Colour Consideration

When editing the footage which we recorded over the Christmas holidays I noticed that a lot of the footage was different colours (due to the constant change in lighting). This particularly occurred in the bedroom scenes. For example:

Shot one

Shot two

As editor I had to decide what colour footage I liked better, the warmer or colder toned one.
I noticed that throughout Fish Tank Arnold uses warm tones. For example, the following clip:

I have also decided to use the warmer toned footage.
I feel that the warm tones connote safety and this is what we wanted to achieve in Sophie's bedroom. We wanted the scene to look warm and comfortable and we wanted the audience to recognize her bedroom is where Sophie felt the most safe. I feel that the warm tones also give off a homely feel which we wanted to have within our bedroom location.

NOTE: As our footage was all a variety of different colour I am going to use the tools available to me in Abode Premiere Pro (our editing software) to make sure that all the clips I use are the same orangey colour as the one above.

Above is a print screen of me changing the colours of our footage within Premier using the brightness and contrast options.
