Colour Grading

Several of the scenes in the piece had to be colour graded to do this I used the colour correction tools in final cut which I had not used before so this was a new experience for me but I think the end results were very successful

The first scene that I had to grade was the opening of the fridge which I adjusted the colour and exposure of as Ottilie was overexposed due to the harsh white light of the fridge

The next scene I changed was the shot immediately after the fridge where Ottilie walks through the party I took the first half of the scene in the kitchen and applied and exposure and colour filter to bring the lighting closer to that in the living room which made the transition between the two less annoying. I then added a cross fade between these two scenes so that the colour changed gradually rather than snapping back which was noticeable and looked terrible

Finally I graded some re-shot shots as these were filmed on a different cameras which I did not set up correctly and therefore needed to grade the footage to match earlier shooting

All of these changes can be seen between the third and fourth edits although some additional grading was placed on some scenes after a round of audience feedback
