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.

Ooh, i love this, it has such a stylish vibe!! It is tricky to just apply one LUT, but yes, I think it creates such a cohesive feel at the same time. I often do that, and then go in and just lighten/adjust the clips that need it.
I do feel the 3 second shot sets a good base, but yeah, it's hard to stick too, and can always benefit from a bit of tweaking.
I think I need to watch Ultimate Note.
