MUSIC VIDEO & Opinions on distortion

This is a PM message i sent to a few folks but i am now believing it is up for a broader discussion.

There is a green screen section in this video that comes mid 1st verse with large text & blue outlined elements in it. This will be removed as my suspicion that it has no other material or style that makes it match the composition has been confirmed.

I also have some adjustments to make on the old film vignette.


I have a MUSIC VIDEO on a site that i shot in dv.
