Independent Project - Overlays

My video in it's current state looks pretty boring, so I have decided to add some overlays to make it look like it was filmed on super 8mm film. This is a technique I have seen multiple music artists use for their videos, so I thought I would do it to my own to make it look a lot more interesting.

Drake - In My Feelings

Lana Del Rey - Norman F****** Rockwell

I found an overlay that looks just like this on the internet as well as some other vintage film effects like grain and camera flashes to give the video a bit more personality.

Raw footage

Filter + overlays

I was a little worried that these would make the video a bit distracting, but considering how dull I think the video is normally, I think these effects give it more character. It also differentiates itself from other music videos I have created in the past, which will make my portfolio of work look more varied.

I watched this tutorial to learn how to do it:
