Final music video short version



This is our short clip music video. Our song that we used is called Oh no by Marina and the diamonds. We chose to use this song because we wanted something upbeat and exciting and it matched well with our idea so we decided on this song. I think this song is not as upbeat as other songs but it is still upbeat for a music video song.

Evaluation for music video

Evaluation 

What went wrong?
We didn't get to storyboard it well so we didn't really know where we had to start when we were filming and editing.

What worked?
The editing that we did worked quite well and also the colourisation for the clips worked well as well.

What you should have done?
we should have matched the editing to the beat of the music more and also should have used more fast paced editing in the chorus to make it more effective.

What you plan to do next time differently? 
Make sure that we edit to the beat of the music more to make the music video more interesting for people to watch and also to add different paces of different clips, like do slow and fast paced to make it even more eye catching. Also to add more colour to some clips to make them stand out more than the other clips like for example the chorus.

Evaluation of foundation production

Evaluation

What went wrong? 
We had to film it 3 times due to the match on actions and lightings and the continuity issues because no clips would match.  We also had issues with our actresses, not being available and all. The last time that we had to film again was because on that weekend our school got robbed and they toke all of our computers and so went our work as well.  We had so many problems with the music because we just couldn't find anything to match with our video. Also the credits and titles were quite bad as we didn't know how to do it, as in the font, colour and style of the writing.

What went well?
The flashbacks that we used were really effective, and despite the problems our sequence was quite effective in the end and we were able to make a decent opening sequence.

What you should have done?
We should have, while we were filming, look back at what we were filming and if there were any problems we should have fixed it then. Also we should have followed the storyboard more and we also thought that we could of done more with the costumes by planing it more in advance. We should have allowed time to finish a rough cut and from there if there were any problems to fix it, then we wouldn't of had as many problems as we did.

What do you plan to do next time differently?
Plan everything before hand and actually follow the plan and not just do whatever we like because that led us into a lot of problems. We should have a time schedule for when we are going to shoot or edit or when we are going to come and look at the clips we got. Also to split the group blog work to make it more equal.
