Our project




A screen shot of our editing in FinalCut...LAYERS WHOOP

There is three layers to this piece of the video. The first is the stop-motion layer of ducks. Here this layer has been colour corrected: the saturation has been put up and the colours have been changed to give a brighter more interesting background. The next layer is again stop-motion. The origami bird footage was first colour corrected, having its saturation heightened, this made it easier to do the next step which was to green screen this footage. The top layer is footage of James lip-syncing. This footage was colour corrected (again for saturation) and then green screened over the other two layers. It also had to be lip-synced before the audio track attached to it was removed. This final layer also has a posterized effect on it.
