For those interested, I found this little AE plugin that, amongst other things, also replicates real diffusion filters: http://aescripts.com/variable-diffusion/

Thanks for all the help and ideas so far. Looking forward to hear from you Ed when you manage to get in touch with the guys. Thanks to Instagram I stumbled upon a "behind the scene" snap of what looks like a very minimalist setup for shooting around London. No matte box or fancy rig on that day it seams. @bunk: They filmed that bit in Cappadocia, Turkey. Magic place!

Thanks for the tip! Never thought about the use of diffusion filters, but this actually makes a lot of sense.

Thanks for the replies guys and the examples Ebrahim. The more I look at it, the more I see what a nice effect can be achieved by "squeezing" those highlights. I don't have Magic Bullet, but I played around with some footage in FCPX and saw interesting results. Another bit of progress in learning the different styles of color grading!

I recently saw this ad that was directed and color graded by Matthew Firpo: What caught my attention, was the lovely "creamy" highlights and overal color grading of the video. I've seen this look before in fashion videos and, as a beginner in color grading, always wondered how to create it. So far I have been able to determine that the shadows are raised by about 10IRE and the highlights look to be lowered by around 10IRE. Any more tips on how to replicate such a look? Also, would you overexpose in camera when filming for this? The ad was probably filmed on a Red Dragon in raw. But would a GH4 for example (with it's lower DR) be able to get similar color? All advice welcome!

Great colours coming off the A7s. Some of the night shots had a bit too much of a blueish tint for my liking, but overal very impressive! Did you add stock grain on top of the footage, or is that (appealing) noise coming from the A7s itself? And I am just as impressed with the sound editing on this one. Would love to learn more about how that process goes. Do you have any tips or tutorial suggestions maybe?
