Been a while since I posted something here, I hope to change that soon and contribute a little more.
Today I was going through some files doing a small cleanup and found my original files for “Sabor a Mi” a lovely romantic latin piece.
“Sabor a Mi” was also my first attempt at a multi-cam green screen, and setting that up again was a blast to complete. I remember how much of a headache it was to make, we're talking hours and hours of testing and playing. This was not the case this time. I completely changed my normal flow and rendered a huge 225gb base file that was going to be my working template. After that creating the file 4k file with beginning and end was very fast and simple and the final render was under 15 minutes… impressive! I also improved the quality of the sound, nailing my post processing such that it was at maximum permitted volume without letting YouTube's compression algorithm touch it, the key being the 0.0db correction, and with the knowledge I have now, will be able to easily reproduce this in all my videos moving forward.
I worked on trying to make the video a little more visually animated and even re-introduced a little shock in the form of the video going completely black and slowly fading in to match the flow of the song. I think the most interesting part of the process was trying to think like a story teller.
Here is the result of those couple hours of work:
So, did I succeed or fail the tasks of visual story telling, video quality and sound quality, and where do you feel I could have changed or improved anything?
EDIT: OK, won't hide it, but I did introduce a small error on purpose.
Thanks!
