Who did you work with and how did you manage the task between you?
In my group there was Ben Smith and Emma Rolf, we kept together as a group not having any falling outs by giving everyone equal roles. For example I directed the video, Emma got a prop list and got all the costumes ready whilst Ben made the story board and got the lyrics up and filmed the clip
How did you plan your sequence? What processes did you use?
To plan our sequence we used a storyboard to work out all the scenes with all the timings and what camera angles we needed to use to match the video. This enabled us to be as accurate as we could with our retake of the video and a actual music video.
What technology did you use to complete the task, and how did you use it?
To film the music video we used Sony HandyCams and a tripod, the tripod enabled us to have a steady smooth shot and enabled us to film tracking shots accuratly.We shot in random orders of the music video depending on the facilities and lighting available at the time. For example filming 0.45- 0.51 rather than following the video in numerical order. As a result this made sure we didnt lose any time.
What factors did you have to take into account when planning, shooting and editing?
When planning, shooting and editing we had to take into account a few things. One of things we had to take into account was where we would shoot a certain scene and what rooms were avaliable at the time. When editing we realised as a group that Ben was the best at editing using the Adobe Premier Softwear.
How successful was your music video copy? Please identify what worked well, and with hindsight, what would you improve/do differently? What did others say about your production?
On the whole I think our music video went pretty well with us getting the timing and accuracy of our music video as close the official vido. The song was fairly directed to the female sex so I think it would be better to have more of a Unisex song.
What have you learnt from completing this task? Looking ahead, how will this learning be significant when completing your music video, do you think?
When creating the video I feel that It was quite hard to directly sink and match the timings of your video to the video we were copying, you either wanted to film longe ror shorter. Also getting the right camera angles are incrediably important in making your video as acccurate as possible. I feel that the learning process from this prelim task will be useful when it comes to the real thing.
How does it compare with filming an opening to a film?
I personally found it a lot harder to make a music video rather than an opening of a film because as I mentioned you had to be so precise with camera angles and scene timings to get the most accurate video. You had a little bit of le-way on timings with your opening scene.
What are your strengths and weaknesses as a group member?
My strengths were taking the timings from the film and matching it with our film. Also I started to work on the story board and then directing the video. My weakness was my attendence towards the end of the year with sportimng commitments so therefore quite a lot was left down to Ben and Emma in my group.
Looking at the other group's videos which do you think were most successful and why?
I think a three groups did really well they were, 'What time is it' by Emma B, Charlie-ann, Richard and Sam. 'That's what I go to school for' by Dom, Megan and Ben F and 'And all these little things' by Nick, Max, Sam, Ben and Fred. These stood out to me because they are very accurate to the real video and all the miming is accurate in the clips too so this adds to the effect.
