Playing in the Rain
I shot some video of the family playing in the rain on Friday. Wasn't the most exciting footage ever, but the light was pretty interesting and presented some unique technical challenges with camera settings and color-correction. I went a little overboard with the filters, I know, but it was a test more than anything.

3) Really nice video Dave! What all filters did you use? Did you use a selective color filter for the first part of the video?

4) Thanks Denny. For the part with Mia, I did a 2-layer color correction. The first layer was to saturate everything with bright color. The second layer desaturated everything except the pinks. It takes awhile to deal with where the filter falls off and lets the pinks through, and it's not perfect. Did the same approach for the next shot that starts off with Ethan's shoes, but halfway that clip I brought back all the color via keyframes.

The rest of the clips just had one instance of Final Cut's Color Corrector filter on them.

6) Mia is getting soooooo big! Great video Dave.
I want to ride on Courtney's invisible gondola.

Is Ethan calling you by your first name? Because I think that's hilarious.
