Blackmagic Design today announced that A24’s comedy horror film “Y2K” was graded using DaVinci Resolve Studio editing, grading, visual effects (VFX) and audio post production software.
In “Y2K,” on the last night of 1999 two high school juniors crash a New Years Eve party, only to find themselves fighting for their lives in this dial up disaster comedy. Directed by Kyle Mooney with cinematography by Bill Pope, the film was color graded by Senior Colorist Charles Bunnag of Light Iron, a Panavision company.
Bunnag, who had worked with Pope as an additional colorist on both “Men in Black 3” and “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings,” discussed with Pope the style the cinematographer was hoping for on “Y2K.” “It was important to Bill that this movie look as if it were shot in 1999,” said Bunnag. “He wanted to emulate the look and feel of the raunchy teenage comedies of that era. ‘I want this to look like ‘Superbad’’ was not something I expected to hear from Bill, but that was a particularly helpful reference point and a good excuse for me to watch that movie again.”
