    Long ago, I read an amusing tirade against the use of 'Teal and Orange' split-toning used by colorists typically in horror movies:

    shootandcut.wordpress.com/2013/01/01/teal-and-orange-hollywood-please-stop-the-madness/

    Stolen from that link:

    shootandcut.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/wolfman1.jpg

    I believe that the Actor above is related to the original Lon Chaney in the original Wolf-man movie. Son or grandson?

    More:

    Anyone here do split-toning, not necessarily Teal and Orange? Or even triple-toning with some intermediate color in the mid-tones?

    My daughter looked at this shot and said, "Ah ha, I see you've started to use the "Teal and Orange" process ",
    but,...
    This shot came out of camera more or less "Teal and Orange" without me having to do any special processing ;-)
    The light blue robes of the monks and the orange lighting in the tea house, created that "Movie atmosphere in South Korea" all by itself :-)

    Yes - as mentioned in the Color-Combinations thread I do use teal & orange a lot and usually not the very subtle version:

    It may be overused in movies (I haven't watched any in years), but I think there's a good reason for its popularity. It just is very effective and it seems relatively easy to achieve decent results with it!

    ( perhaps more grey than teal, but it is in the right direction and a rather calming colour! )

    Not intentionally, but it sometimes happens (well, not exactly teal, but not so far) (sorry for some other PP effects, colors at least are real):

    Was thinking more of processing deliberately applied a la movie colorist, e.g. a quick exaggerated demo:

    musicians.jpg

    Processed in the GIMP using layers and luminosity masks ...

    An image I posted two months ago:

    sunset.jpg

    It came teal and orange naturally.

    Wonderful capture! Reminds me of the movie "Waltz with Bashir"... even though the color and feel there is quite different.
