Editing Garden Art 2

The First thing i wanted to do was to create a cut out logo with video behind for this project. i tried various way such as using text mask in after effects which i learned how to do from this video: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/short-and-suite/making-text-masks-in-after-effects/
But after trying that i felt that the text wasn't as crisp as i would have liked so i decided to chroma key the text out and place the text on the layer on top of the video. (i created the text in photoshop to make colour keying easier).
Below are 3 different logos i tried.

The next thing i did was to colour correct the video using RGB curves. i like to colour correct using RGB curves as i feel i have more control over the colours. This meant i could make the sky bluer and the trees greener making them stand out more and look more clear as can be seen in the pictures below.

After completing the colour correction i then re watched the video changing a few minor parts and then exported and uploaded the video which you can see in a previous post.

Filming Drama

Got up at 6am this morning to prepare for filming my drama as part of my course.
I am using a cast and crew of 4 people and filming it over 3 separate days. I am using my Canon D600 for most shots and  my GoPro camera with head, chest and wrist attachments.
I filmed the whole first scene of my Drama and have collected some very good shots although I may have to return to the location to get some more establishing shots of the location.
