HD transfer and color correction complete

December 20th, 2007 : by Will Moore

I spent the last two days in Dallas with our DP Steve Acevedo supervising the color correction process. For those who don’t know, Color correction is the process of adjusting the color, contrast, and light of each shot in order to attain a certain look. It’s amazing what the colorist can do and the power that they have. They can pick a single point in a shot and add light to it… or make a sky red, or orange, or blue or green if you so desire. The goal is two-fold here, to make the overall film look good as well as to make sure shot by shot the colors and light match up.

It looks like we will be done in couple days and I am jacked about it! All that’s left is the sound mix and compositing. I can’t wait… I need a vacation and a lot of sleep.

    No black and white for this film.
    A colorist would be a neat job to have.
    I have learned that there is so much to do when making a film, a long process.

    Waiting on the finished film and waiting for the SMOKE to fly. hee
    I need a vacation too.
