Blog Reflections: Week Eleven

This week we were mainly editing and filming for our music video. We completed filming all of the green screen scenes which took part various times during this week. This is our most important scene because it is where the most of the performance takes place. The whole video revolves around this one scene, because throughout the flashbacks it cuts back to this scene so we took a lot of time and care when filming this. Looking back at all the footage we have more than enough so we don't need to go back and re-film, because we filmed extra footage just in case because we weren't sure when we would get free time to use green screen again and also when our artist would be free.

When it came to editing on the green screen it didn't have the effect we wanted and we just couldn't get it right so we decided to leave it like how you currently see it. The main reason for this is when it came to lighting there were too many shadows in the background which played with the green screen so we couldn't get the desired look that we wanted. We do like how it looks now because it has a clean effect to it and looks similar to the background in Ciaras video - Like a boy.

Overall I felt this week has be very good as we have made so much progress when it comes to editing and are pleased with what we have so far. The shots we have look good and the acting is done very well by our artist but also our editing and cutting to the beat with transitions are coming along nicely and we are slowly starting to see our music video come together!
