MVID: Final Cut

Here is my final cut for my music video. Below I have stated how I have changed the video since the last rough cut. 
...

...
What I have changed since the last rough cut:
1. Colour corrected all the footage of the girl alone after the breakup with a light blue tint to create a cold feel to the video. 

2. Added a CU of a burning photograph of the couple as the ending closing shot. Then I layered that shot with an ELS of the girl walking in the distance at utopolis in Kirchberg (3:44). 

3. Added a CU of a burning photograph of the couple at the start of the video to put the narrative a bit more into some context. Then I layered that shot with an ELS of a street with a zebra crossing in Kirchberg with cars passing by.  

4. Added more colour correction on the lip syncing shots e.g. made the redscreen background shots pink instead of red. 

5. I have changed one really grainy CU shot of the girl character's face to a better non-grainy CU shot of the girl character's face (2:56).

6. I have added some layering to the shots where the lyrics go "He's floating in my bloodstream now", for example by adding a CU shot of the girl character swimming underwater over a shot of the girl character dancing in the club and over a MLS of the ex boyfriend walking alone at night (2:08).

7. Added a MCU shot of the artist lip syncing near the very end of the track over a quick fast editing pace section (3:15 - 3:16).

8. Took away the colour correction on one set of the intimate footage where the lyrics are "Holding me close, breathe on my skin, lips down my body", I thought the colour correction there looked quite false and edited on. I wanted to create the look that it was colourful lighting creating that effect. 

9. Changed the shot at 2:04 - 2:07 by adding a LS of the city at night and duplicating the shot of the blurry lights which are all layered over a MS of the artist lip syncing with pink long curly hair. 

MVID: Final Rough Cut

Here is my final rough cut. I have stated how I have reflected on audience feedback and also just the general things I have added or changed to the video since the last rough cut. 

Link to Audience Feedback:
After getting audience feedback for rough cut 4, I found that:

1. It was really helpful to know who my mum and my sister thought was the target audience for my video (females + males aged 15-18) because this is quite correct.

2. My mum and my sister didn't exactly think there was a problem with this but even so, I thought I should break up the long drawn out breakup scene with some other shots of the couple breaking up.

3. They said they thought the layering was very striking and impressive so I decided to keep all the layering that I have in the video so far because clearly it got a great response from the audience and it's very striking and impressive to the audience - I will therefore add some more layering into my video. 

4. I am not going to mess with the editing pace much more I don't think due to the feedback I got, I decided to make the section between 0:55-1:10 cut faster to the beat while the beats are building up to the drop which is on the line "touching me gently". 

5. I found it useful to know that the narrative I am trying to portray is coming across to the audience and that it is clear everything is from the female character's point of view. This is exactly what I wanted the audience to think.

What I have changed since the last rough cut:
1. Added some re-filmed footage of the break-up scene (inside in Utopolis Kirchberg) to go with the existing old footage of the couple break up (infront of Philarmonie - outside). 

2. Added some new footage of the couple doing intimate things together (couple flashback) in red lighting (colour gels created that effect). 

3. Re-edited the section between 0:55-1:10, so that there is fast pace editing for longer (from immediately when the beat starts to build up before the drop).

VODCAST 4: Journey Summary

Here is a vodcast I made with a trial student for A Level Media. I made this video to help me figure out what is missing on my blog at this current time and to help this girl trial student understand what A Level Media entails and what kinds of things you have to do in it. I summarise everything that I have done so far and everything I need to still do. I also explain about the music video production process and how I created my latest sample scene.
