Case Study (Utopia): How Utopia Got Its Comic Book Effect

In cinematography, most scenes are coloured with greens, blues and reds. In Utopia, the director Marc Mullen says he used the opposite with yellows, cyan and magentas.

Marc Munden & colourist Aidan Farrell carefully colour-corrected each shot in post production. They use a grading software known as Nucoda Film Master instead of brush or pen.

Season two had some changes to the post-production, where the set was changed to be pre-prepared for grading, the colourists were now able to make it more bolder being able to add more yellows, cyan and magentas.
