| In his 60 Minutes profile, Nolan shows how The Odyssey was color corrected optically https://youtu.be/1GEqDZ3hQSo?si=8AP4TI9iY9otLrjM&t=271
I had the same question. I wondered why seeing a 70mm print was supposed to matter if it was going to get digitally edited and color graded anyhow. The answer turned out to be that neither of my speculations were true. |

| I thought I saw a video showing they were color-grading The Odyssey in analog using old style color filters? edit, this user found the video: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49127489 |

| Not every film. It was widely reported that Oppenheimer was color graded photochemically, and the 65mm film physically spliced (the editor of course worked in Avid with digital film scans). This means that 70 mm screenings were projecting a fully analog end-to-end pipeline. The exception, of course, is the visual effects shots, which went through a digital intermediary. The same seems to be true of The Odyssey, although the reporting is less clear as of now, and I suspect there are many more visual effects shots than Oppenheimer. |

There was a DI colourist in the colour department and the editorial had a digital conform team and a colourist. I'm sure there was some photochemcial fiddling. but it was all conformed digitally and lasered out to be finished. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15398776/fullcredits/?ref_=tt_c... Photochemical grading is hard and really sucks compared to DI. especially if you are trying to put in a butt tone of VFX. |

| Sad. A little more cheap colour correction and grading and we'll be back to b&w movies. |
