Mike, can you go into a little detail on how you do your color grading? I love the cool purple/blue blown out highlight look that you get, for instance on your latest video Kill The Noise.

Thanks for all the inspiration and entertainment even if you can't get to my question.

That's mostly what I assumed. Out of curiosity are you motion tracking patches of overlayed color at times or do you aim to capture most of your color work in camera? Sorry if this is more of a technical or specific question than you're hoping for. Thanks again!

EDIT: I'm looking at a shot of the zombies, for instance, where their skin tones are blue and the backgrounds and clothes are purple/red. Assuming this was done in camera and then punched up a bit in post, but I'm wondering if you had any words of wisdom on capturing or creating that sort of look.

Thanks Mike, that clears up a lot. Haven't touched the Epic yet, been working with the Red One and tons of DSLR shooting, but obviously DSLRs don't give you the latitude or the color depth needed for that. Really good info, this is something I've been wondering about for a while when watching your vids, so thanks a ton for following up with the info. I'll definitely be a loyal fan.

This was beautiful.
