Anyways, since I finished my video clips yesterday (I am still very great full mother) now it is time to continue my editing. Whoopies, did I use that correctly? Is "whoopies" even an expression that is still used anymore? Back on track Duke (if I had a penny for every time I wrote that, I'd have more than one).
So, editing is not my favorite, I have come to realize. I have to manually do many things, per this is how work would do. Rah! I ain't even getting paid! Back on track Duke. I am going to section this out into tiny little areas on how this was done.
1. Filter Section
Remember me complaining about my filter issues, I am still going to do that. I have to manually change the temperature and saturation, so it is not the same look throughout each shot. I confirmed with my mother, but she does not see the difference. There is only so much I can do, sadly. Now that I finished this part, the only real difference between warm and cool tones was the fact that the ending of my introduction. I changed the warm tone to a cooler tone
2. Video Time and Sound
Remember how I went over the time limit, I had to cross out a ton of video cuts. So, you will not actually meet Ma as a character. The only time she is referenced is in the "family photo" with all the mother's side of the family minus Mallory (I found that photo and precariously placed it in a while filming) and when Mallory actually seeks out her mother at the end. (I feel like this movie would be a very slow movie to watch-woops).
A minor mention of the sound is that I had to boost just about every shot up in the overall sound so you could actually hear the character speaking, even if in slight mumble to herself.
3. Credits
The credits are pretty much the best thing I am doing right now. Though some look awkward, it fits in right enough for me. The only issue I am currently debating is the color of my text. I like the title, it is supposed to be colorful and happy, being atop the brownie like the sprinkles. That is not my concern though, the rest of the credits' color is freaking me out a little bit. I want it to be pink, much like Mallory's dress, but I had to make it darker so you can actually read it. That color is throwing me off, but I cannot find another one. I will give an update if I change it, but 50/50 if I actually do that while I tweak everything.
Now, this ends me off with the phase of tweaking just about anything I want until I feel like I am finished. All tweak which I will try to tell all of you about. Anyways, have a good-day/evening/night!
