So I took two still images from the video and brought them into Photoshop and adjusted them to create a better video feel and to get the viewers eyes to follow better and recognize the contrasting of the two people. for some reason the JPG images are fine on my files but look really funky on here. I'll give a link to Photobucket Here and Here so you can see them better.
The first image is the man at the piano. I put 3 adjustment layers on it. An Exposure layer, Hue/Saturation layer, and a Brightness/Contrast layer. On the Exposure layer, the exposure level is at +.51, offset level at -.0439, and gamma level at .93....this creates a more unnaturalistic feel. On the H/S layer the hue level is at -16, creating a warmer feel, the saturation level is at +5, and the lightness doesn't change. The B/C layer is the layer that creates the darkness of the scene, I am trying to focus the shot strictly on the man's hands playing the keys and not any of the background areas. The brightness level is at -103 and the contrast is at 100.
The second image is of the woman running in the park. I plan on reshooting this whole scene at a different park though, but for now this is around the color choices and adjustments that I would like for it though. I used 3 adjustment layers for this scene as well. Exposure, Hue/Saturation, and Color Balance. The Exposure and H/S levels are fairly similar except for the hue level is opposite in order to reveal the opposing positions of the two characters. the Color Balance adjustment is there to further enhance the coolness of the scene.
