I'm experimenting with color grading settings again. Left is with a more natural grading, right is with a typical hollywood style orange and teal setting and some other effects. While the version on the right feels a bit more cinematic and makes the colors pop, I still somewhat tend towards the version on the left. Which do you prefer?

The difference is really subtle, but I'd go with the "Hollywood" version, unless it adds some processing time.

My preference would be those on the right but agree with CJoe, the difference is not enough to warrant longer processing time.

I prefer the right, it is sharper.

? Don't see any orange / teal look on these, just a marginal contrast raise on the right. Or other way, is the left one without? Sure you're showing us the right pics? ;-)

The difference is indeed mild. I may have stared at the images for too long and gotten lost in the process along the way. It was initially more dramatic, but I had already reduced the effect. I've been experimenting quite a lot with lighting lately and really hit the jackpot on one setting yesterday. Took 6 hours to render a 3 minute video, but it was so worth it!
