Den Haag - 550d footage

Hi,

Here's some footage I shot in The Hague last week. It's my first proper attempt at filming with the 550d. Also my first attempt at grading in Magic Bullet, so any constructive feedback is appreciated.

Lenses: Canon 50mm 1.4, sigma 10-20mm

Also, some live music footage of Bombay Show Pig. Crappy audio is from the camera's internal mic.

The colour footage looks pretty much like mine off my 550 with the settings i use,what did you have to do to yours.
 
I started from neutral, then contrast/sharpness all the way down, saturation -2. I added contrast, sat, and sharpness in post.
 
its strange my settings are all a lot higher than yours with neutral ,and my footage looks very similar what do think you gain by doing it your way.The reason i ask is i only use basic software and dont do picture adjustments but i am happy with my results .
 
I think you gain more control in post when you shoot flat because you have a higher dynamic range to work with.

I'm still a novice at this, though. These are the settings that were recommended here and some other forums I visit.
