Jonny Elwyn Film Editor is a great resource for Video Editing, Assistant Editing and Color Correction

 

I ran into this site when looking for a post on using the Stream Deck for video production (I will be doing a future post about the Stream Deck as I got one for Christmas and am just loving it), this is the home page of Film Editor Jonny Elwyn. 

Really this site is well worth a long delve into and read, and they are not just short posts, but well thought out and researched. This is a really great site that you should subscribe to and read through when you have a chance.

He has hardware recommendations, free luts and links, and there isn’t a short or useless article in the bunch.

Do yourself a favor and check it out.

DJI Osmo+ Test Footage at Huntington Garden

I shot some more test footage with my DJI OSMO+ at Huntington Gardens in San Marino, CA. It was shot manually with Sharpness at 0, Saturation -2 and Contrast -2. It has a split screen as shot and color corrected on the other side. It was not shot with the Z-axis so you can certainly see the less stabilization, but I still think it works.

DJI Osmo+ Test Footage at Stony Point, and Color Correction

This is some test footage with my DJI Osmo+ at Stony Point Park. It was shot with auto exposure as I have yet to get any ND filters to stop own the exposure. And the first shot was wrongly white balanced. It was shot with D-Log, Sharpness 0,  Saturation -2 and Contrast -2.

This is the color corrected shot.

This is a comparison as shot and color corrected.

Color Correction Test with DJI OSMO+, Canon 60D and iPhone 6S and Visual Effects of Gun Shots

I shot some test footage with 3 of my cameras, my DJI OSMO+ my Canon 60D and my iPhone 6S. I color corrected the footage using DaVinci Resolve 12.5 and did the Visual Effects in Adobe After Effects.

The visual effects include adding the gun shots, light flashes, and color correcting the orange tip of my gun so it is gray.

I was trying to show my ability to color match the footage from such different 3 cameras, as well as add the visual effects to make an interesting little sequence.

Let me know what you think!

OXFAM “I Hear You” Campaign that I onlined and localized!

So I already posted the Vanity Fair link, which has 6 of the videos, but the rest of the videos are up.

This campaign is about interviews with Syrian Refugees, with Celebrities reading their stories.

First off here is an article on Julie Ann Robinson and the I Hear You, Kelly’s boss who created the campaign over at Oxfam.

And you can view the other 9 videos at OXFAM America’s YouTube Channel.




An amazing campaign and I am really glad that I got to be a part of it.

Check out the OXFAM and Vanity Fair “I Hear You” Campaign that I Onlined and Localized in my home Editing Bay. This Campaign was done by wife’s boss Julie Anne Robinson, and is pretty amazing. Really worth checking out.

There are actually more videos than this for OXFAM USA, and then subtitled versions for various OXFAM’s around the world!
