I dont usually get to worked up over some grabs but I have to say these are solid. The comps look very thought out and your use of Color Correction is very professional. Nice work and I look forward to seeing the fiinished piece.

Something about the sharpness and the coloring give it this sureal look that I would think that this wasn't taken by a camera but created in a 3D program. The still are really amazing, I'd love to see them in motion.
 
Re: Music Video Location Stills

Wow, thanks guys. This is the first time I post stuff here. Thanks for the encouraging feedback. I will post the video in about 1 week and a half.

I love my Panasonic and DVX user!
 
Re: Music Video Location Stills

love that first pic of the overpass. looks like something out of akira or ghost in the shell. great angles...whens the video expected?
 
Re: Music Video Location Stills

Fulll video should post here in about a week and a half. Can't wait to see it in motion as well. I'm going for that Mark Romanek look and feel. He is my favorite music video director. I also love Anonymous Content stuff as well.

Funny you guys mentioned the Akira reference. That is my favorite cartoon ever. Never get tired of watching that thing. So much detail and awesome production design.
 
Re: Music Video Location Stills

I'd love to know the settings on your color correction. I'm not a colorist, but I'd really like to know how to even get close to this.

Thanks

i love the lines and curves of it all. Very deep in perspective that has the ability to make someone look really large or really minute.
 
Re: Music Video Location Stills

Romanek does good stuff. do you have a video in mind of his that you are referencing at all?

i love the jagger "god gave me everything i want" video he did. and the lenny kravitz "if you can't say no video".

good luck with the shoot.

Captm. - I used the Color Correction effect from my Eureka folder of effects. - Red Tolerance 50, Red Amount 50, Green Tolerance 50, Green amount 64, BLue Tolerance 52, Blue Amount 31 (left the silk settings alone), Birghtness and Contrast settings = Brightness 1, Contrast 12, Desaturation settings=46. Of course you may have to tweak according to your exposure, hot spots etc. But a combination of these 3 always give me some nice eye candy.

In camera settings= F5 (24p), 0 all the way down, except for master pedal at -3. (I love rich blacks)

Richlee- My favorite Romanek video is "Hurt" for Johnny Cash. I also enjoyed his Jay-z 99 problems vid as well. I will be using the 99 problems vid as inspiration for my visual treatments.
