Once we had finished our second draft, he had to take a step back and reflect on how we gave our music video the indie genre feel and how else we could improve this.
During the process of our third, we found that the colour we had put in when editing the green screen sections were too bright, therefore we changed them from sharp and harsh, such as electric blues and harsh reds, to more 'matte' and calm colours, teals and gentle greens. Also the use of the colour constantly changing and blending into each other gives a more independent and different feel to the video instead of using just a set number of block colours.
We also re-shot to the studio footage on the 1st of December. To give the shots a more independent feel we made sure we included a looser frame to show the props and the background that we had made. We wanted to included the lights trailing out of shot both sides and the addition of the 'homemade studio background' prop create 'do it yourself', home grown and self funded connotations towards the video. We found this was a key element we wanted to portray throughout our music video.
Also, we felt that the use of the various types of tape on the drums can help to give a tacky, cheap and rundown feel towards the instruments and can also be used to further emphasise the 'self funded' connotation we wanted to portray.
