After inserting all the clips to the timeline, we were able to watch the entire music video run through. However, whilst doing so we did notice a few issues we wanted to address in order to:
-Make clips easier to see
-Ensure the colour/ lighting is consistent throughout
Image Control
One of the main issues we had with the film was the difference in colour between the all shots compared with the final scenes seen above. The colour was quite bright and orangey and so we used the 'image control' editing tool and reduced the saturation levels.
Brightness/ Contrast
The next problem we had noticed was that the shot seen above was darker than the others due to the camera facing the light window which meant the figures when in front of this light were slightly shadowed and hard to see. Consequently we used the 'brightness and contrast' tool to lighten the shot. By adjusting brightness we had to be careful not to make it dull and hard to see and therefore had to adjust contrast also in order to keep the two fairly balanced.
Gamma Correction
We discovered the gamma tool has a similar effect on the shots as the brightness adjust, making the shot brighter and so increased this slightly on the same shot as before, when Ellie walks through the front door.
Horizontal Flip
Lastly, I noticed that the picture Ellie burns, which is then shown in a flashback being taken, is flipped round because the iPhone screen shows a mirror image. Therefore the flashback did not link directly to the picture being burned as the two characters were shown in the reverse order on the screen. Using the 'horizontal flip' tool, we managed to flip this shot and so it flows much better.
