colour correction (done)

I needed this scene to be brighter since the interviewers room was insanely bright and since one side of the room was  bright I cannot allow the other side to be dimmer, I used the effect editor to change the gain, contrast and gamma so that way it could look some what similar when it came to the two clips coming together. In this screenshot I was able to brighten up the whole face and image entirely but it didn't look enough alike so I needed to make more changes.

With this image I edited the image with the colour correction section so that I could make the two scenes seem as if they were the same room considering we could only get each actor in at separate times.
Overall I think that I did quite well with what we had to make of it, since both were natural lighting yet one was brighter because of the light source being directly behind the job interviewer.

I used the colour correction to change the look of this scene, to the left is what the focus was previously on, We needed to have the two actors seem to be in the same room which they actually were, just at at separate times and different weather forecasts. I lit the room that Anger was in with a flood light bouncing off of the ceiling so that we didn't get any misdirecting cast shadows. However this still left the image still very orange in comparison to the Therapists original lighting. So using the colour wheel colour correction tool in Avid I was able to change the original colour of orange to a natural light look by moving most of the sections to blue so that it balanced out to a neutral colour. As well as twisting and sliding the gamma and gain so that it had a more realistic feeling to it.

* The spatial complexity of the image of the city was matched by the intricate and evolving geography of the film industry on the ground where Hollywood cinema and the
place known as 'Hollywood' were never one and the same. Within Los Angeles, film-making was established early on not only in the fabled district but in downtown, Edendale and Westwood, and in nearby municipalities such as Glendale, Burbank and Culver City. In its external relations, Los Angeles used motion pictures to challenge older cities such as New York, Philadelphia and Chicago, with which Los Angeles' film industry competed for creative talent, film production and corporate finance, and whose primacy Los Angeles began to overtake." - (Page 8)
