COLOUR GRADE 1
This was the first colour grade I tried. It reminded me of editing instagram pictures which is a fine art. Unfortunately I found the preview screen really hard to notice effects and changes on because it was so small. I used the RGB chart to change these which is why I ended up with that extreme black and yellow image. In the end I was playing around with saturation and tried to make a homage to Didge’s death sequence in Neighbours; the most oversaturated clip I can remember. It’s the last…. day on earth… in my dreams dreams dreams……
COLOUR GRADE 2
I used the saturation sphere tool to change the colours here. I like a bit of warmth in this because the locker rooms, as beautiful as they are, have a really harsh, cold flourescent light which I’ve warmed up in the second image. The third one was too blue and I’m not a fan, and the final image is where I tried to recreate the lighting in Chopper or Undferbelly which I’ve been rewatching. Green = drug den. Blue = cops talking about a case. Red = sexy scene.
COLOUR GRADE 3
We’re very adamant about using the amazing lighting already provided in the bowls club, however through colour grading we can really play with the tone of the images. I love the deep blues I can pull out of this scene. I’m still not very experienced with this but if I can make it less saturated but still pull those vibrant colours I would be super satisfied.
