Editing: Music Video

Editing blog for the music video

Today we are working on the Music video. We are in the editing process and we are trying to bring the music video together. With the software PinnacleStudios we will shape the music video into our vision for the music and what it represents. We will be looking at the storyboards I made so, that the music and edits are where we want them. The storyboard will give us the initial layout of what we want the music video to look like. We will be able to see what will happen as the story progresses through the pages. When I filmed I followed the storyboard so that the music video would turn out how I wanted. This was to make sure that there was consistency throughout. I made sure to color the storyboard in the way it would be in the film so it so we knew the parts where we needed to put in it. The music was easy to follow wile I edited the initial layout of the video. 

   I wanted the flow to be easy to follow. So, that’s what I tried making the storyboard to be like. Last time, we filmed it like the storyboard, but edited the commercial differently. I didn’t want it to be like that time. I wanted more consistency so,I ended up editing the bear bones. I wanted it so it could be like the storyboard. When I dumped the footage i made it so that it was separate from the other footage,so we didn’t get confused. Afterward was the easiest part. Jaheim dumped the footage directly into the program (Pinnacle Studios). Then we aligned the scenes in the way it was on the storyboard. 

  The different things we use for the conventions and to piece them together are as follows. The different things we used in the video are as follows as well. The fade in and out was to make the transitions easier and smother for the audience. I wanted the audience to feel as if they were with them dancing and being free. So the fade in and out was to make it so the smoothness of the transitions can input a feeling. The audience will interpret that feeling in their own way. The edit we used is black and white so when we filmed, the lighting had to be good. The eye-line match was to give the audience a glimpse of what the actresses were seeing. Ending it at that was to capture more of the 50-60s vibes from their movies. The music we played will only be for 1:15 seconds due to the duration of the video has to be at that time and the end of the song perfectly falls at that time.
