In today's lesson, although only having just 20 minutes as we went out to shoot in Grosvenor Park, I began uploading the footage to the D drive of the computer, ready to be transferred into our project for tomorrows lesson.
I then began experimenting with after effects, this is because originally we had planned to add grayscale filters to our footage to reflect fairly sad and dull mood of our main character in the video. I added these filters to most of the shots from the first 35 seconds of our video and rendered the footage after adding the effects to increase the quality of each shot. In my opinion the filters match very well with the emotions of the song, with the footage and the lighting of each shot added to the timeline so far. The picture shows an example of one of the shots with the after effects added as well as the option of after effects I used, called color pass which gives this black and white style look to each shot.
The next picture shows an example of one of the shots we did not add these filters to. This is because the main use of the filters is to represent how upset the main character is feeling now that his brother is gone. We are not placing filters on the flashback shots where both brothers are shown together as it provides a comparison between his dull, mournful feelings at the current time as his brother is no longer with him to the bright, happy feelings he has when his brother was by his side with him.

Excellent work, if you having problems resizing the images for blogger you could consider presenting subsequent posts in a different format, say prezi or ppt and then slideshare
