VfXercise 1 drops!

[nu_breed]

Hi again all! So here’s the extra bonus challenge for this round, VfXercise 1.

We’ll keep these pretty simple and relatively open, so people can do them on different software platforms/with different tools. The challenge for this round is as follows:

VfXercise 1: 30 second edit comprised of 10 x 3-second shots, with at least one effect (like an LUT) applied throughout (on AE, through an adjustment layer)

Lola and I both tried this one out in advance, and it was fun! (Though we did discover that AE can be even more obsessive than Premiere, a dangerous realization :)

Here’s my example.

And here’s Lola's

Stay tuned for a separate post about VfX tech, tutorials, etc. which we can build as a resource list as we go. I’m imagining these VfXercises will be a lot about experimentation and exploration, and we can share what we discover with each one.

I ventured into using some of the other tabs in Davinci Resolve. I applied a LUT to the whole timeline and tried adding some color adjustment nodes to clips but didn't really know what I was doing. I also tried adding a preset effect and figured out how to resize clips in Fusion.

oooh this is so pretty! I feel like if you put this on tiktok, ppl would really like it <3 It's cool to see edits on fusion like this -- this makes me really want to try fusion to see what it can do!

Oh, thank you! I still have no idea how tiktok works but that's really nice. The resources posted have been so helpful for me to get started with fusion!
