Account of editing
We decided to film our two main blocks of footage all independently from each other and as such, this meant that there would then be multiple individual blocks to edit.
When editing, we had many shots which we had taken throughout our two shoot days.This meant we had to keep some and discard some. We decided to keep many close-up shots to address the artists star image and ensure she grabs the audiences attention as she is a new artist and we want the audience to remember her. Close-up shots of objects also helped to add to the narrative and ensure the audience understood it. We also kept shots such as panning and tracking shots to ensure we included a wide range of shots to make the video more interesting and intriguing to watch. We discarded shots which we felt were similar to ones we were already using and also ones that didn't show the mise-en-scene of the whole video the way we planned it to be.
We combine the narrative element and the performance element using cross-cutting. We cut between the narrative element of her life in the streets and the performance element in the studio. We also used editing to make her look in a much worse place then she was by Time-lapses, reverse shots and cloning shots
The zooming was part of the special effects we learnt about whilst editing our music video. We also learnt how to use effects such as transitions (e.g. dissolves) and colour correcting to make the shots look more professional and high quality. Moreover we also used RGB curves to give the video a more abstract effect thus the audience knew the genre and purpose of the music video
We cut the shots we decided to use to the beat in order to match the lip singing with the lyrics in the music. We ensured it was in time with the music by playing around with the shots that didn't match up in order to correct them.
Once that was complete, the next step was to simply polish everything as much as possible and add the final transitions where necessary and make sure everything looked as good as possible, exporting this as our second and final copy.
During the editing process we worked well as a group. We all took turns to edit parts of the video. We also helped each other if one of us was better at a particular aspect of editing than another in order to make sure the video was edited properly and well to get the best final piece. We all put in extra hours towards editing our video to ensure it would finished to the best quality possible.
At A2, we used many more special effects as described previously than what we used at AS in our thriller. The A2 editing process was also much more complex than at AS because of the lip syncing which we had to match to the music exactly. this was more difficult that at AS where we simply cut together the shots we were using.
Overall, our editing skills improved greatly from AS to A2 as we had gained more practice and experience in how to edit a text properly and also how to include more complex things through editing into our product such as special effects which we were unable to do at AS.
