01/11/16- editing

Today we did more editing. We tightened up on clips, making cutting the shots to the beat of the drum in the song a priority and so now what you see, matches what you hear more. It also keeps a fast tempo and is interesting and engaging for the audience as no one clip is on the screen too long.

After submitting our second draft of our video we received more feedback from our teacher and again made all of the changes which she recommended and generally tightened up on editing which we felt wasn't up to scratch. This won't be the final edit of our video but it helps log our improvements.

Third draft edit of music video

Shooting for digipak and magazine ad

After discussing my digipak and magazine ad draft with my peers and my teacher I reached the conclusion that they weren't relevant to the album as a typical feature of these ancillary text are that thy advertise the artist and so having a random girl on the front would be too out of context and not make sense.
Therefore, today, I retook some photos using Nathan, the boy who features in our music video, miming the lyrics as he is the artist in the context of our video so it is who I should be promoting on my ancillary texts. I am quite pleased with how the photos have turned out and my next step will be to select which images to use and edit them, also adding on text and choosing a font. Today has therefore been a beneficial activity as it allows me to take the next step into producing the final versions of my digipak and magazine ad.

Second draft of music video

After editing our video more across the past few days we have managed to produce a second draft version of our music video. This video now includes some lip synching which I am very pleased with as I feel that it makes the video feel much more like  music video rather than a narrative story with a song over the top. After seeking teacher and peer advice we decided to cut the end of our video from where the female character falls pregnant to the end. This is because the first half of our video is in a non-chronological order and it then switches to a chronological order which looked strange and by making the whole thing non-chronological, it flows better and is easier to enjoy.
Here is our second draft;

After we published our first draft of our video, we received some audience feedback from our teacher;











We took on board all of this feedback and made amendments where necessary. This meant changing and moving around some of the clips to create a different sort of narrative and I feel that this makes our video flow better and is more enjoyable to watch and easy to understand.
