  • The reverse of video to film look

    Hey guys,

    For so long we have all wanted that film look from video, but, does anyone have any ideas on the best way we could make footage originally shot on film look more like home video?

    Cheers

    Jason

    How detailed do you want to be? What particular kind of home video are you going for? Different ones have different looks.

    Generally you want overly contrasted edges, blown out highlights, somewhat oversaturaded colors, slightly blurry, and not white balanced correctly. And, of course, moving camera; a lot of moving camera.
