Blackmagic Design has announced that Colorist Deidre McClelland, CSI, used DaVinci Resolve Studio to grade RED DOG: True Blue, the highly-anticipated sequel to 2011’s RED DOG. McClelland graded the feature at post production studio Soundfirm’s Melbourne facility.
The creative team behind the original RED DOG film, Director Kriv Stenders, Producer Nelson Woss and Writer Daniel Taplitz, all returned for the new installment which follows 11-year-old Mick (Levi Miller) as he is shipped off to his grandfather's (Bryan Brown) cattle station in the remote Pilbara region of Western Australia. He prepares himself for a life of dull hardship but instead finds myth, adventure and a friendship with a scrappy, one-of-a-kind dog that grows up to become an Australian legend.
According to McClelland, Stenders brought a mood board to the grade with images from the region in the 1960s. “They included family photos and images of the landscape, and they all had the unique look that only Ektachrome can bring to an image: strong color and glossy blacks,” she explained. “Paintings by Albert Namatjira were also used as a reference for the incredible reds and oranges of the earth, the blue of distant hills and the sage green of the gum trees.”
