I used After Effects to colour correct my final piece. Firstly I created an adjustment layer and applied all the effects to that layer as it gives you more freedom. I used curves to make the blacks more pronounced and also lowered the white to make the image overall more dark and creepy, fitting with the tone of a thriller. I then heightened the blue levels to give a subtle film look. Look below for a before and after colour correction. Overall the colour correction is an effective way to make your low budget movie look and feel more professional.

| After - Notice the subtle hint of blue in the image. |

| Before - Bland and unimaginative. |
