Preliminary Practice; Colour Grading

 I believe color grading plays a vital role in making any footage look cinematic, and setting the mood, genre and tone of the video. For example, a video might appear gloomy and dark if it is color graded a certain way. However, the same clip can appear cheerful if it is edited in brighter tones. 

This is a short clip of my brother walking, color graded in both cheerful and gloomy ways.

The music also adds to the lighthearted energy of the video.
