[DF] Editing Example 23/11/11


The editing techniques used here are image control and brightness and contrast settings. These allow us to alter aspects of the image such as hue, saturation, brightness and contrast. By doing this, we can change the mood or the tone of the film, or simply bring out colours more.

In this case specifically we changed the settings in order to bring out the colour of the T-shirts, making them more vivid and prominent in the shot. The image also looked somewhat grey and washed, so we also did it to make it look more colourful and lively.

The shot itself is a long shot of the band standing on a set of outside stairs. This is part of a stop motion sequence in which jump cuts are used as the band descends. We wanted the most stand-out part of the shot to be the coloured T-shirts, as they move around with each consecutive step.
