ok i'm going to be doing a short that may turn into a feature and i absolutely love the look of the cbs show "without a trace"

peter levy is the DOP.

the show has two main looks, the aerial shots are a blueish grey color, but the specific color/look i am going for is the interior look they have.

it is a bit grainy and i think it uses a black pro-mist filter?

any help on developing this look would be grately appreciated!

not neccesarily looking to copy it, but if i can figure out how they did it that would give me a great place to start and then i can make my own look with that as a base.

the show i'm doing is a drama with a lot of emphasis on the mood being set by the lighting and camera work.
