Leonardo Thaci Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 After feeling uninspired with my footage I shot around my city, it was time for a spontaneous trip with my childhood buddy. It was a 60-minute drive into the small mountain range in northern Bavaria. Immediately, after letting the last village behind us, the fog got thicker and thicker. We found a nice spot to park and went into the forest. It was beautiful. I just wanted to shoot some footage for my portfolio, but this short sequence came out of it. The footage was color-graded with Filmconvert Nitrate and small adjustments I made. It looked pretty fantastic right out of the box! I haven't recorded any audio, so my next job to do was music and sound design. I found the soundtrack and effects on Epidemic Sound. Timing and mixing the sound effects turned out to be the hardest part. I haven't done it often enough to be completely comfortable with it. But I think it turned out to work pretty well. So, don't be afraid to take your best buddy and shoot some amazing footage in your area. I could not believe how pretty and "cinematic" it looked so near to my hometown. Feedback is always welcomed. Cheers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Andersson Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 I feel you. Fog + forests = magic, wherever you are ? Did it look as blue to your eye as it did in the edit? My forest mists is usually very green. It depends on the forest too i suppose. Il attach a frame from a shoot this fall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonardo Thaci Posted April 11, 2021 Author Share Posted April 11, 2021 It did not look as blue as it is now. I tried to color-grade it that way to shape the look of it. Regarding your picture: That's a very nice and moody look (and almost the same jacket I think :D). What was this shoot for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Andersson Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 It was actually from a photoshoot for the company the jacket is from :) Its called Tuxer, but i guess a lot of companies make similar ones :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
