Rayven - It's Only Trailer (Patreon)

Some time ago I found my creative desires didn't stop at taking photos of my work, it turns out I also absolutely love making music videos featuring my friends and the outfits I make for them to wear. If you've ever been interested in purchasing one of my pieces, there is no way better to see how they move and shape your figure than in motion.

Come support all that we do here at Black Fox and show your love for learning, independence, creativity, amazing outfits, and amazing people.

From the full video post: 

Ok so I have mixed feelings about this video. First of all, it’s one of the most labor intensive ones I’ve ever made. Rayven came along to shoot and while I had some vague ideas for videos, I didn’t think we would have time to do the one I really wanted. But she has such an awesome attitude that she wanted to go for it even though she had somewhere to be and had limited time. She spent several hours with me building up this wall, piece by piece, one by one, and by the time we finished building, hanging, and painting this; it was already past her time to leave. Still, she wanted to get the video done, so she stuck around and we filmed something awesome anyways! I think she did an amazing job, and any problems with the video are 100% on my end. 

The lighting is my primary complaint, I wanted to have a special odd set of shadows appearing over the model, so I set up an LED light which tends to cast such shadows. However those weren’t working out and we REALLY needed to move forward, so I left them up and just shot even though it caused some framerate issues and overall odd coloration. I tried color correcting to the best of my abilities, but I can only do so much as a self-taught color grader.

Finally, my last little complaint, is that I now have the new gimbal that I replaced from the stolen one you guys might remember from back in May. I moved to a new brand that was supposed to be better than my old one, but so far I’m not as much of a fan of it. The movement is clunky and weird, and the overall rig is MUCH heavier than my previous one, making it very difficult to film. I am still considering returning it if I can’t get the calibrations to my liking...and possibly based on the weight factor alone. My old one was heavy but this is near unusable.

Still, the overall sequencing of the video came out awesomely and I love how well I feel the song matches, and the concept is soooooooo cool. I hope I did Rayven enough justice and that you guys all enjoy “It’s Only” featuring this lovely soul!
