Editing Part 2

For the main duration of editing I have been focussing upon trying to create an artisitic portrayal of my female artist, therefore in every single shot I have used a variety of visual effects to try and enhance her natural femininity. A common effect that I liked using was called 'Bad Film' which seemed to soften the entire footage with giving the shots a blurry effect  and also reducing the vibrancy of the colours - therefore providing many connotations of delicacy and gentleness. I also tried a similar effect called 'Bad TV' however this was not as successful because I felt that it distorted the footage too much by having a large band running throughout the shots which contradicted what I want to achieve - the effect was too harsh for what the footage is trying to represent. The effect 'Colour correction' I have used in every single shots because it allowed me to alter the composition of my shots with very little effort however it did produce dramatic results - for example one of the shots towards the beginning of the video I simply added an orange hue to the shot which emphasised the femininity of the female singer. However my only concern is that with the transitions in my video I have constantly used the 'additive dissolve' which I feel has become too obvious and not as effective because I have used it so much.
