Behind The Curtain – 16mm Style Grade Part One

Unfiltered Start To Finish 16mm Style Grade

Due to incredible demand, I’ve jumped straight into recording a full fat behind the curtain on the 16mm Style Grade for Philipa Kitt.

I loved this job so I’m really happy to share it in all is gritty detail with you all.

If you’ve never watched these behind the curtain insights before they are longer than most and also cover every step of the way.

If you are looking for a concise fix to an issue or a particular method explained perfectly these are not for you.

If you are looking for an over the shoulder view of every step of the project including the pre-grading thoughts and annoyingly real-time fixes then these are exactly for you!

In this Insight I start at the very beginning of the grade and speak about :

My original grade that I didn’t go for after the client sent references over.

The reference images.

The camera format and why we went for a pre-conformed workflow even though it was shot on Red at 8k.

Starting the grade and finding the feel

Comments Please!

I’m always extra excited to hear comments on these Insights as I can make sure to cover any questions in the next part.
