Prelim Evaluation Question 3: Are you pleased with the footage and your edit? Is it how you expected it to look?

I'm very pleased with the footage and my edit, personally, I think it is better than I expected it to look.
We recreated all of the shots, with our own adaptations were necessary, for example changing the band girls' costumes to be less revealing and changing the car to a motor bike. All of the other props and sets were almost identical, as well as the lighting of the shots.

The final edit Mahalia and I created was very alike to the original when compared side-by-side. Different groups chose different takes for their edits depending on personal preference, but I feel Mahalia and my shots fitted very well. We managed to grade all of the shots to bring the colour out of the video, adjust skin tones and brighten the darker shots.
