Stu Maschwitz: Creating a Summer Blockbuster Film Look

I came across a really insightful tutorial on color correcting. It’s by Stu Maschwitz, Sin City’s Visual Effects Supervisor and Red Giant TV Creative Director. He takes us into Adobe After Effects and shows us how to get the looks seen in Transformers 2, Terminator: Salvation, and The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3. Even if you don’t have the Red Giant effects that he uses, it is still a great tutorial in just getting a greater understanding on the trends and techniques used by the big boys. Enjoy.

You can se more of his casts on his Vimeo channel or his blog Prolost.com.
