For this video i had a strong vision of how i thought the video should look.
The band actually didn't like the idea at first.
So i took a few pictures of the location so they can vision it a bit better.
Few more conversations and they seemed to like it more and more. When we finally arrived at the location, they were hooked.
The band were so nice and easy to work with, which i love cuz the whole day feels less like I job.
I've done the speeded up song for singers to sing along with before but this singer nailed it perfect...pretty much all of it was in sync.
As for getting to the location...OH MY GOD.
Bit of a nightmare...the nearest place to park with the gear was a bit of a trip. Then you had to carry or roll all the stuff through sand and boy was it windy and cold.
Wind around sand isn't the best for camera gear...so i covered all my gear in cling film. Wind…

Grades of another Blackmagic Cinema Camera screen grab.
Originally shot by John Brawley. Downloaded from johnbrawley.wordpress.com
The grade called 'balanced' is the one to compare with John Brawley's own Resolve grade. I used scopes in Color Finesse (in After Effects) to balance the shot and clamped the highlights very slightly (to dampen down that window highlight in between the model's palm and face).
Overall my 'balanced' grade is cooler in temperature than John Brawleys. More my taste, not that keen on very warm or super saturated grades, I blame British weather. Probably went a bit too cool with it perhaps but not had a chance to check it on different monitors yet.
There are various other grades, some including 35mm grain. Don't have time to explain all of those.
One thing would like to try if I had more time would be to use secondaries to bring out the colours in her hair grips/rolls and eye makeup thing (no idea what it's called sorry).
Regarding the image quality. I like…
