Mike Bao Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Big overhead source perhaps neutrally balanced color? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Schweigart Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 That is a low contrast desaturated look done mostly in the color grade with the blacks boosted a bit. It was most likely shot in some sort of log or flat curve on an overcast day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd Hopings Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 Thx for the replys ...but I can go about dropping the contrast and desaturate the footage. But how would I boost the blacks ?

Jon Schweigart Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 You will need editing software that has a three way color correcting tool or a third party plug in. This will allow you to control the Shadows, Midtones, and Highlights. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd Hopings Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) Ok this is what it look like after low contrasting, desaturating, and boosting shadows!   example 1: https://www.dropbox.com/sc/9d92yefl8b039yr/_hebQE7jDi  example 2: https://www.dropbox.com/sc/znru8sljltkvlzk/ieamc1H3fz  original footage: https://www.dropbox.com/sc/f8ft1i472ledh6y/mRtAtUPRvG Edited April 8, 2014 by Todd Hopings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mei Lewis Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Try also pushing the overal clour temperature cooler. Â Where's the original image from? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Schweigart Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Getting closer. I'd say desaturate a bit more, bring the mids down a tad and push a little towards blue. Play around with it until it matches to your taste. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
