How to Get the Vintage Effect

We have decided that we want to try to add a vintage effect of our footage as this may help make the narrative clearer as well as make our artist seem more organic as the colouring will look older and therefore connote that our artist is natural. The vintage effect removes the bright colour to give the footage an ageing effect.

In his video for the song 'Photograph', Ed Sheeran uses old footage which already has a vintage look to it, however, this does make him seem more organic and natural.

Another example of a music video which uses the vintage effect is Ben Howard's 'Old Pine'. This makes the video look older and makes Howard seem like a more organic artist as it highlights the natural colours and therefore makes him seem natural.

In order to try this out on our own video, we need to know how do it, therefore, I have looked at some tutorials on the internet to give me an idea of how to do this. I looked a range of sources including YouTube videos as well as articles on blogs.
