GH2 Grading Test - Day for night in a castle

[ErikTande]

I was scouting a shooting location for a big music video I'm shooting in a month, and as we were shot listing we realized we needed some night shots, but we can't shoot at the location at night. So I whipped up a quick test from the scouting footage to see if we could shoot day for night. We definitely can, the image held up fine. Flowmotion, 24L setting.


Pay no attention to the poorly pasted in torches

Wow man, this is really solid. Did you grade it in Resolve? The slight color shifts give it a really nice texture.

Thanks! I just loaded it into after effects and made some masks and used levels / curves. Any moving shots will require a bit of tracking and roto, but I'm fine with it. We're going to have real torches on set to help sell the shots as well. That's in Bishop's Castle in Colorado.
