Hello again everybody!

Some of you might remember me from last November when I was looking for critical feedback on a short zombie movie I made called "Zombie Apocalypse."

Again, thank you all of you who left great criticisms. I really learned a lot and I hope to apply it to my next narrative short film I make.

Anyway, since then I've completed editing a music video that was originally filmed last July. It was shot almost entirely against green fabric stapled to the walls in a dance studio.

I was wondering if those of you with experience with music videos could offer some tips/advice/criticisms etc as its something I'd like to do more of in the future with hopefully better equipment and a higher budget.

Anyway, here is the link!

I didnt turned on the sound so i didnt heard music but this kind of videos i saw back in the 97 ,cheesy pop-dance videos with boysbands ,if this is what you wanted to achieve then you got it.
What i didnt liked was CC of his face, its reddish red with orange and looks distorted ,computer equipment looks like from 80s.

Haha yeah I was going for some cheese.

As for the bluriness factor, I noticed that too, I'm not sure how to get around it and I think a part of it may be due to the keying out of the green fabric tools I was using. There's this blur option to reduce jaggies, so I guess its a balance issue. Something I'll definitely need more practise with in the future.

The tools I used for keying out was the stock adobe premiere pro tools, specifically that "colour key" option if any of you guys are familiar with it.

We also overexposed the faces and didn't light it properly too when it was filmed, shadows galore so that probably contributed to some of the funkyness in keying out.

And I'm happy you think the computers look like they are indeed from the 1980s!

I was trying to make them feel like they were from 1980s science fiction films :P
