Vimeo is being weird about copyright. It's a fcpx apple soundtrack. Weird.
anyways, until I figure it out here are some screengrabs.

Looks great paul. What lenses and filtration did you use?

 

[pchristoph]

Thx George. 50mm macro takumar and 135mm takumar lenses. Custom white balanced to set kelvin using a grey card @ 38ire. I used 1/8 plus green to push more magenta into the image (reduces green). I only white balanced once probably around 7pm, and let the image get naturally warmer as the sun set. I also added a straw filter to push colors warmer which created the look I was after (in camera). Low key sat turned down to -10 in the PP to control things from getting too muddy in the lows, as I was underexposing . Color corrected using color finale in fcpx. Just used a simple curves adjustment/saturation and done. Cheers, Paul

Very nice!

For this warm look I think its especially appealing when something like his white shirt comes in and remains a bit more neutral, in contrast to the warm skin and sky.
