Planning: Testing Effects with Footage in Premiere Pro

In this short video that follows, I have compiled different video effects and adjusted the levels to make the footage appear more interesting and to also test out the colour filters that I wanted to do previously. I have used blue and red filters in this video and I am unsure as of yet whether to use them for my music video, but will be a decision I make at a later date as I need to compile the footage together first in an order and then add the overlaying of the other footage. I also need to create the titles yet and work upon the black and white arrangement and whether I want the background to be white instead of black.

Below are some screenshots of the video and the effects that I have used to obtain the imagery that can be seen.

For the effect above I have used the 'Change Colour'

effect so that it appears posterised - colour white. This

image is quite interesting and could be something I use

for the CD Digipack or MMA.

Again these are the effects - I used tint first and then 

added the colour spotlight so that it appears to be a 

filter. 

Again, I used the spotlight but without the tint and this

was a disadvantage as the image doesn't look as

appealing. The red is too bright and is appearing on

the black. 

This final effect was a lot more complicated to obtain as I was playing around with multiple effects anyway. To get this I sharpened the image slightly so that the actor was clearer. I then used the noise levels so that it appeared pixelated and then adjusted the shadows/highlights. This made the image extremely dark and almost threatening. I then added the tint and the colour to the image and the colour appears to be fading away, which, is rather interesting.
