A Quick Spin

My first attempt at proper colour grading, and failing miserably, but hey, I'll get there. Canon 7D w/ 50mm 1.8 II and two shots with the kit 17-55 (no prizes for guessing which shots from the quality...) Backing sound including the bird song recorded with a rode video mic plugged into the 7D and carefully edited to remove gain noise

Dude, this is really, really good edited! Could be on mtv today! You should send a link to your vid to that musician who sings the song! I can't imagine he wouldn't be blown away!

Looks good man, colour grading is good as well nothing to over the top

Thanks dude

I was just guessing, but figured I shouldn't try anything overly drastic first time

I've learnt I need to be more anal about getting a consistent white balance whilst shooting as well!

Nice video man what settings was it made in,how did you get it so small??

Cheers dude, it was mostly shot in 1080p 24fps with the slow mo bits 720p 60fps, so standard 16:9 HD scaling! Then I just edited it down to a 2.35 scale in final cut and exported it out with a couple of tweaks so it didn't "letterbox" it

Rediculous aspect ratio.

Digital (Dec 31, 2011 at 9:27)

2.35 standard cinematic!

After this I had a feeling that I missed something becouse of that aspect ratio so i'd say that 16:9 or something like that would work better.
