Pitch 12: Post Production (Lily)

Hey,

Experimenting in PostProduction

In Paramore's music video for their song 'Brick by Brick' they used a highly saturated colour scheme that really brings out the natural colours of autumn, which is a exaggerated effect to the one we want to create towards the end of our video. Although not as strong as Paramore did, we can do this in post production by adding filters or editing the saturation and colours of the original footage before adding it to the sequence.

 I tried testing out some of the saturation and selective colouring tools in Photoshop, this is a example of my experimentation with one of the photos I took of a potential location.

We want to have roughly at least 5-6 base tracks, excluding repeated takes in the same location. 

1st - Tracking shot of our artist, varying from a mid shot to mid close ups.

2nd- is a high angle shot looking down at the artist standing at the top of the steps in the Olympic park. 

3rd- Close of artist expression, surrounded by leaves.

4th- Low angle shot of dancers on a hill.

5th- Same dancers different location

6th- Shallow depth of focus, slightly lower angle, artist in 1/3 of the frame.

We want to introduce the sequence in slow motion, returning to real time when the lyrics starts, also at certain key points during the sequence. Such as during some of the dancing base tracks, and when the beat of the music slows down.
