Got inspired by HiTop's new youtube video about superman.
I really LOVE the intensity of the colour in that image and I realised that I really miss that about superman. the message of hope. It's something I don't realy feel during any WB movies, and only really felt back in the 80s. That pure imagery of Christopher Reeve with his smile and beautiful blue eyes...
Well there was also a lot about Man of Steel that I loved... but not the lack of colour, that's for sure. Also there's that weird structure with all those flashbacks. If you've seen my other topics, you know I don't like those XD at least not too many. But what would I really be saying by adding more colour? what would I be saying by removing flashbacks?
Well, as seems to be a bit of a thing for me, I want to punch up the emotion. I think in this case, I want to assault your eyes with it. here... I'll render the first bit of colour work I've done. See how I want to really kick you in the face with colour?
I also did some work on Krypton scenes, reworking the colour of the entire sequence to accentuate red, yellow and blue.
Aside from that, I plan to rescore some elements of the movie using John Williams classic scores.... but I'm not 100% decided on that as it could feel trite.
First thoughts about how to present the story... I love the intro so that may be mostly untouched, but I do plan to do something with faces. I want to blur out faces when they show anguish in some places. I intend to make it subtle so that it appears as it is done in camera, but I want to try it order to possibly reduce a lot of the negative feelings. I also want to blur Clark's face in some scenes and will be editing him out in some sections as I think I want to go with the 'mystery man' angle. I think by doing this, the first part of the movie hangs more on Lois and I can find some other way to introduce Clark and his childhood experiences. Still thinking on that.
I know there are a lot of Edits of this movie, so I don't feel it's good enough to do a gentle edit, I need to be violent with it.
Anyway, welcoming any thoughts, and I don't have time to research other people's edits so if you can think of anything relevant, I'd be very grateful!
