As part of my lighting class's final project, I decided to shoot a short example commercial for the upcoming Lindy Hop workshop weekend Inspiration Weekend in Orange County, CA. I got a small group of people together, some who could dance as well, and shot a few minutes of video.
The third and final cut of the footage, using all three cameras and color corrected to amazing glory.
I had set up 3 cameras and had so much footage, I couldn't really decide how I wanted to cut it all together, so I made multiple cuts, trying to use as much of the footage as possible.
One cut of the footage, using only footage from the Sony FS-100
Second cut, using more of the Canon 7D footage
Motion Graphics
I created a 3D rendering of the Inspiration Weekend logo as faithfully as I could without actually getting the official fonts from the event organizer. I extruded all layers in Element 3D within After Effects and animated the camera. The lens flare was created with the Optical Flares plugin from Video Copilot.
