After finalising our shot list we put our skills to use and created a small test shoot, showcasing a variety of shots and angles giving the music video look.

What went well:

• We have managed to include a variety of different angles and compositions, to show diversity.
• throughout the post production we edited the clips together so that it cut on the beat or the lyric, this allows the video to incorporate variation and cuts smoothly at the right time.
• All shots are steady and in focus which shows professionalism.

Even better if:

• We should have included a wider range of shots so that our video doesn’t look repetitive and boring.
• Have our artist/actor know the lyrics so that it flows well and does not look cheap, furthermore if they could sing the song instead of miming it. this would make it more realistic
• Upload footage straight away, we only had 10 seconds of footage as we timed it wrong, therefore we went out to film on another day, which then was wiped of the camera as we didn’t upload in time.

From this task I can take away the knowledge I have gained using the camera, and remember to upload footage right away.
