A new sunrise
... And now for a new challenge. I have been posting photos from my first and third sunrise session an Milano Marittima - the rainy and the clean sky ones. As for the second session however, there are issues with the wind moving the clouds resulting in a noticeable shift of the clouds across my exposure bracketings. So I decided to give a try at one of the video I shot on that morning. I am an absolute inept at video processing - so many technicalities to learn in order to know what I am doing (and so little time for such a learning curve)... Moreover, I do not love video postprocessing because I feel that I do not have so much control on the image as I would want to - with photos I have almost complete control over every aspect of a RAW file, using masks of every kind, blending different exposures manually to enhance just every small portion of the frame I wish... Nothing of this I can do with video. Or I am able to do, which is virtually the same. Yet I decided to give it a try, and it has thrilled me, so I am posting the results of this new adventure. An integral part of this new challenge has been the choice to compose a music for the video by myself - yes, I was rather tentative about this at first, but I have made it, at last.
I hope that you enjoy this work of mine.
I have shot the video at 50 fps in order to get some decent slow motion. True to my Open Source workflow, I have processed the video with Kdenlive.I have doubled the original audio track using Audacity - while I loved the scene in slow motion, the resulting audio was just distorted; the solution to this issue was to copy and paste the whole original audio clip in order to double its length without stretching the (sound) waves to an unnatural sound.
I have used MuseScore to compose the music and to perform it.
