With Jurassic Park, whose original masters are no doubt long gone from the backlot fire, all we have are probably 2nd or 3rd generation internegatives. Don't forget too that the negatives are Open Matte, so if you scan it at 4k, and then crop it to wide screen, you now have about 1080. The various different Blu.
The movie hadn't gone through an actual DI yet, so you were seeing the bullshit, quick color grade they slapped on it for the early trailers. Colin, the DP, etc, wouldn't be super involved in the coloring at that stage. Now that the movie is almost (all the way?) done, you're seeing actual color grading.
If you take a look at the original film, before the technology for color grading existed, you'll notice a more naturalistic tint to everything - most importantly, the dinosaurs themselves. I know they're not even close to being done with post. As others have said it's to do with colour grading of the image.
The best example I can give is the films themselves - Jurassic World has 'cool' or bluish colour grading, while the original Jurassic Park has a more neutral/natural warm colour grade. Want to practice and learn how to colour grade? In this video I attempt to recreate the colour grading found in the Jurassic World movie.In this video I'll b. Since 1993, Jurassic Park has had its colouring significantly altered since it's theatrical release.
Using shots from a 35mm scan and production stills, I have attempted to regrade the Blu-Ray (German 2011) to appear more accurate to the original theatrical release. In the gameplay settings I found"JP era color grading" option. But I don't see any difference in default or Jurassic Park.
So what is this? 🎬 Digital Color Grading: The Jurassic World Color Grade Makes It Look Fake! 🎬Why does Jurassic Park (1993) still look so real, while Jurassic World (2015).
