In today's lesson we decided to concentrate on studio shots as well as editing our footage from Cromer yesturday, as the rough cut deadline is today. However when we booked the black room, we were only allowed half an hour in there. We booked the black room from eleven to half past eleven and again at twelve to half past twelve. The first slot we booked felt wasted as we didn't have enough time to shoot as we were busy setting up the equipment in the right places. However it was not wasted as we knew where we wanted to place the lights as lighting is important in a music video.
This picture to the left is showing a member of my group editing the footage we gathered from Cromer yesturday in final cut.
This picture to the right shows the clip of the actress, me, on the beach. On the left in the picture is the original clip. On the right in the picture is the clip in the view finder, this is where we can edit the clip by using colour correction e.t.c.
To the left is a picture of a box which deals with how slow of fast the clip is. We were testing to see whether it looked better slowed down or in real time, as this was one clip we didn't use slow motion on the camera for.
To the left is another member of my group seeing the footage we gathered from Cromer, and also trying to edit the footage in final cut.
To the left shows the slow motion shot, close up of the actress, me running in the viewfinder of final cut.
Below it's showing how the clips of the footage are put onto different layers to make it easier for editing.
To the right, this is showing the shot of the seagulls flying down off the wall. We do have other shots of seagulls flying. We still haven't decided whether or not if we're having all the shots we've gathered from Cromer with the seagulls flying, or to only have one or two in the music video. When we were shooting the seagulls in Cromer. We were expecting them to fly upwards, which is what we wanted. However they flew downwards. Even though they flew downwards, footage looked amazing as it was in slow motion instead of real time.
To the left shows us trying to make sure the Christmas lights are stuck to the black background. It took several attempts with blue tack, but we ended up using black tape. This was to create depth to the music video and to show we deeply thought of lighting to be key in our music video.
To the right shows our actress holding some Christmas lights close to her without having her hands in the shot. It shows how we took care in lighting up this extreme close up shot.
In our rough cut, it doesn't show all the footage that we have in it. This is due to the fact we still needed to re-shoot the studio shots. It is also due to the fact that some of the Cromer shots need to be discussed about whether we use them in our music video or not.
Whilst filming in the black room we had little space to film, this is why we didn't get any camera movement. In the black room we had to be aware of loads of files that the performing arts department have put there as storage.
