I colour corrected some stills from #StarWars #TheRiseOfSkywalker to be less blue. Added some grain aswell. For this I made Exegol have more of a gray look to add a lifeless feel to it. It also allows Kylo’s saber to pop against the darker colours. More in the thread.

Babu’s workshop seemed too dark in the film. I thought that being a droidsmith he would need lots of light to see properly around the droid parts. So I upped the brightness & shifted the blue tint to a more yellow gold one. Since it’s 3P0’s scene, it features his primary colour.

I took away the bright blue sky on Pasaana. I wanted it to feel more dry and rough.

Kef Bir. While the heavy blue is appropriate for a water world, I wanted to do something different. Make the moon seem colder by making the blue white. Also with white, the distant Death Star becomes shrouded in a fog. I like it.

The fleet. I upped the brightness so you can see more of its scale and vastness.

As of today I am expanding the thread! Let’s begin with Luke on Ahch-To. Here I made the fire a bit more clear, same thing with Luke.

Rey finds Leia’s saber! Lots of blue in the scene. I wanted a more green and brown palette to match the island. Here we can see that the colours pop so much more. Especially the bronze on Leia’s lightsaber. #StarWars

I’m saving the best for last here. Han and Ben. I toned down the overall blue to allow the ocean’s colour to take the spotlight. I also tried to make the colours on the wreckage itself come out more. We can finally see the lovely set itself!

Not much to say here. Less blue, dark blacks. Mellow sky. #StarWars

“I know.”
I hope you enjoyed my attempts to add some flair to the look of #TheRiseOfSkywalker
That’s all folks! (For now)

The thread continues! Another Death Star one here. I gave this frame the same colours as my Han & Ben frames since they’re on the same planet. It makes the wreck feel cold and dead. It’s very appropriate.

My favourite shot in the film here. I gave it my pastel blue makeover and it allows some rust to shine through around the room. Adding to the station’s decay.

Caught! Here I made the ship interior more grey and corporate looking. It allows the stormie’s armour to be in their full glory and lets some very First Order like reds to be seen.
