That thumbnail makes no sense. The B&W scenes in the movie were filmed with infrared, which means they committed to the look in camera.

[@matt-lacey]

Yeah they musta PSd the color back in

[@JulianClarkFilms]

hate that click-bait crap @@matt-lacey

[@indiefan23]

They just colourized it so you could see what it looks like. Dude clearly is an expert at film manipulation. It's just so you can see. They talk about how it was in IR.

[@skiradec9224]

I'm here to say the same

[@indiefan23]

@@skiradec9224 I'll say the same to you. Isn't it obvious that the master film editor added colour to this to show us what it would normally look like? He talks about how the film shot it in IR. It's a cool demonstration. That's all it is.

I think this is the best clickbate i have fallen into

[@Huntlley]

Around 2:00 you mention the intention of having interior dark and the outside brighter. During the movie, at one point, I had to partially shut my eyes, as the scene moved from an interior scene to outside in a single frame, and my irises were burning.

They used an infrared camera for the Harkonen scenes. Not just some color correction

Yes, that’s explained at 8:09

Hey, can you guys make a video about color grading like movies. A lot of movies are “shot on film” but lack the grain and or halation like normal film. Yet they still don’t look “digital”. How do they do this?

[@DriesduPreez]

9:30 Careful... your thumbnail is misleading. The footage wasn't originally colour and then made monochrome, nor was the actor without special makeup. Your thumbnail shows this exact shot, expect with superimposed teeth and eyebrows.

[@ahmadhasan3258]

You have to understand, IR cameras see our skin differently, the skin is super smooth with it and the eyes and everything has this unique look you cannot recreate with editing. it is just like another lens, can you edit in another lens? close but never good enuf

[@jordanbrock8856]

Might have been the theater where I saw Dune 2 but I thought it was way too dark. Felt like I couldn't see over half the movie. Was like the director said, "how about we go from a scene in the dark of people talking right to another scene in the dark with people talking. Also throw in a knife fight but make sure it's also at either sunset or sunrise so the audience won't be able to see what's happening. Oh and throw in some rapid edits too."

[@evilparadigm]

The theater may have set up the screen incorrectly for the film

[@LalitaBanana]

You misspelled Denis Villeneuve at the very beginning btw ^^' It's Denis and not DenisE hehe

Don't forget to select "don't recommend channel "

[@alphaomega154]

villeneuve's works tend to have that style of art directions. what do you call that, conceptual clean visuals? its not trying to be realistic, its doing the film like PAINTING. every scene is conceptual "painting". this is why he always use the SETS as a way to tell the story. so this is difference in how normally movies are made where the background and sets are simply the world of the story being told. in villeneuve style, the set is part of the dialogue. part of the story telling. that's why it will require you to rewatch the scene several times before you noticed some details that is part of the story telling in the scene set. for villeneuve, the screens is the illustrations. instead of the actors dialogues. every shot is a narrative. but that has caveats, and some people like me cant much appreaciate that direction. since i prefer something extraordinary/non existent that inspires REALITY, instead of "realism" that inspires an "illusion" (like how most historical paintings by famous painters do). even if its a fiction, as the wow factor.

[@sedatfidan7896]

Hi. English is not my native language. Could you add English subtitles. I can't understand some words.

[@user-ww3hf2ih9r]

you can turn on subtitles. just press cc on a video

[@sedatfidan7896]

Of course I use it but sometimes this automatic subtitles shows wrong word.

[@ryanmathison3608]

What’s the deal with the change pronouncing Arrakis? It’s: “Ah-Rack-Iss” Not: “Air-A-Kiss” Nor: “Air-A-Keys” Especially if you expect me to ignore the “S” in Denis or the “VE” of Vilenueve.

[@TimLutherLewis]

Arrakis. Not Arrakeez.

Denis and his team clearly don;t understand deserts. do you see light bending because of heated air anywhere? Do you see mirages anywhere? Do you see people sweating?! They often film in winter in the desert and put glycerin to look like sweat, but not here apparently!!

[@emadSciFi]

I don;t buy these justifications. He messed up in part one, and changed things - fixed them - in part two. And Lynch avoided all this visual mistakes in the original movie!!
