Week 6 (Tue, 3 Oct 2023): Colour Correction

We learn about colour correction for this week. Usually when we shoot (especially using camera), the colour will remain original or sometime it looks "greyish" according to different models of camera and format of the video. Therefore, we should do some colour correction accordingly to brings emotion and feelings we want to give the audiences.

INSTRUCTIONS


Project 2A - Production Shoot

We go into 2 locations, the relax space of Taylor's Lakeside Campus and a playground nearby outside the campus.

I_5.0, Production shooting, week 5

I_5.1, Production shooting, week 5

After the shooting, we learn about colour correction in class. Then, we work on our own about the video. Using the video clips we shot, we are free to edit it in any style such as trailer, music video, parody or anything we like. Since it is a Japanese movie's parody, I decided to edit it looks like a Japanese style movie trailer.

I_6.0, Video editing, week 6

Japanese trailer usually loves to use text with background, with the background music of the theme song. I adjust the colour into pinkish colour (as it is a romance movie) and I choose a song that suit the theme.

Project 2B - TikTok Short Video

Since my timetable crash with most of my friends in this class, therefore I decided to do this project by myself.

I am thinking that making reels that similar like the Wes Anderson trend but in a different unique way. I am going to cut the scenes according to the beat of music and try to do colour correction with the Japanese greyish colour.

I took the footages by myself so it is not possible for me to "take picture of of myself working" XD

REFLECTIONS

Experience:

Another extra experience in shooting as we will learn different outcome from different position. It is the first time for me to become the actor.

Observations:

I am not good in acting because of my personality but I tried my best to,

Findings:

Production is not only requiring professional skills, team work is also extremely important in making the process smooth and efficient.
