MUSIC VIDEO: Bijaan - "Perfect"

[jashan17]

Hey guys! Haven't actually gotten around to making an account on this forum until now but I do come here a lot! Here's our latest music video:

We shot this on a 550d running magic lantern firmware, a flycam nano, shoulder mount, DIY dolly, 50mm 1.8, Helios 44-2, and a Vivitar 28mm 2.5. It took around a week for the whole production.

Here's the previous music video we shot for the same artist:

Tell us what you think! :cheesy:

I don't think the 'flm damage' works with the image of the 'chained up' sequences. I think you should have gone with a definite B&W, and added some 'film grain' effect, along with some streaking film damage effects. The 'lint' just sort of got in the way. And I think the lighting could have been much more dramatic.

The second one seems a bit under exposed for me. With dark complexion and 'low light' it sometimes is difficult to maintain detail in the 'shadow areas'. I probably would have had the fellow wear a lighter coat.

Yeah the first music video that we shot for him (second link) was shot on an HV40 with Jag35pro 35mm adapter and I didn't know much about color grading and lighting back then. Thanks for the input!
