Humorous Commercial

Or I think so anyway.

commercial.mov; Quicktime file, 6 mb

The main reason for doing this was to let my friend, Jon, get used to working my camera. This is the first time he's ever touched it, so he didn't do too bad. We're trying to build up a modest portfolio, do you think it's good enough to make the cut?

I came up with the concept (with a little help from my dad), and Jon and I both came up with the general shots.

He was really busy today, so when we finally were able to shoot, the sun was going down and the lighting kept changing as we shot, which was really frustrating. Tried to match it up in post....it's ok. Not good or great.

I need more practice setting up the color in camera.

Anyways, crits are appreciated. If you have only bad things to say, that's cool, I'd rather have 10 pages of bad stuff than no replies.

hehe pretty funny. The only thing i would say is it looks very videoish. I am pretty sure it was shot in 24p, but i would take more time in post'ing it, reason being because some CC might be the key to adding more flavor to the video. Ill have a little play with it myself now and see what i can come up with.

great vid tho. Almost makes the cut i think

I'm having a lot of trouble making it look ok in Vegas for some reason. I can do a better job in photoshop; I'll keep messing with it though. I'd appreciate any tips on CC you could give. :)

I upped a new version (see my OP). Is it any better? It's close to what you did, just not so blown out (thanks btw :) ).
 
nice, i like it alot more. You have to go back one more time and colour correct that split second shot as he drops the stereo. :)
