After matching correctly the lip-syncing, we started to think about how to make our base tracks look nicer. A simple way of doing this was using the colour correction tool. We improved our lighting changing the 'white' levels, as well as we opted to use tones of blue and cyan more, to make the image look colder. This effect fits with the emotions of our song that express some isolation and sadness. The following video was recorded during this process of changing the colour correction and we were discussing our opinions about how it looked.
It made a big difference to our base tracks as you can see the contrast in the images below.
What we are planning to do next is to decide what footage we want to use in between the base tracks and where. Because we have so many base tracks and there is a change of costume and a change of period (day and night), we have to think carefully about how we are going to deal with this in our post-production process.
Besides the base tracks, the rest of our footage includes shots of lots of people walking; traffic; Ray Jones (Nimar) walking around the city; Big Ben; fast singing to use as slow motion; extra bits of Ray Jones singing and some camera movement experiments; etc.
