Production Blog: Color Scales

 One more effort of editing from me was needed for this project. I was tasked with applying filters to the film.  For many of the clips, I looked through all the filters the editing software had to offer. In most clips I wanted to use a filter that made the picture darker to show the mood in the bank robbery scenes. For some clips it was difficult to find a good filter to express what i wanted to express from the filter into the film. I think I found the right filters though. I believe i utilized them correctly as well. I also had to adjust the color grading in the film. This was a confusing and sophisticated thing I had never done before. So I went to YouTube to learn. After some practice of some other videos, I was able to color grade my film. I strived towards making certain pictures more prominent and bright in the film to bring out the energy and intensity that a action film has to offer. Overall, this was a cool new skill i learned that i am proud of now being familiar with. Now the film is almost done and it feels like we just started!

Music Video Research Blog

My group is doing a music commercial. The genre is Alternate rock snyth-pop The music videos range from 3-5 minutes. We started the research by watching a range of music videos. There are multiple close up and far shots in all music videos. These shots help show the scenery as well as the singers facial expressions. The camera also has serval POVS and pans so we can see the scenery.  CLAMPS: The costumes seems to be cheap and your average clothes. There is nothing that makes these music videos pop out. The lighting defers from scene to scene as some is lit by the sun or perhaps lit by the city lights. The actors lip sing in some scenes and in others it plays over the background. Some props are used such as cars, bikes, food, drinks. There are several different settings. Throughout most of the music videos the main actors/singers are alone. SOUND: The sound will be the music in the video in the background. This kind of music has some mood changes that will change the mood in the vid...
