I haven't listened to the Thiel interview yet but one thing I did find striking is the truly bizarre colour grading. you can see the original on the left and my 2-second correction on the right. you would be hard-pressed to grade this footage in a less flattering way, almost as if your explicit goal was to make the subjects look alien. blue casts are a non-starter for skin tones.

What about the interviewer angle or other interviews from the same interviewer? What are the colours? (I didn’t watch the full interview). The colour grading is definitely a choice in post.

it’s possible that the NYT is just incompetent and can’t grade their footage well, but only likely if this is consistent across several different interviews/guests
