Into The Abyss: Teal and Orange - Hollywood, Please Stop the Madness

Interesting post about the current fad of digitally grading film with a teal-orange colour palette. It makes skin tones pop against a strongly contrasting background, but also makes everyone look like they’ve drowned in fake tan.

I’m, embarrassingly, a total sucker for fake chrome effects using a similar colour palette, which I suspect is the reason it’s never hugely bothered me.
