. End result? A movie that physically LOOKS bland and gray.

>>80319795

Needs more piss.

Cold yellow piss signifies "warmth" and "artistic integrity". Something Lawrence severely lacks.

what pisses me off most is that most projectors don't display adequate brightness, so what you see in the theater is sometimes one third or one half dimmer and less saturated than what you'd see on a tv screen or monitor.

Cinematographers just don't give a shit about theatrical conditions anymore.

Apparently this is because the production teams are too fucking lazy to actually bother setting proper color values when they use digital film, and leave it at default. The default setting is extremely gray with no contrast, because it has the most information for the team to work with in post-production. Which is all fine, except when they're too lazy to actually bother.

This is apparently why all the marvel movies have that shitty gray look to them. I'm assuming the same is true of Arrival. Holy fuck what a visually bland movie that was.

>>80320091

Agreed. Fury Road actually had proper use of color grading and was going for a specific look. Although the "let's shoot our night scenes in broad daylight and use a blue filter" shit was indeed stupid. Wish they just did an actual night scene like in Road Warrior.

Regardless, it's not the same as all the other examples of hacks who just forgot to do color grading and have the "default digital camera bland gray" look to them.

Top is objectively better. The scene is set on a hot day. The actor in the foreground is visible sweaty and the actor in the background is wearing a hat that provides shade. The yellow tinting suggests some dust may be hanging in the air and on the church and trees.


By increasing the contrast of the scene and removing the yellow tint you have brought the image closer to reality but also taken away elements of the story. Now it just looks like some actors on a set.

>>80320314

Wow. That's fucked. That looks like my mothers home videos. There isn't a single drop of ART in that frame. Needs at least 50 gallons of piss to make it at least passably artistic.

them saying they intended it to look pissy and unified, from the horse's mouth:
>In his conversations with the restoration team, Willis emphasized that the most important visual aspect of The Godfather was its color structure. “It’s yellow-red in much of the lighting as well as the lab work, and that ties all three films together,” says Willis. “So my main concern was to get the color right.” Harris was able to track down original dye-transfer prints of The Godfather, and one of them, from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences’ Technicolor collection, was screened for Willis, who determined it to be an accurate color reference.

>“Gordon kept saying all three pictures look the same, that they have the same rhyme and rhythm and use of contrast, and it’s true,” says Daviau. “A lot of people wouldn’t notice that, but when you’ve dealt with the color correction, you see he’s right.” Willis notes, “The repeatability of the visual structure really has to do with making the right choices. The initial choice is taste, and maintaining the look is craft. There’s great elegance in simplicity. My choices in lighting and the overall color were designed to create a mythic, retrospective feel, [one] without clutter.

Something between these two is best. Vikings goes so far with the desaturation and blue filters sometimes that it loses visual appeal. The show airs on the History channel, they shouldn't be afraid of showing a little green here and there since that's what it was actually, ya know, like back then.

it's not just that though, it's that they ALL try and achieve a monochrome look to ape the success of what Godfather did, but it never works and by now is cliché.

>Of "The Godfather's" golden veneer, cinematographer Willis says: "I had a strong idea of how (the movie) visually should be put together. I grew up in New York in the '30s and '40s, and felt this thing should be a brassy yellow. ... I feel it's the appropriate patina for the movie."

>Coppola recalls being pleased and surprised when he saw the first dailies: "It looked like home movies or something."

Sounds gay.

Real artists just let their kids muck about with their favorite iPhone filters to get the look just right.

>The restorers consulted "Gordie" and followed his simple instructions for color: four points yellow, one point red. (The original golden tone on the 1972 master was added in post-production via color timing.)

just a hint of red is fine. I'm not gonna stop fucking prostitutes bareback.

I have been working with some attempts to clean up and upscale old videos. Mostly porn because that's what I actually care about.

Here is the original

>interesting to look at

I was quoting Hitchcock actually, but yea whatever. I don't care who said it, the point remains.

The dash of blue invites you in. It directs your eyes. Which is exactly what good use of colors should do.

Making everything look 'hyperreal', not only is it redundant, it's boring as fuck and there's literally no thought put into it other than 'it looks more real'

fuck you, i hope you go blind
