How is that you grade something filmed during the daytime to look like it was captured at night?

Ever wished you could achieve that same mysterious atmosphere in your own projects? If so, you've landed on the right video.

In this tutorial, we dissect the magic of turning daylight into moonlight - a technique often utilized in big-budget films to create strikingly realistic night scenes.

This technique has been beautifully illustrated in movies like 'Nope' by acclaimed director Jordan Peele, and Robert Zemeckis’ classic 'Cast Away.'

We break down this process into 4 steps in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro.

Whether you're a novice filmmaker or a seasoned professional, understanding how to use this technique effectively can drastically enhance your visuals, adding depth and an immersive atmosphere to your storytelling.
