Panjabi MC - Meri Bhain (My Sister) [feat. Sukhi Sivia]
In March 2016, I played a crucial role in both filming and post-production for the music video "Meri Bhain" by Panjabi MC. I assisted in filming green screen elements and B-roll footage, ensuring optimal conditions by assisting with lighting setup, camera positioning, and directing as needed.
I served as the lead editor and VFX Artist for the video, and one of the challenges we encountered was maintaining a cohesive narrative flow. To address this, we strategically incorporated stock footage sourced from platforms such as Pond5 and VideoHive, guided by our specific storytelling objectives we sought visuals that complemented and enhanced the narrative.
During the post-production process, I opted for Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects due to their seamless integration and dynamic link capabilities. This allowed for efficient collaboration between editing and VFX, enabling us to apply effects seamlessly and maintain a streamlined workflow. Similarly, by keeping color grading within the Adobe ecosystem, we ensured consistency and efficiency throughout the post-production process.
This project for Panjabi MC provided invaluable experience, encompassing all aspects from filming to post-production.
