Day 2 - Editing
Today i have decided to start editing and creating the intro to the music video. This part is purly the narrative and will set the story for the entire music video. I will use dark defocus clips to resemble drunkenness, memory, depression and regret.
 |
| RGB Balance. This is one of the main colour correction effects I have used for all the intro clips. It allowed me to increase the deep dark blues in the image to reflect a dark and depressing mind set. |
 |
| I also used the 'Brightness and Contrast' tool through out the entire music video. I decreased the brightness and increased contrast to bring the actors out of the background. |
 |
| I also used image control to increase the highlights mid-tones and then decrease the blacks to again bring out only the important features of the clip. |
 |
| COlor Balance was used on the clips with Charlie looking at the ring. This allowed me to increase the Blue even more. |
I used two transitions through out the entire music video. Additive Dissolve was used when clips were layered on top of each other as it has a diffuse effect when it transitions. Cross dissolved was used when two clips were next to each other.
 |
| I started to realise that adding effects first would mean that every time I moved the clip I would have to render it over and over again. So i changed the render mode to Unlimited RT. |
 |
| I used the colour corrector wheel to give a Blue hue to the clips and the increased mid-tones and decreased blacks. |
 |
| I used the opacity settings in 'Motion' to layer clips on top of each other to make the video flow as it has to reflect the tempo of the music video. |
 |
| I used the Bad Film effect when the music gets louder at the beginning to show that it is a memory and that someone is reflecting on what happened. |
