Film look with After effects CS4

Been messing about with footage captured on the Samsung R10, trying to get that "Film look" in the style of titles. Colour correction ,vignettes, time remapping, frame rate conversion and Depth of field all done in After effects CS4, timelapse is straight from the cam, and not that impressed with my first attempt, the sky needs to be rolling towards or away from you in my opinion for it to be something special. Editing done in Prem Pro CS4.

It looks pretty great. Even though you probably won't do this again I would like to offer my advice/preferences.

At 0:35 the framerate gets slightly choppy, Im guessing you wanted teh splash off the rocks to be in slow motion, next time up the framerate if you plan on doing it in the future. Idk the mood of the scene but to make the sky seem happier and brighter add a glow effect and play with the threshold and reduce the radius.

@slerbo Thanks for the tips but the mood is as intended. Because this camera doesnt do 23.976 fps I had already transferred the fps from 30 to 23.976 then deleted the original footage! So when it came to slow mo I only had 23.976 fps to play with, bit of a durrrrrrrrrrrrrr moment lol. I no longer use this cam and twixtor all my footage nowadays.

hi buddy... u should have used warp stabilization from AE cs5.5 or should have tracked and stabilized the footage for achieving a movie look intro......

@aravinth33 Hi. Good idea! But...CS5 was not even available when I did this, and it was my first ever attempt. I have the CS5 suite now and sold this Camera to upgrade. Look out for my later vids.I used magic bullets stabilizer on some and that is also a great plugin.

@NHBEY39 all you said is true. To be honest my last comment was me being in a bad mood... I think you've done a great job, and why on earth should we not practice technique and use bad footage to do so? I thought so! Good choice on the 550d also, it's a great cam and creates incredible footage. Also it makes 7d owners jealous so that's a bonus. I subbed you because I was obnoxious and also because your work rocks. I'm off to fill my face with coco pops now...
