Projector

We had a gap in our music video as we couldn't decided what we wanted to put in it. I  came up with an idea where I used a projector to project the lyrics of the song and recorded Jaleesa singing in front of them.

Pictures: 'The Hype'

Here we have pictures from our journey through the process of filming our music video 'The Hype'

Skills development: new editing skills i've learned during editing

I've have learnt a lot of skills whilst editing our music video. I have learnt how to sync the original song on Final cut pro. The outcome of this was very successful as it was accurate to Jaleesa's movement of her mouth and it really looks professional as if Jaleesa is singing the song. 

I have also learnt how to add appropriate effects and transitions to the footage, I used this technique at the beginning of the clip where I used fast jump cuts and fades to avoid the wonky shots being obvious.

When editing our music video, I realised that the night shoots looked really dark when projected. We were running out of time and there as no time to reshoot the location in the day so I had to fiddle around with final cut pro to make the footage lighter. This was very successful as it saved time (time to blog) and finish editing the rest of our video.

I also learnt things such as adding text and making the the song fade out, this was done at the end of the song.

Production: Feedback of Rough Cut

This is a video of a student giving our group feedback after watching our rough cut video. It is important to gain feedback from not only your teacher but from someone who is also making a music video. This person is also part of the target audience that we are aiming at.

started from the bottom now we're here!!!!!
