So it looks like I completely neglected to mention that, along with assisting and shooting some behind-the-secenes stills for the Ali Johnson/Lisa Caldognetto beauty shoot, I also shot some video!
So, when I wasn't being a human light stand or shooting some stills I ran around with the 60D and shot some footage of the goings-on. Although I very much enjoy shooting video I really do dread editing it. This is one of only a handful of attempts I have made at a 'finished' video product but I did take things a step or two further this time.
I got to grips a bit more with using the titles in Premier Pro as well as adding pans/zooms to still images within the video. Though I think by far the best thing I learnt was how to adjust the colours. I shot a few bits on auto-whitebalance which did a massive orange fail all over it, something I didn't think about until afterwards (fixing that on a still RAW file isn't a problem!). It's by no means perfect but the whole thing looks better than the untouched footage did and I managed to make the WAY too orange footage a bit more acceptable looking.
Learning; it's good you guys.
