My day started later than planned, but when I arrived I worked on my stuff right away. This time I could mess around with editing a green screen. Ireceived a couple of pictures and had to try to key out the green screen. I found some neat youtube tutorials and followed their simple steps, but for some reason it didn't work that well. My picture kept having a green glow around her.
I looked at a lot more videos, but no one really provided a solution. There was one guy who matched up the color with the eyedropper but when I tried that it failed even more. I couldn't get the solid black and white in the mask screen, but it was spotty. The standard option worked even better.
I did manage to make it look better when I did color correction, that made the green edges a little darker so they were harder to see. But when I placed a background it wasn't too bad.
I looked up a few backgrounds and added them and the supervisor was pleased with the results. 'It looked as if she was sitting on the bench' he said.
Moments later the singer dropped by and we were taking a look at the concept for the music video. The supervisor started explaining my idea very enthusiastically, but the singer had other ideas.
His vision was so much different than we saw. I thought it was about someone who died, but he wrote about someone who was dying. That changed it completely.
I wrote down his vision of the song and got the challenge to think of a new concept, but honestly that's quite hard as you don't envision it yet that way. I did work with what he said and made something of it, but we still have to discuss if this is really the image we want to portray and if it's even possible to do. The singer did see potential in my concept so we might carry over some of those ideas.
I got to know the singer a bit better and he also brought me home. He would think about the concept and would write down his thoughts so I will see that soon.
When I got home we left to Mac Donalds as it's our no cooking day and we ordered quite a lot as we were all hungry xD I paid this time as they paid stuff for me before. We spent talking for quite a while at the table even when we were done for a long time. My roommates suggested to see the Calgary stampede.
I could go to their family for a few days and go with them to the stampede.
I really would like to go as thats a mean thing in Alberta and it's quite Canadian as well as you get to wear Cowboy hats =P So I hope we can go! Would be cool to see.
Bought my groceries and got a lot of meat so I can live of it at least two weeks. That will drop my costs next week hopefully, but the grocery costs aren't even that bad. Beforehand I thought and calculated I would spend 200 euro's (yes, I calculated in euro's) a month as all looked so expensive, but after two times groceries I only spent 70 (100 dollars). I will save a lot of money this way =D
We got a milkshake when we got home. There was some coffee liquor in it, but it tasted quite good!
