Tomorrow is our final deadline for the music video. We are currently fitting in a few last clips and making sure they are edited appropriately, e.g. cutting on the beat and intercutting certain clips. In the past two lesson we have added the new clips we filmed last Thursday to the first 2 and a half minutes of our video, introducing the 3 settings in the first 22 seconds (before the lyrics start). We have generally kept the order the same, though we have removed a few clips from what was shown in the rough cut and added new ones in their place. We have also added transitions to some clips, mostly fades and particularly within the first 30 seconds. We haven’t done as many fades after this time because there is more of a beat which requires sharp editing in order to fit with this. Within the first 90 seconds we have added a lot more clips of Ross and Bessie to create more of a narrative/ meaning to the video allowing the emotions of the song to be shown through the clips, this makes the artist easier to relate to and can allow the audience to build empathy for her.
We are currently working on the last minute and a half filling in all the gaps and correcting all the out of time lip syncing. By the end of the day we are hoping to have all the clips in order gaps filled so that in our final lesson tomorrow we can focus on colour correcting and perfecting transitions. We are all finding it quite stressful, as yesterday we went to ask a media teacher when the room with our work in was free, we were told it would be during our lunch but when we went to carry on editing there was a class in there. So we have had to try and fit the remainder of our work into a shorter period of time, today we are going back again at lunch because the room should be free today, we also stayed during break to finish the section we were on.
