Beauty in the Bleak 2024 remaster

Originally made in 2022 as a combined final for my Intro to Video and Intro to Audio classes. Both classes allowed a good bit of freedom in both just needing to be a video / audio project that hit specific requirements that I do not remember.

For my Portfolio class I chose this project as one of my 3 to revise. I picked it because It’s something I had remained proud of and felt still carried it’s emotional message.

Original from 2022:

Some of my biggest notes I had gotten for the revision on this project where:

  • Time – Shortening the video as the original ran too long
  • Shots – Because of its long run time I had to use almost all the footage I took, including some less interesting shots
  • Focus – Some of the dialogue drifted around and made it hard to understand the message of the film.
  • Color – In the original I barely did any color work to any of the shots resulting in visuals that felt out of place at times.
