What Filmmakers Can Learn from the Color of 'Dune'
Feb 18, 2022
Color grading a big motion picture is a complicated affair. Dune, Denis Villeneuve’s space epic, is a story told on a grand scale that hops between not only different planets but distinct alien cultures.

But what can indie filmmakers, and filmmakers on a budget, learn from Cole’s workflow? How can they implement these concepts into their projects?

If you watch a lot of movies and TV shows, you might have noticed that
over the last few decades everything has gotten a lot more ... gray. No
