Filming last scenes in the studio

These are some of the clips from when we filmed in the studio and then found our that we couldn't use the blue screen because our white balance wasn't turned on on the camera and ended up making our lead singer look yellow and the background look grey.

Editing our open scene on Final Cut Pro

Here are a few print screens of my group editing our opening of our music video which is the filming on the bus.


This first image is of our first opening scene which is on the bus. I've edited in the scene which I then cut to where the scene ends so that the next scene can be added.


We decided to have images of the singer having fun which we have edited in between each scene of the music video. These images will appear often when when the chorus of the song appears. We also added an effect in between the scene and the first image because when we played the scene, the jump cut to the images didn't fir in with the song. The effect we had was a fading to next scene effect which is called additive dissolve. The effect worked really good with the music video as it slowly fades the scene to the photos. I then added a few more images being in jump cuts which gave the effect of the images being one after the other and fading out.


We then added the real audio by locking our film and deleting the audio we had from the our filming and then dragging the actual music of the song to the editing panel.

Back Drop



We want a back drop for the filimg we do in the studio and thought we'd use a monnlight back drop because in the lyrics the word moonlight is used so we thoguht it would be a great idea to use a back drop like that as well as finding a monnlight that moves or have glitter falling in animation to match it to the lyrics.


My partner and I searching for a moonlight back drop.


This is our chosen back drop of a moonlight night.

Reckie

The term reckie for photographers, videographers and film makers is when they go take a look at potential sites for their shoots. This helps them to know what the lighting looks like at different times of the day, sound quality of the place, noise levels and what equipment they'll need to bring and where the electrical outlets are.

This is a reckie of all the locations we have decided to use for our music video which are the studio at college, the bus and out side.


This is the reckie for the studio which we will be using to shoot our photo shoot and the bridge of our song. The noise level in the studio is very low so no disruptions will interrupt the filming. The lighting is very low but there are lights hanging from the ceiling from either sides. Only a HD camera will be needed for this location as there are lights already here.



This is the reckie for the bus for our opening scene. For the bus scene we couldn't take a light because there are no electrical outlets as well as it being a small area to film in but we were using a HD camera which had high key lighting on helping brighten the scene up for filming.


Here in this image you can see that the high key lighting has helped brighten up the image unlike the image above. The bus was in a secluded are where Mayday bus service keep all their coaches so it helped to film as there were no noises.

Location Shots

Here are our location shots which are the places we've decided to film for our music video. the first image is of the bus we've hired to shoot our opening scene and the second image is of the studio at out college which we will be filming the bridge of the song as well as other scenes in between and the photos for our digipak and magazine advert.

Magazine Advert Template

For our Music video we have to create a magazine advert so we chose Q Magazine and here we have drawn up an idea of how the front cover will be laid out. We chose to have the whole cover of the magazine covered with an image of our singer from the waist above holding the letters that make up the word Domino.
