Madonna "Get Together" Music Video Tutorials?
by Chiprocks1 (chiprocks1) on Nov 10, 2006 at 3:13:31 am

I did a search/Advance search and found nothing.

So, are there any links or does anyone have a tutorial or any information on how to do Madonna's "Get Together" music video?

Thanks in advance for any and all help.
Chip

There's a lot of things going on in that video. Could you narrow it down a little?

I pretty much want to know everything that went on in the video so that I can replicate it as best as possible. There's not just one thing that I need to know but all of it.

Thanks.

When doing this sort of thing, you need to do more than search the COW. If there are any behind-the-scenes articles, they probably won't be here -- they'll be in an interview somewhere or on the designers' site(s). Look for the terms that are likely to be in the kind of article you want to find.

Google "madonna" "get together" and "after effects", just in case AE was used on this.

It worked for me.

That should get you started. Search some more based on what you find there.

Thanks for tip on searching. Still havent found anything anywhere on the net regarding the
technical aspect of the video. So I guess I will ask a more specific question in hopes that someone can help me.

How do I recreate the Color Technique ("retro-color") that is the main FX of the video itself?

I checked the video tutorial of Cartoonification, but that has nothing to do with this video and more to do with the Waking Life technique.

Thanks again
Chip

Did you try mixing Colorama and Find Edges into your technique?

Yes. And the problem that I got was that it was an overall color scheme, where as in the video, each part of Madonna was distinct in what was "hair" color, "Skin" color, "clothes" color.

Then you need to separate those different items first, so they get treated differently. The best way would be to dress the talent in clothes of completely different colours, then key. It'll still be a fair bit of work, but if you want to treat things in footage differently, you need to key them or mask them.

Try de-saturate, posterize, followed by colorama. Of course, the very first thing you should do is key out the background. You could also use something like "Leave Color" and "Color Replace" if you want some more complicated results.
