Editing the music video (6) (Color grading and conventions)

 Today I color graded all the clips individually. The exposure and lighting in different clips were very dissimilar, so I couldn't just add a single Lumetri Color Preset on an adjustment layer laid over the whole sequence. Thereafter, I color graded each clip manually according to the vibe I was going for.

This is an example of how I edited one of the clips.




As researched before, conventionally comedic videos are color graded in a way to give a natural look. Therefore, I didn't add an extreme faded effect or saturate the colors of the video clips. However, I added subtle tints, such as the pink tint used in the Close-up shot of Sheece, to represent love/affection (following the romance genre).


 However, deviating from conventions, I added exaggerated tints in certain parts to give a comedic effect (and also to represent feeling scared or shocked).

Sorrow ( music video practice)

It's always fun to use extreme angles. The aerial shot and subtle rotating effect make the starting video clip perfect for an opening.  Black and white can give a very sophisticated and posh vibe. I played around at the end by pouring colour into the black and white video. This was achieved by using colour key effect, by changing its intensity to gradually remove the black and white clip to reveal a coloured version of the same clip from beneath the former clip.  The Audio was recorded in an empty room to avoid adulteration by unwanted noise. It was then synchronized manually with the video clips in adobe premiere. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KaVn-w1Bqo&index=1&list=UUBVo4p1Q5cynkCNEFUs8xwg
