Music Video Draft 1 – Rough Cut

Overall, I think the shoot went well and my group members obtained some significant camera shots that work well with the style we want to portray. Our actor new all the words and lip synched well, as this is just a rough cut we experimented with lots of aspects of the editing to see what looks best.

As this is a rough cut we have some targets, these are…

  • Close ups to catch the emotion of the actor and have a more intimate feeling with the audience
  • Smoother transitions when editing and more interesting transitions
  • Actor playing guitar more accuratley as he doesn’t look like he’s actually playing along with the acuostics
  •  Cut out the 14 seconds of blank screen at the beginnng
  • Add more shots that have movement, the static ness of the shots can get boring and lose audience interest
  • Get more variety of shots as we only had 3 shots.
  • Close ups of the actor playing along the frets of the guitar
  • Actor occasionally breaks the fourth wall and comes out of character, we need to make sur ewe don’t include the parts of when this happens.
  • More pace of edit to the beat
  • Need to ensure no background clutter in the shots
  • Close ups and extreme close ups of singing, fingers strumming and toe tapping
  • Add side shots
