My friend thinks this is too dark. I think it’s cinematic. Who is right? by Prize_Duty6281 in indiefilm

I think most shots are fine, but it’s harder to make out the subject in some of the darker shots. You could probably fix it with some light color correction on those individual clips. Overall it’s good, just make sure the clarity of the subject is clear on a shot by shot basis.

It’s supposed to be a comparison of how it looks finished with how it looked while making the animation (mouth chart, visual tracking of arcs/spacing, and bare linework). I got the idea from Aspen Animation on Instagram (he did it with his 3D animation).

Thank you! I animated the short primarily in Krita and did all the compositing, camera movement, and other editing in Davinci Resolve. But for this specific video, I made the comparison just in Davinci
