While researching different music videos we found one aspect in particular effective in creating a professional and visual pleasing finish. This is the focus on COLOUR GRADING.
This is a screen shot from the video 'Black and Yellow' by Wiz khalifa. Throughout his video the colour levels seem to have a green/yellow grading over them to create a kind of warm aged look. The style of this grading suits the setting of a hot city environment which is what the video tries to portray. 
These are screen shots taken from another music video which is actually in our genre. Again the similar theme of city and warmth is applied however there are more tones of blue/green. This effect is called 'bottlewash' in many level editing programmes.
In our video we want to have this kind of effect over some of our footage and so we created a small montage of flips to try this out. We did this by changing the colour levels on imovie shown in the print screen below.
By using this tool of changing levels we created the colour grading/ aged effect on these pieces of footage.
