Entry 19-Evaluation

I am pleased with the outcome of our final video. I felt as though I could have done better than  have. We faced a lot of problems during this assignment and it became very frustrating at times. With that in mind I feel as though we did quite well and over came this constant issue eventually.

 
What's well about the final music video
  • People have commented on how the video is visually appealing and the cinematography is quite good.
  • The audio and the video compliment each other well. The video reflects the mood of the song well.
  • Worked well in the style commonly associated with the artist and sound
  • Most of the responses we received from the surverymonkey questionnaire were positive  

What'd not that good about the final music video
  • Although we intended for the music video to be more abstract, it didn't completely come across that way.
  • There are some parts of the video that don't work well with the others. Some shots look a little out of place and shaky. However the video has a whole works well and I am happy with it.


Things to improve
  •  Try not to rush when filming the video. Make sure enough shots have been taken.
  • To take more control
  • Be more prepared so it is easier to resolve issue faster.

Entry 18- Editing

Ellie took on the role of the main editor I offered my help whenever I could and did some of the editing hands on myself. Ellie had the footage on her laptop so she was able to access the footage all of the time unlike myself. I think we worked well together and produced a good final music video.

During the editing process we did encounter a few problems. One of them was that the main audio dropped out, Ellie was smart enough to have saved an older version of a sequence with the audio  so she was able to recover it.
Overall the editing process went well and I am very happy with the finish result.
