Create the final grade and cinemagraphs for a new series of the modelling competition format.

How it was done
Post-production director and colourist Lajos Pataki used DaVinci Resolve Studio to give the show a soft, creamy look, enhancing the natural beauty of the contestants. Using footage shot by DoP Adrian Weinbrecht on a Red Epic dragon camera with Zeiss Otus 85mm and 55mm lenses, and lit by two Arri M18 and M40 HMI lamp heads, Pataki began with a Kodak LUT as a base for the grade to help lift skin tones. He then enhanced details such as hair and eye highlights using a series of power windows. Cinemagraphs were used to showcase the models’ final photos. To create these ‘living photos’, Pataki exported graded footage into Cinemagraph Pro.
