How would Whiplash 'Not quite my tempo' scene look without it's yellow color grade? We ungraded it and compared it to the original shots from the film.

    The scene is so good that I forgot the purpose of the video halfway and was just caught up in the moment
  • the og is yellow to let the audience know that the movie actually takes place in mexico

    I must admit, Jeff Bezos did an incredible job portraying that character.

    I like to think of the alternate version where he doesn't see the chair coming and it just annihilates him. Everyone is freaking out at Fletcher, like "what are you doing?" "I dont know, trying to push him! Is he ok?" "Ahhhh, so much blood! I can't feel my legs!!" Fletcher goes to prison for Assualt and Battery, and Andrew spends the rest of his life in a chair, utterly confused and traumatized by his first day in class.

    Clearly the yellow is meant to highlight Simmons insane forearms

    I think the director nailed it with the lighting. It really feels like the whole movie takes place in old academia, with practice spaces that haven't had a lighting update since 1945 and use extremely warm-color lightbulbs.

    Without the yellow it feels like a normal film and the movie would probably have the same reception from its writing. The yellow gives the movie a very luxurious vibe like fine art

    I think the yellow makes it feel so much more surreal, Just like the scene is.

    The yellow is perfect. It's a bright, happy, and easy going/no stress color. Exactly what the movie is about

    The director said they chose this color because it makes the brass instruments pop and you can definitely see the difference. They almost look dull without color grading. Its amazing how much a single color can change a movie.
  • @Szymon331
    When you were supposed to judge the color gradding but you got sucked in by the acting and the story.

    I actually love the yellow. A live band or orchestra in the pit is also usually under a warm light to be less invasive so it feels thematically appropriate.
  • I think the yellow increases the jazz vibe. Often i associate yellow or orange lighting with calm and classy environments, combine that with a wooden room and you have the whole jazz package.

    The edited version makes it look like a short film.

    Literally paused the video. Watched the whole movie. Now, back to the video
