Vexercise 5 check-in

[nu_breed]

Happy Saturday/Sunday everyone! How are you going with your colour/colour grading/lightbuilding vexercise?

If you've started already (or finished), are there things you're finding challenging? Satisfying? Both at once?

I ended up getting carried away with mine and accidentally ended up with a whole vid which I'm about to post.

It seems lightbuilding is a confusing concept for a bunch of folks and I would say it's really up for interpretation. In my mind it's using the lighting (natural or artificial) like you would use movement or graphic matching - letting the flow of it guide your editing choices. If anyone has more questions please ask! And/or if you're stuck with colour, let us know and we can chat about it :)

I have A Vid. I am not quite sure if it fulfills the challenge, though, since I went "Oh, I'll do a vid with a strong color scheme/aesthetic" which is not quite what the challenge is about, and my footage takes LUTs very badly. I did adjust the coloration in a few clips to match the rest, but that's about it.

I mean that's pretty much where I started too so I wouldn't say it isn't what the challenge is about necessarily, it's great you have a vid!
