Color grade presets help
 

Hi guys,

I'm trying to improve the look of our films, and I really like the colors that light noise film have been able to apply to their film (see below).

LAUREN + EMILY – Light Noise Films

Would anyone know how they have been able to achieve the vintage warm colors grade, black and white effect (appears softer and to have other tones than a flat black and white), and the subtle film burns?

Does anyone have any links to Sony Vegas Color Presets to achieve any of these looks?

Thanks,
Rich

Rich, a lot of that can be done with tools such as Magic Bullet Looks from Red Giant and Boris Continuum Complete from Boris FX. There are a lot more available but those are the first ones that comes to mind.
The film burns look like light leaks are those are available for Vegas as well, including a number of free ones.
More information on some of the various packages can be found on the Vegasaur site. Go to the Download section of the site for several freebies.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your help. The Magic Bullet Looks appears good and I'll have a closer look through these to see how well they suit my projects.

The movie from light noise films also has some blurred vignetting. Would you know how I can achieve this look in Sony Vegas?

as mike says, mb looks, etc.,

blurred vig - copy track, blur one, use cookie cutter with feathered edge

a lot of that clip is also shallow dof photography. there's no real substitute for it.

You can also look at the Film Effects package in NewBlue.

I agree with Leslie, much of the look of the video has more to do with the footage than the effects, but the use of fx was excellent. The black and white mixed with some contrast adjustments explained a couple of great clips. Thanks for sharing the clip, Richard, very nice.
