Dusk Till Dawn

The next thing I wanted to talk about is the Robert Rodriguez television adaptation of his cult classic "From Dusk Till Dawn". It tells the story of the Gecko brothers trying to get to Mexico while being chased by cops. The reason why I wanted to talk about it is because of it's use of colour grading.

  

Rodriguez's work is very stylistic and that is partially due to his colour use. It as a nice finish to the video and really makes the screen vibrant and is something I would like to experiment with this for my project. 

Here is a piece from an article where Rodriguez talks about colour:

“Since I shot in color, we’d take the color out and make it a stark black-and-white, but at any time in post I could bring a color back in,” says Rodriguez. “You could then use color as a weapon; a really strong storytelling tool.
