We had the great opportunity of getting feedback on our current music video drafts from film makers/animators Lenny and Elliott from Specsavers. They were a great help to us as they were able to show us some new ways of using the Premiere Pro software as well as giving us creative ideas and direction as to where to take our video from there.
Feedback and ideas:
- Keep our Premiere workspace organised eg. separating all of our footage into separate bins of when they were shot and what they are.
- give each segment of the video a different layer (narrative and performance) so that we can make changes to one without affecting the other and we can also select a whole segment much more quickly and easily.
- Lenny showed us how to add animations in After Effects which is a great new idea which we will implement if it’s possible as it adds to the childish nature of our video.
- They also showed us how to perfect our colour filters to exactly how we wanted them using curves to change the highlight/shadow colours.
The video below is a tutorial on how we may be able to add some more animations to our video:
