Colorist Skip Kimball Grades Deadpool 2 with DaVinci Resolve
EFILM Senior Colorist Skip Kimball has graded the highly anticipated sequel, Deadpool 2, using Blackmagic Design's DaVinci Resolve software. The film, which features a unique visual style and extensive visual effects, was colored by Kimball to create a cohesive look across all elements.
Kimball worked closely with cinematographer Jonathan Sela to establish a straightforward approach to color, aiming for a softer, less contrasty look that matched the director's vision. The film's diverse shooting conditions and high volume of visual effects shots presented a significant challenge, but Kimball was able to seamlessly integrate them using DaVinci Resolve.
