Editors: Myself (Leyon), Shayne, Michael and Tyrell
Day one: On this day we began editing. we had planned to edit earlier but were held back due to trouble uploading the videos onto the mac. we finally achieved this a began the arduous journey of trimming the clips down and getting rid of any unnecessary clips which we felt didn't fit the the tempo of the music video or just weren't the shots we were looking for. this was made easier as we all had previous experience of using the the imovie editing software from our thrillers which we produced last year never the less getting back into the swing of things took a while. We totaled up the length of all the clip we had uploaded and it came to around 8.4 minutes this was double the time of our intended music video length. This meant a majority of the time was taken up cropping down clips and getting rid of unnecessary clips. we also encountered another problem unfortunately when filming we did not realize that the video had a time recording on it meaning when we uploaded the videos the all had the date and time of the shoot on them, however we are trying to combat this by seeing if we can blur it out or creatively use it to our advantage.
Day Two: We applied music to our video in order to help us with the timing of the clips and when the different beats kicked in. We began using jump cuts in order to help keep up the tempo of the music video and also to show that the character has a very disjointed lifestyle.
We did this by taking a clip cutting and trimming it into smaller parts and then paste those clips back together. another problem we encountered was that all though we had a sufficient amount of clips they were all specific to a certain part of the song ie the first verse and the chorus and that meant further filming had to be done.
Day Three: We found out that some of our clips did not match the timing or lyrics that were running at the same time and according to Andrew Goodwin's theory the music video must match the lyrics. therefore we had to cut out a few shots that we had planned t have due to their lack of neccesity to the overall music video. we also had to trim a lot of clips in order to keep up with the tempo of the song however i felt that we did a sufficient amount of work this day.
Day Four: On this day we incorporated the use of split screen and an video within a video in order see if it helped move along the music video
Day Five: On this day we incorporated our fast cut editing and tidy up the rest of our video after gaining audience feedback this was all very useful to out videos final cut.
