Effects I have used during post production

Over the last few weeks I have been using Adobe Premiere Pro to edit my film sequence together, I have found myself experimenting with several different effects that I did not initially intend to use when I first set about planning it all out. The experimentation has definitely proved to be beneficial, as it has given me many new ideas as to how I should portray the character and the events shown.

With the various interior/exterior house shots I have filmed, I have experimented with colour tints mainly. More specifically, I have been using blue and red tints. The Media and Film technician was helping me out with the editing as I wanted to create a thunder effect with flashing blue tints, which was achieved by going onto Project > new > colour matte. The user can then adjust the colour and shade of the clip, and drag it on top of a clip in the workspace, and adjust its transparency to give the existing shot a different colour tint. This is effective, as the use of this weather is a pathetic fallacy, with a storm reflecting a dark, frightened mood. The colour red was also a good choice as it connotes danger and blood. I later decided that I could use the same feature to enchance my music video.
