Motion Tracking!

With the footage stabilized, I tracked the motion of the camera so I could parent the captures of the footage. I used Lightroom to capture the frames I wanted and then cut the person out within Photoshop. I similarly matched up scale and position, then overlaid the files onto the footage. With this I then could choose if the footage meets the pictures or the footage leaves a static image behind.

Soundtrack

Every video created needs a good soundtrack, I went searching and found a glitch-type experimental track licensed under the creative commons on Soundcloud!

Colour scheme!

I don't think that the burgundy colour scheme was working thus I switched it to a white background which has a slight vignette, Although this takes away from the fog within the background it is still visible when flying through 3D space. I had to change the colour of the droplets into black so that they showed up on the white background.

To Start!

The video I'm going to create to be viewed within my digital CV, is a short caption of a promotional video for the snow sports society LUSST. First thing I needed to do was choose what I was going to film, therefore I followed LUSST to Escape in Castleford. I had insurance from the Students Union in hand and had to sign media forms. I skied along side LUSST members thus to capture them skiing, and on features in the park. The features will play a big part in the after effects part of the video because I will edit it so that there are four of one person on a rail, this means I'll have to track motion and rotation so that the left back echo-shadows stay within the same place in the park.

Stabilizing motion is a must as well!

But first is first, and an animation will have to be created. I wanted to follow the conventions of snow sports videos such as Red Bull or a ski manufacturer. This meant the animation would have snow falling all the time with a fog effect in the background. I spoke to the commitee memebers of LUSST who were excited of the prospect of a video from the Escape trips, I was then informed of the logos I had to include for sponsor's.

I needed a colour scheme to follow, thus choosing LUSST's which is Burgundy and green-grey colour. Then I started rounding up the logo's
