me and my friend did some filming yesterday, i was really trying to achive some cool filming.
the ski sounds you hear was put on afterwards in the editing program.
longer edits will come when we get enough shoots.

They were all underexposed and a little shaky? Were you using any stabilization because its pretty important to either have a tripod glidecam or both with DSLRs.

i used a tripod, but didnt had any weights to stabilize it more. its not under eksposed, i turned down the saturation and did a dark coulor correction. but you are right, its perhaps a little bit too mutch. but i think it works ok:)

The desaturation didn't work well at all. The shots just looked "dead". Desaturation only works in some cases. Also, the use of slow-mo just made the shots seem shakier. It didn't really make anything seem more dramatic.

i was also experimenting with low contrast, color grading etc in my camera to achive that look. it was completly at purpose. but like i said before i realize it was a bit too mutch. im not a huge fan of slowmo myself, but i used it anyway to make it fit better to the music, i was not trying to make it dramatic actually.

ty so mutch for the feedback:)

Yea no problem. Trial and error is definitely one of the best ways to improve in my opinion. Keep at it.
