Film/ TV2 – Analysis/ Reflection 5 #1

As per lecture –  in a sequence you’ve called ‘colour’ you will have clips that are indicative of a particular colour or lighting state. To the right of that clip you will have that same clip repeated 2 or more times with different colour grades on it. 

Take screen grabs of each clip then upload to your blog the series of stills that show us ‘before and afters’ of your colour grading. Provide a few different examples of at least two different clips – each with a description of what you did to the clip and why.

 I adjusted the colour temperature to a small degree of cooler level to make contrast the kitchen scene with the warmer tone in the dining area. I lowered the brightness as the ceramic wall in the before clip was slightly overexposed. I increased the contrast to make the bamboo baskets more prominent from other objects.

I used the Three-Way Colour Corrector by shifting the handle towards pink colour to neutralise the green cast in the background. The green tint makes the kitchen look rather unclean. I adjusted a little sharper contrast to remove the white mist like feeling in the before frame. The dumplings look undesirable dull and doesn’t look appetising. To enhance the colour of the dumplings, which should be kind of white in the clip, I used the white balance option in the Fast Color Corrector.  I clicked the eyedropper tool on the dumplings.
