Hello filmmakers, I have been studying on my own the aspects of cinematography and have tried to further my knowledge by watching small independent films so I can apply some of the work to my own.
I've been going through YouTube videos that seem to have good short-film quality and I came across this western short last night that I liked, it looks as if the camera is about the same quality as mine and it seems to be a VERY low budget short.
My question is can anyone describe to me what they did with the color correction/contrast? It seems to work for it and has to have been done in post. I'm using Premiere so if anyone can tell me some pointers to make my footage appear with these tones I'd appreciate it - maybe what to mess with under "color correction" - RGB correction? three way color? contrast/brightness?
Here's the link to the western: Western
