Kryptonian Man is meant to be a wildly different approach to Man of Steel, putting the military front and centre, and portraying Lois and the alien 'super man' as aloof and rude.
It is slightly grindhoused in places, but I did want to try and maintain some sincerity in places. I introduced some now perspectives through the use of text inserts and I used specific attention to colour in 3 individual points.
firstly, I added colour to the fire and explosions in smallville,
second I gave the alien some colour to indicate when the military start to trust him a little,
lastly i added colour to the final victory over the other aliens when their ship is sucked into a singularity.
It has a running time of around 40 mins.
----------------------------------------------
I was thinking today about how I had removed nearly all the military from my man of steel edit.
I then thought to myself.... what if I went the other way? (remove most of clark,lois, zod, jor el, etc. and keep mainly the military)
I decided to try and see what this would look like, so I proceeded to do a hack job and see how it felt. As I worked and slapped in some edgy frame shifting and some smash cuts, I felt it had a particular energy to it and decided to lean into the type of unconventional style we often see in older movies, how Tarantino sometimes does. I am not really sure what this style of work is called. It's certainly dynamic and unconventional and I just really had fun with it.
I have something that is at a fairly complete stage. Of course as always, I'm more than happy to listen to feedback and suggestions.
This is a different type of work for me and is very raw.
anyhow, here's a clip.

- Shift perspective to that of the US military
- Remove nearly all information that they wouldn't have access to
- Remove colour and adjust contrast to 1930s style cinema
- Try to lightly emulate the feel of a B movie
- Enhance the major explosions with LIVING-COLOR™
