I appreciate that many of these sample shots had a deep depth of field. Many "filmic look" videos on youtube focus too much on that element alone, as if a movie was just a showcase of nice unfocused backgrounds.

Location and costume is also another important aspect that brings out the characteristics of the film.

Gut gemachtes Video. Und endlich mal jemand der nicht so ein "machn ma in der post" Verfechter ist. Bravo!

Thanks Fenchel & Janisch I  have learned so much from you

Is it possible to know how you obtain the echo/delay video effect at 1:35, please?

[JoergPattiss]

imo grading is a two stage process - whatever you can enhance on set will make your live much easier in post.- so dont underestimate in-camera-settings & proper light setup.
