Drunk Music Video Rough Edit


Drunk Music Video Rough Edit Review
 Our video is about a break up between a guy and girl. The video starts off with the guy thinking about all the great times him and his girlfriend had together and ends up him being alone. He is quite upset about it and throughout the start of the video is all of the memories they’ve had, towards the end is him on his own if their house doing the things they usually do together.

My role was being the director, to ensure everything was there on time and everything was going the way we planned. I had to communicate with the cameraman so everybody was within the frame. Also to get everyone else’s opinion whether where we set up was good enough and if we needed to get a few shots to ensure we got the best quality we could.

I think all of us worked well in our roles. I did try my best to make sure everything went to plan. Everyone was on time and we got all of the clips we needed, if anything we got more than we needed. When we got into town we had ideas for other shots that we didn’t plan and we had enough time to get everything done, so I think we all decided well. If I could make any improvements I would go back to the clips we shot at Emma’s and film them again as I don’t think they are as good quality as the clips we filmed in town. This was because it was our first time filming any of the shots so we were getting used to doing everything we needed to do.

There are quite a few improvements I need to take on board when editing my final music video.  Most of the clips need a few seconds cutting of the start and / or the end. The ones that need improving the most are Emma’s lip singing and the passage of time clips. To improve Emma’s lip syncing I just have to move the clip back about a second or so to get it to fit with the music. With the passage of time clips I sped up will need to crossfade to give it the effect of time passing. Also for all the clips I will need to colour correct them all to look the same because the clips from Emma’s house are not as good quality as the clips from town. Other than them few improvements I think the rest of the footage is really good and I’m happy with most of the clips we have.
