Post Production: Editing First Hook Sequence (Part 1)

 This Sequence leads up to and includes the first hook and the main beat.

It also includes the first lipsync we did earlier.

This is the biggest composition in after effects for this project.

First we edited a shot of the actor being confused and looking at his arms as the lyrics go "I'm going through withdrawals".

To show a metaphorical way of withdrawal we created an effect which creates an echo behind the actor of what he does. Instead of using the echo effect itself, we just duplicated the clip and placed the duplicates before or after the original shot. Also to make it better to look visually we added the filmdamage effect on top of an adjustment layer


Next is a green screen clip of the actor doing some action (not lipsyncing) and another green screen (lipsyncing) there is a lens flare transition between the two over an adjustment layer.



Filmdamage effect added on top of both.
