Last Night, 2024

This video project explores how different emotions/ideas can be communicated through the mise en scene alone, using the same actor in two different locations. In the first scene, I focused on creating a romantic and warm environment to tell the story of someone preparing a meal for someone they love. The second scene switches the tone, showing the same actor now distressed through the dark and cold environment. I utilized Adobe After Effects during the post production to edit the timing of the clips and add in any extra sound effects/music.

In this video project, I focused on capturing the same environment in both the day and night. I was able to experiment with different lighting, shadows and exposures on the camera while working outside as the sun was setting. I took inspiration from the style of old film camera videos and combined it with my footage to create an unsettling atmosphere. I was able to utilize Adobe After Effects to give my footage the film camera feel, as well as editing the audio to better match the scene.

This video project is focused around sound and the process of removing sound from the original video clips and building it back up through the process of Foley. The title of this Project, Warm Feeling, is inspired by the comforting feeling I get on a lazy, rainy day, cycling through some of my favorite activities. The warm red and purple lighting helps to emphasize the warmth and comfort in the room, while the dark blue light reflects the time passing from day into night.
