I began experimenting in the world of photography, which led me to pursue a Bachelor of Arts in Digital Media Production at the University of the West Indies.<\/p>\n<p>After graduating, I furthered my craft by working as a Multimedia Designer and later leaving that role to pursue my passions as a Creative Director, Director, Cinematographer (<a href=\"http:\/\/thefrshcreative.com\/\">http:\/\/thefrshcreative.com\/<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>Since then, I have worked on various projects with Clients such as Protoje, Lila Ike, Charly Black, Yaksta, I-Octane, Skillibeng, Jords, Govana, Aidonia, Romain Virgo, The Nue Co., and many others. I would describe my style as editorial, fused with culture and color.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tell us about your film &#8211; how did it come about?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This music video is about coming from a life of little and learning how to be innovative with the little you have to multiple into something big with investments and agriculture.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How did you find out about FilmConvert?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I found FilmConvert a couple years ago when I wanted that 35mm vintage look with one simple click and colors I wanted, I first did some research on youtube watching tutorials about the plugin before I downloaded the trailer then soon after buying it for Premiere Pro.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why did you decide to use FilmConvert for this particular project?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I always grade with FilmConvert it&#8217;s the secret ingredient to my film sauce and the ability to tweak the film stocks and color how I see fit I\u2019m always able to make it how I want to fit my film.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What was the particular look or style you were going for with your film?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For this music video I wanted vintage creamy highlights mix with contrasty mid tones especial in the skin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tell us about your workflow. What settings, film stock, camera profiles and tweaks did you use in FilmConvert?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I work in Adobe Premiere Pro (Cut and Color Grade) after I color correct all clips individually an adjustment layer is places over the timeline.<\/p>\n<p>Then I use FilmConvert to finalize my grading process which is tweaked based on darker clips thus adjustment layer is cut into sessions and color coded for darker clips vs brighter.<\/p>\n<p>For this Film I used Blackmagic cinema 6k camera shot in 6k(2:4:1) Raw 8:1 after importing clips I color correct all clips and apply a basic LUT built into the BRAW data.<\/p>\n<p>Then in FilmConvert * adjustment layer, I used the default camera setting, temperature 33+, tint 0, film stock KD 5207 Vis3 (chroma, luma 100%), film size 35mm, size 4, softness 0, strength ( 100% on b-roll \/ 16% on performance shots), highlights pushed to creamy yellow in the color wheels.<\/p>\n<p>However on the song outro shot around the dinner table, the temperate 15+ and highlight on color wheel reset to normal because that scene was shot warmer in camera.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What other effects or tweaking did you use?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Never have use any other effects or tweak, once I used FilmConvert I get the look I want always.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Give us a bit of detail about yourself &#8211; background, profession, how you got into filmmaking and your current role I\u2019m Davyfrsh, born on the beautiful Island of Jamaica, I found my love for the arts at the age of 16, after getting my first camera.
