color corection

It is a combination of two things, Bleach Bypass and Digital Color Gradiing. The Bleach Bypass process in film is where they skip the bleaching process that takes the silver out of the developed film so the image stays grainy and has a high level of contast in it. Digital Color Grading is just using the computer to color instead of doing it chemically.

In afterfx you can either use a "Film Look" plugin like Magic Bullet, Cinelook, 55mm:

Just seach the web for a combination of "after effects", "film look" and "bleach bypass" and you will find a bunch of links to tuts and other stuff like that. Here are a few:
