Description

The glossy Hollywood grade that warms skin and highlights toward orange and drops shadows into cyan-teal, so faces pop off cooler backgrounds. It suits action, portraits, and wide establishing shots that want a big-budget, high-contrast finish. Inspired by the digital-intermediate color work that has dominated blockbuster cinema since the mid-2000s.
