hi, im trying to get a kind of 80's childrens TV look to a video.

I think it's done quite well in this video with the oclours and all:







just wondering if anyone could give me any tips on achieving this?

thanks,
Lloyd

Shoot 30fps (29.97 not 24 or 30p). Use lots of ceiling mounted or high angle, diffused light on all sides (flat lighting), keep a wide depth of field so everything's in focus.

Make a very colorful set, but desaturate it a bit in post. Get a good hair stylist to do really bad hair, a turtle neck sweater might help!
Actually finding an old tube camera would really do it!

Good luck on doing bad well!
