So I think most of us are aware of the terrible colours on the 2007 release.
Right now I'm trying to colour grade the 2007 release to match the 2001 release as closely as possible:

The reason why I'm not just synchronizing the 2007 audio to the 2001 concert is because that the image compositing and image framing of the 2007 release is superior to the 2001 one (at least in my opinion).

Here are some current examples, and feedback would be greatly appreciated!

2001 release: http://i.gyazo.com/4e94312a7427a8b3f89ec327821148b2.png

2007 original:  http://i.gyazo.com/5e83b706b8d40ae59dbfefed2185c06a.png

2007 my mix so far:  http://i.gyazo.com/97ccb542f0e044b45c42f4d88a52791a.png
2007 less green: http://i.gyazo.com/16b024d5d83a664d1917930efb5a597f.png

Thoughts?

Nice. I feel you should reduce the slight green tinge in the dark areas though.

You guys are pretty amazing, you know?
I synced the 2007 audio to the 2001 audio a couple of years ago, but this is much better, So far it's looking great, are you thinking of sharing it?

You're almost there but there's still a bit you can do. I tweaked your last sample to match better to the 2001 version. The first screen in the picture below is 2001 version, 2nd (middle) is yours and the last 3rd is a little change I did. Make it something like this and it will be almost spot on :) Right now it's a bit blue & red.

What did you do to get to that result? :)
Couple of tweaks in VirtualDub, but I'm pretty sure any software can do this if you play with it enough.

That less green once is phenomenal.
Any way the wind blows...

I tried tweaking it a bit more: http://i.gyazo.com/85930efd02a0997605134d18d6e12bef.png


Seems good now. Check if other shots need more correcting ;)
