Film look

The film dust effect can be found in will start's clutter folder, just google "will start's clutter folder newschoolers" and browse the thread for Sklar's link. As for the colors, I don't know too much about color correction but it looks to me as if they shot a flat profile and boosted saturation a bit in post.
 
This is just a guess, but, maybe shot normally or flatitsh, do some sort of s curve in red and green channels, put a tiny amount of blue in the shadows.

Then you have to make it so the black point is lower, I believe that's how you'd call it. But basically get rid of any true blacks, and in doing so you'll get the lower contrast, faded look. If video has a curves adjustment, you'd take the curve for all channels and move the shadows part so it's not black, but try to kep the upper 2/3 of the curve normal. This is sometimes how I do digi shots. It's black and white, but I adjusted it so there was much less full blacks.

And I keep talking about curves, but I'm not sure video has curves so... May or may not apply.
 
I don't even know if I'd consider that a "film" look minus the fake film dust, it was just a warm flatter tone. Probably shot close to what the look was and then maybe tweaked a little in post.
