This is the final video in premiere, I added a colour grade which I think suits it and some sharpen and rendered it h.264 50kmps because I wanted crisp quality

[oscarmusicvid]

For this shot I timewarped it and added the mirror effect to it as this was on the deadline day so I couldn’t do too much

[oscarmusicvid]

To get the matte of the branches I motion tracked the shot and then would create a solid in 3d space, move the position to a null close to it on the tracker and do a mask of a section of the branch and then keyframe the mask in the beginning and end and repeated this process, I then overlayed a few things over the top of this although I sped the shot up afterwards so it is hard to see the individual bits, but there were some green lines going down, some glitch overlay that I downloaded since I didn’t have much time and also a fractal noise texture I created. I shouldn’t have retimed the video as now this shot doesn’t look very good

[oscarmusicvid]

for this shot I was running out of time so I did a faint ripple in the middle, and a kaleida effect motion tracked to it, I rotated it on the beat although it still doesn’t look very smooth

[oscarmusicvid]

I had to track this shot in boujou as after effects wouldn’t generate trackpoints on the ivy

[oscarmusicvid]

for this shot I am going to animate the ink dye to the music by converting it to audio keyframes, I tried this but the expression is wrong even though it was exactly the same so I’m not going to waste time working out what’s wrong with it

[oscarmusicvid]

This shot looked very shaky so I have timewarped it to 50 percent speed and warp stabalized it to make it very smooth and now Im going to redo the effects to make it better

[oscarmusicvid]

For these two shots I have added cc light rays to make the sun twinkle more to match the music

[oscarmusicvid]

For the next shot I have done the same as the previous but used luma key to get it only on the white water

[oscarmusicvid]

For this shot I downloaded an image of some lines, I have then offset the image a lot to give the lines movement and then have added echo and radial blur which has given it a really nice effect, I have subtly motion tracked this into the footage and am pleased with how it looks

[oscarmusicvid]

For the last clip I have added a checkerboard and displaced it,  then matted it so that it fades off further away

[oscarmusicvid]

For the third clip I have done a sky replacement, added a lightwrap and added a subtle overlay in the sky using fractal noise

[oscarmusicvid]

for the second clip I have added  the hextile effect to make it into hexagons which I think subtly suits the shot

[oscarmusicvid]

on the first cli p I have motion tracked in a ink dye with some fast turbulant displace on it to make the water look like it has something pulsating in it and added a black edge to the water because its a bit bright

[oscarmusicvid]

I did a few different shoots for the music video. The first shoot I went to brecon beacon and got some clips but a lot of them were landscapes which wasn’t as abstract as I wanted, I then went there again to get a few more water shots befoee it got dark and then the rest I fimed in bute park where I got some water shots, trees and general greenery 

[oscarmusicvid]

I have been converting all the shots I want to use to dpx’s beause the colours are far easier to grade afterwards and it makes the quality of the shots far higher which, since it wasn’t shot on a very good camera, helps a lot

[oscarmusicvid]

For the effect on this shot I added another ink dye overlay That I’ve made and  slowed it down, warped it and colour balanced it, For the second part I have added cc mr mercury to get the bubble effect, I messed about with some other stuff with it but it didnt look good
