When editing our film i disided to apply some previous skills i had learned. I used the colour correction tool and the contrast/brightness levels to alter the apearence of our footage to create a more sinister looking lighting.
The tool used is video effect > colour balance > video effects
I also had to change the exposure as when i filmed this scene below the exposure was too high and created the clip to seem grainy but by turning the exposure down creates the scene to be more sharp than it previously was.
I then needed to apply the previous settings of the last frame to the next so it runs smoothly,this turned out well and i was pleased with the outcome and so was my group but gee suggested we should make it look more sinister and cold by adding a blue filter to the scene. I turned the blue highlights and midtones up by 5% and kept these settings throughout the scene with the other shots.
By applying these changes to out footage instead of keeping it raw alloud us to refrained from having high key lighting and over exposed footage that comes across as bright and creates the feeling of happiness but with the settings used contributed to our horror/thriller movie, Also from our groups research we could see how low key lightning is widely used in thrillers as this technique relies on one light source "it may cast light over one object whilst leaving others in darkness/shadows." Which we did with our opening scene with a lED light shining down on daisy.
