    Very nice. I like the 'Gothic look'. All done in Vegas?
  • DarienX plus 1 year ago
    Yes all in vegas, i want the magic bullet program but i have a free version and it's very very slow to render, so i play with normal editing with brightness, contrast and color, i'm still practicing, this was a "bright gothic" and then i'm going to test the more darker gothic. I know that not only depends on post editing, but depends a lot in the lightning also.

    Some of this is very nice and I kept hoping she would lip synch to the music to get a better 'feel' for what you are acheiving!
    The only thing i would suggest from a creative point of view is watch the areas under the model's eyes, some harsh shadows appearing.
    This could actually work in your favour if the people in the music video have a little eye shadow UNDER the eyes as well as on the eyelids, it should really enhance the Gothic style beautifully.
    Great work! looking forwards to seeing the video

    Thanks for your comments, i did notice that shadows under the eyes, but i couldn't do anything because i was in outdoor, just natural light and i didn't have a reflector, that's why i tell the model to keep looking up!. But i am hoping to have better light manipulation when i will do the videoclip.

    Nice one. Like I say, cold work to your advantage in the final edit. You're a lucky guy to be working with such a beautiful model too! It's going to look great

    Nice effect. Grading well has never been a strong point of mine so kudos for that. :)
    I did notice the camera would go in and out of focus in some shots and was curious if that was a desired effect or a bad autofocus (like at 1:10). I'm considering buying this camera so I'm curious.
  • DarienX plus 1 year ago
    yes i t was a desired effect to see how much depth of field can be noticed, the focus are made manually, when you use the letus you can't use the autofocus from the camera.

    woww that letus adapter looks awesome im considering getting one instead of the merlin steadicam what would you recomend?

  • DarienX plus 1 year ago
    I think it all depends on your use and likes, if you move a lot with the camera and like dinamics shots i will recomend the merlin steadicam, but if you are more a "still" person and likes very specifics angles and depth of field, go for the letus
