Editing tip from Andrea

After recent feedback from Andrea over the start of our edited music video, Andrea pointed out that different shots of the same scene see to have different brightness levels due to the angles we have been using and the position of the light. This caused continuity problems which were reflected in our editing feedback. An Example of this was the picnic scene date with the average guy and the pretty woman when looked back on after filming each shot had different shadows and shades of light.

To solve our continuity problem Andrea suggested increasing the brightness of each different shot. To apply this effect we had to highlight the desired footage and then click effects and then video filters to then apply the colour correcter from the colour correction tab. This then able to finely tune the brightness of the shot as well as the contrasts to create the lighting that suited the scene and could be easily recreated for every shot in that scene.
