On one of the mornings last week, I got up way before dawn to get some B-roll footage for the Punkfish day-in-the-life film. I wanted to get some footage of the sea and the sunrise on the east coast, but that was easier said than done. There was a weather phenomenon in place called Calima which brings warm air and dust from the Sahara, coupled with strong winds. The light was still gorgeous though.
My final stop was at Malpique, where I was fascinated by the way the water from the retreating waves just disappears into the sand. This clip was a very simple edit, picking white balance and exposure from the colour checker and applying it to an ajdustment layer with the N-Log LUT.
I unlinked the audio from all of the clips and used the ambient audio from the last clip to underlay the whole edit with a consistent sound layer. Some cross-fades and audio fades, and the whole edit was done in the space of a coffee and a nudo de almendra.
