Often times, while editing, I’ll be tormented by the fact that I have to be inside and not outside enjoying the beautiful season-changing atmosphere of the natural world. One of the ways I get around this is to set up timelapse photography at undisclosed locations. One element that I’ve always wanted to capture is the effect of billowing clouds on a bold blue backdrop. I was able to catch some clouds however it does require a bit more processing in Post Production before it will really pop like I had hoped to. My preliminary Edit turned out quite nicely. I’ve shared a simple montage edit for you guys to enjoy. As always, the raw footage is much cleaner and lacks the noise that this quick and dirty color grade carries in it. -Enjoy.

Nice! I think the ‘billowing’ clouds are most dramatic. Cool video….keep up the excellent work.

Yeah. I loved the colors I added to it, however I’ll have to do some changes to remove that gainy “noise” in the dark areas. that stuff isn’t in the raw footage.
