Above is our first draft of our music video, we are very pleased with the quality of shots and how the short into and outro came out as well (we did this to extend the length of the music video).
One element of the music video we are particularly pleased with is the 360 pan shot, 'teleporting' our character from the urban, inner city location to the natural environment, representing her finding her freedom. When we made our first test shot, we wasn't happy with the our come as the cutting between the two locations wasn't consistent enough for liking, therefore when we came to filming it for real, we took great care in where the came when into her back and where I came out of, making sure they were in almost exactly the same place.
Another thing we are extremely happy with is the performance of the two main characters in the narrative. Isaac and Amy, two friend of the group do not do media, but out of a favour they agreed to help us in our music video, with both of the taking both drama and music, we felt with this experience it would help them preform to how we wanted, so we saw no one else who would be better suited for the roles. As you can see throughout the music video, you can see how excellently they played their roles and how well Isaac preform the lip-syning parts of the video
However there are some things that we have identified which we are going to re-edit, re-shoot and add in. For example
Our music video is clearly un-complete, the black gaps in our music is where we are going to use shots filmed on the green screen which we haven't actually filmed yet but are planning to after school on Monday the 17th. We are planning to create and use stop go animation in the background of our music video, which we found was a common convention in our genre of music.
Some shots, such as they 'Studio' footage, we felt wasn't to the standard we wanted compared to the other location shots that we had filmed. Also, we felt by re-shooting them, we can work on reducing the amount of shadows we had in certain shot ad we can all also work on the performance of the band members. We are planning on re-shooting these shot on Wednesday the 19th after school.
