Hi. I am working on a music video for my band that is stylistically reminiscent of 90s green day, and I am thinking pop punk music video looks from that era would fit it. Granted, looks are all over the place but I looked at a bunch of vids from the well-known bands of that era/style and many have similar looks...a lot of high contrast (crushed blacks/blown highlights, saturated colors, kind of a glossy look.
I understand some of that is lighting, film stock, art direction, makeup, maybe other stuff. But some is down to the grade. Are there any special techniques or effects that could be used to get these looks? Aside from the normal grading operations that is (isolating color ranges and tweaking them, etc.). I remember there used to be tutorials ok how to get the “300” look and things like that that required all sorts of layers and compositing. That’s what I mean. Maybe all that isn’t necessary with Resolve (or I might look into color finale since I edited in FCPX and that way I could stay in it). Thanks.
