  DP Notes:

What a difference post color-correction makes!  The still frames, below, are my suggested look for this Western short.  After the shoot, Aaron came back with a very aggressive, stark look that I also felt suited the piece.  The result can be seen in the short clip, above.  I feel Aaron and Seth might have gone a little too far on the opening scene, smashing the highlights into oblivion, but it's still nice work.
