The GazettE - 'Reila' Highlight


I really like the use of focus in the music video for the song, ‘Reila’, by The GazettE. Throughout the guitar solo, specifically, the shot constantly changes from in-focus to out-of-focus. However, this is not entirely (possibly not at all) done by using the camera lens’ focus tool. It looks as though the blurriness was achieved with the use of a post-production editing package. Adobe After Effects’ ‘Blur’ tools could have been used.
This effect is a simple effect, and easy to achieve, but it looks very nice and adds “texture” to shots.


(Skip to '3:10' for the guitar solo; finishes at '4:20')
