Planning: Video Effects

I decided to mess around with the effects in Adobe Premier Pro so that when I come to edit my own music video I can incorporate the effects I like.

You can find the 'Effects' tab at the bottom left-hand corner. Then go into 'Video Effects'. You can view the selected effect on a clip by dragging it on to the clip.

I wanted to add a coloured tints to the clips in my music video so I selected 'Fast Color Corrector'.

I used the colour wheel in 'Effect Controls' to select an orange tint to create a sense of an older, retro era.

Here you can see on the right, the original clip and on the left the added effect.

This clip was too warm toned to match the rest of the clips in my sequence.

Therefore I used the 'Fast Color Correction' again and went into the 'Effect Controls' tab to decrease the level of saturation.

This effect resulted in a less orange toned clip which was much more similar to the rest.
