Yellow (Coldplay) Music Video

*I do not claim any rights to this music!*

My friends and I are big fans of Coldplay, so we decided to make a music video for Yellow. We used just my Canon 550D and my friend's Canon EF 24-70 f/2.8L lens.

Starring: Sanjeet Ajgaonkar
Shot by: Aksel Chiew
Edited by: Srini Madhavan (me)

The day had some shockingly varying weather, but we got some great takes.
Edited and colour graded in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 (which does surprisingly well with DSLR footage, although my slow weak laptop couldn't play back the footage at all), and exported with Adobe Media Encoder.

I had some issues with exporting as it constantly exported the audio and video separately. This was when I exported to MPEG2, and the files would be separate. I managed to finally export both sound and video together by exporting to H.264, however I wish I didn't have to export to such a lossy codec.
If anyone knows any other ways of exporting it (maybe uncompressed? could anyone confirm?) that would be some iinformation i'd value greatly.

Probably as good, if not better then the real video.

To say great, would be a half measure.

The only thing really noticed missing;

was the tacky looking "yellow" hoodie,

but I can live without that. G. Video.

haha a yellow hoddie would have been funny.
