Joy Williams - “Front Porch”
Client: Sensibility Music / Joy Williams
Role: Colorist
Project Type: Music Video
Industry: Entertainment / Music
This music video called for an honest and grounded aesthetic to match Joy Williams’ stripped-back sound. My approach to color grading was rooted in natural tones, soft textures, and emotional warmth — designed to complement the visual intimacy of the storytelling.
Subtle, nostalgic, and full of soul. This color grade was built to evoke quiet sincerity, capturing the light as it dances off hardwood floors and woven linens — a nod to the idea of home, both musically and visually.

Before & After: Color Grade Transformation
Each frame was graded with a consistent thread of warmth — muted earth tones, golden highlights, and soft neutral shadows — reinforcing the organic and heartfelt tone of the track.
