After deciding that I want to use this medium for my E4 Ident, I wanted to play around with filters to see how strong I wanted the colour to be. I knew I didn't want to leave it be as I feel like the aesthetic doesn't really suit the brand of E4.
I could easily change the levels and the contrast to make the animation brighter and more pleasing to the eye, but there is literally NO colour therefore I really wasn't happy with it.
This was the first edit I did to the frame. I did a purple overlay as well as going in and adding shadow and depth to the plasticine balls. I think this is one of my favourite outcomes, because it is purple enough to recognise as the brand of E4, but also not as in your face as some of the other experiments I did.
This is the next one which I experimented with making the scene more vibrant, but I think that it might be a little too vibrant and in your face, though I know E4 has a tendency to go crazy with their colour schemes so it is more of a personal issue.
And then lastly I experimented even further with shadow as opposed to just the overall look. The ball on the left I added further depth and shadow to and I left the ball on the right to see if I could tell a difference. And I could, but I quite like the plasticine without THAT much shadowing. Plus since I am working in 24 frames per second, it would probably become a bit of an issue to go in and add shadow to each ball in every frame. I want to manage my time well, so I give attention to both ident briefs, but also work hard on each.
