In the film "Mad Max: Fury Road," Director George Miller aimed to break away from the typical desaturated post-apocalyptic genre by creating a colorful film with Colorist Eric Whipp. In this Sight, Sound & Story highlight, Eric talks about how this was accomplished through unique shooting techniques such as avoiding blue filters, overexposing shots, and selectively enhancing shadow details. Eric and the director gave a special focus to characters' eyes, which are roto and sharpened to strengthen the audience's connection.
Sight Sound & Story: Live: Making the Grade: Color in TV and Film
Moderator: Jason Druss (Sr. Product Marketing Manager at Frame.io)
Panelists: Andrea Chlebak ("Elysium," "Chappie") & Eric Whipp ("Mad Max: Fury Road," "Happy Feet")
Inside Episode XII: The Colorist's contribution to a film goes beyond just making the scenes and images look good. A great colorist will draw the audience's eye to what is important in the story and magnify the emotional tone of the film in ways that can be subtle yet powerful.
Join us for this special conversation with senior colorists Andrea Chlebak ("Watchmen,
Elysium," "An American Pickle") and Eric Whipp ("Mad Max: Fury Road," "Happy Feet," "Lego Movie 2: the Second Part") as they discuss the creative process of color grading in their work. Jason Druss, Senior Product Marketing Manager at Frame.io., will guide the conversation as well as show examples of how Andrea and Eric use color to connect with audiences. There will be a section for you to ask questions during this event!
