Task 10- Filming and Editing (creative journey)


21/10/2015
Below is my production schedule for my filming and editing and planning stages of my music video:

Since creating this production schedule I have kept to deadlines and ensured that I am organised and prepared for what I will need to do that day or week.

Myself and Darcy recently started filming in the castle grounds with Faye and Mark as shown in the pictures below. We  had to film in 2 different locations that include; Landau's recording studio, Tamworth's Castle Grounds. Even though our coursework piece does not require a script, we still had to research, plan and put together a storyline because we decided to do one that was both narrative and performance based. For this, Faye, the actress, is mainly singing in the recording studio but also when she is in role, she will sing the odd line of the song in order to combine all of the video together and to not leave it separated.



Whilst filming we had a few problems with member of the public walking into shot and we were filming next to a busy road so there was a lot of noise from traffic. Despite this we were able to film what we needed in the time we had and have now completed the majority of our filming. We have also  uploaded the footage we have onto the Mac's and have begun editing on Adobe Premiere Pro.

Whilst editing our first cut, I have found that one of the scenes we meant to film in the recording studio has not been filmed. In addition to this another two shots, that were meant to be edited together to make Faye and Mark look like they are sitting on a bench together, does not work as we filmed from two different angles and on different days. The image below shows what the edit looks like currently. Therefore we have found that we will need to re-shoot these scenes in order to follow the storyboard and overall story line of the video. The first edit is also now complete here.

We have now finished filming and re-filmed the relevant scenes. I have edited the shots that we have re-filmed, the only problem that I have had is the more recent shots were filmed in the  late afternoon meaning that the lighting compared to the original shots is a lot more low key. To ensure that this looks professional I have edited the shots to make them brighter and changed the order to some of the shots to make sure that the narrative makes sense and is all filmed in similar light.

I have been working on editing my music video for the final draft for the past couple of weeks, compared to the first draft I have added in and edited shots, added transitions and made sure that the narrative makes sense. My final draft is here. I will now be working on my print artifacts, most of the images for my cover and poster will taken from my video as to create synergy.
