Feedback from second draft of music video

The image above is a collage of words which were given during audience feedback when watching the second draft of our music video, from this it is clear that we should improve on:

• image quality
• some lighting
• and some of the syncing in the video

However, we gained positive feedback on:

• actors image
• looking professional
• clear narrative
• bright lighting

Second Draft of Video

The above clip is an upload of our second draft of the music video Don't Save Me. The video has been almost fully edited and all of the necessary clips are now within the timeline. There are a few glitches in the video such as one or two timing errors which we need to correct, along with some blank black flashes which should be filled with a clip or a clip already there to be extended to fill this gap.

Evidence of Editing

In the image above, the editing process of fading the top clip (of bella) into the bottom clip (crowd shot), here i am lowering the opacity of the first clip so that it appears on the bottom clip, this is so that the clip is less boring or repetitive and the artist can be shown throughout the video.

In the image above, the titles are being placed into the video. We edited the text and rotated it to fit to the clip, it is now in line with the clip and the windows in the scene, therefore when the train moves in the clip, the text looks effective and professional.

In this image above, i am cropping different clips of Bella to fade over multiple clips, the clips are of her miming which portray her clearly as the artist in the video. Here the video is rendering/processing which takes a few minutes dependent on the length of the clip.

Filming Progress

Today we asked Bella (main actress) to bring all of the clothing she was wearing on the day of filming, into school so that we could film her as if it was taken at the same time or same day.

We used a white photography screen for the white background to have her upon, and filmed scenes of her both miming into the camera, and crying into the camera.

Below are some print screens of some of the clips taken:
