[Avid-L2] OT: A New Parameter in my Tool Box

 

I'm working on a telethon show and one of the pieces was shot incredibly well.  That's right no sarcasm the crew did a great job and the footage was a joy to work with.  Then after finishing it I was informed they wanted the piece to look bleak like the town was struggling.  Oh well a little desat and contrast and sort pull down the reds and that should be something.  But then I looked into Sapphire and there it was in the Film Effect.  The Preset "Winters Grip", how could I resist?  It was a bit heavy handed but dropping the setup and raising the gain and a few twiddles and voila I've made Bleaktopia. 

The funny thing was a hint I found on the saturation parameter.  It said said. "The lower the saturation, the greater the donations!!!"  Yes this part is sarcasm but when I finally get some really nice looking footage I have to bleak it out to pull on heart strings.  Maybe I'll get a Tshirt made.
