Total Recall 35mm Regrade

[alexpeden2000]

Some of you may have seen the Colour Grading Guide thread that I'd started a Total Recall project based on the 35mm SDR scan that's out there..

Slow but steady progresss so far, I'm now at 43 minutes in so thought it was a good time to give it it's own thread.

All done in DaVinci Resolve with the DrDre tool used to create (many!) LUTs

   


Still a ways to go but will post more updates in due course. Using the Eagle 4K as the base and will include as many audio & subtitle tracks as people want. Any feedback welcome!

I like the way the regrade looks, although I expected the colors to have more contrast and saturation.

Yeah I’m not sure if it’s how my MPC is set up but I don’t think those thumbnails capture it properly. I’ll take some with VLC and see what difference it makes.

Still got to do final colour/contrast adjustments anyway so nothing is set yet. Wanted to get all the Dre work done first.

Looking good so far alexpeden2000. Hope the rest of the project goes smoothly for you.

I like the way it looks, keep at it!

Speaking of audio tracks, are there any releases that use the 70mm mix?

VLC is bad for screenshots because of low quality nearest neighbor upscaling of chroma planes and use of wrong color space.

Would use madVR renderer in MPC.

Would use madVR renderer in MPC.

Will give that a try, I think I already have that on my other computer which I was using to watch videos on MPC and I seem to remember it made a big difference.

I think the 5.1 from the Mind Bending (and possibly the Eagle) edition were reported to but not sure how accurate that is.
