new shot idea

During the music we are experimenting in new ways to change between shots other than transitions we have now decided for the mans lyrics we are going to zoom in on our female performers eye so you can see the male performer then we will coninue to zoom in until it is in the male performers location.

Rough Cut Q10

group11: we like it. it works well with the genre. looks like it will tyrn out to be a really good video. looks very professional.

Claim For More Shots

we need to shoot some more shots of our performer. At the moment we have shots our performer but all in one location. We need to shoot in some other locations because at the moment it is looking very dull. We also need to reshoot the male part of the song where he does his vocals. We do have some test footage of the male's vocal part but we need to reshoot it as when we tested it we did not have the full lyrics.

Changes to Story Line Due To Lyrics.

We chose not to go with our original concept for the video which was story telling and decided to do a performance video instead with shots of various locations and the performer being followed by the camera while singing. the reason for the change is because before we had the actual lyrics we decided on the storyline , however when we myspaced the Artist "Santogold" and got hold of the original lyrics we realised that our storyline did not actually correspond with the lyrics , therefore we had to change our story line.

Pictures of Location

These pictures were taken on location whilst filming.

Editing

We are now in the editing stages of our rough cut and have been experimenting on different effects to allow us to have mainly black and white shots with enhanced colour in them. after a few attempts we now are confident on our ability to use this effect and we are happy with the way it looks.
So we are adding effects to our shots and getting the music in time with the shots in preparation for our rough cut deadline.

New shots

We are now attempting to use a lot more shot movement as it makes the video more visually interesting. For other videos with a lot of camera movement look at the video on our blog by Sway called Little Derick.


We have also started to use a fish eye lens as we prefer the effect it has on the video especially if the performer moves towards the camera.
