Music video draft 1 – rough cut

We have completed an entire songs worth of footage to come together to be our first draft for our music video. We filmed on about 7 different days because we wanted to perfect the footage, especially the lighting in the studio shoot.

Self assessment

I am really happy with the turnout of our first draft especially considering how long it took to edit I am pleased with the way it flows, one of our main aims was to have the agressive shots eg. the bat, in time with the beat of the song so this was something we’re going to continue to do for our next drafts as it looks effective.

Another aspect of the video that I love is the pace of the clips and editing and how it really picks up speed towards the end of the video, it portrays the anger well and shorter cuts look very effective in my opinion.

Here is the full first draft of The Love Club-

Targets

Obviously during filming and editing this, we have gathered a list of things to adapt and adjust for future drafts of our music video. Some of these being;

  • Get more footage, variety of locations
  • Use natural lighting in shots (outdoors)
  • Gather a few more narrative shots
  • Add some pink effects using premiere pro to the video to portray the love/pink theme and to make the video and locations pop.
