Music Video - First Final



Above is the final of our music video. It took us around a month to film extra scenes again due to the first ones not being suitable and also all of the editing because there are a lot of cuts throughout the song and we needed to match the clip with the beat to make sure it had relevance which was quite time consuming but worth it once you watch the final product.

Today we spent adding the final touches, new filters onto the leopard costume scene to make it stand out just as much as the other clips, we also had to change one of the clips in the middle of the video as it cut from one place where the male actor had no glasses on and then the next time it flashed on he was wearing glasses, so this was only a fault of our own and if we kept it there it would look like we hadn't thought it through and would look very out of place and unprofessional. This is one thing we didn't want viewers to feel because we have put a lot of time and effort into filming and editing this video that we wanted everything we have filmed to look perfect in a sequence, there will always be some elements of the video we would change if we could re shoot parts again but with the time and clips we already had we used them to the best of our abilities.

The final part of the video we had to amend was close to the end, it consisted of one really long clip without any speeding up or cuts which just looked out of place with our up beat song choice, so we had to look through all the clips we had filmed over the month and decided on which ones we could use in the small space we had left to speed up and make it look freaky. It came down to using the tea party scene because this is when the main character does a lot of different body and arm movements as its the "transformation" scene where she turns from a normal human into a cannibal and we thought using a variety of them speed ed up together in a row would work really well and will also be something that the audience wouldn't be expecting which is another element we have thought about because the audience is the biggest critic and putting in extra surprises they wouldn't have thought about makes our music video a unique piece which I am so proud of.
