Editing

Today we uploaded our shots from the camera to Imovie and started to edit our music video. The shots we made was put together to make the opening to the story a shown in the storyboard. we started editing together the shots of the narrative before the music cuts in. we also added the music in the background so we can sync the music to our sound.

filming

We started filming the performance part of our video and it proved harder than doing the story side as we had to lip sync to the camera. We asked another friend called adam to star in the video so we could create a lot of different shtos for each scene we sang.

The song were performing

We have chosen to use the "Booty Call" song because it will be fun and a challenge to remake this video in our own style. We chose it because we all relate to the song as young friends having fun.
We have already come up with a few ideas to make a great video and we should enjoy creating our own version of this video.

CREATIVE TECHNIQUES

Today we had a go at making a really short film. The scenario was one word "suspicion". The plot was to film the character looking like he is being followed and he starts to run. He runs into a clothesline followed by another man in black, the film then ends. We thought it would be quick and easy to make but even with a short film there is a lot to plan, for example location, scenes, costumes, props, actors expressions and interpretation.

LOOKING FOR A UNSIGNED ARTIST

We had a look at some unsigned bands on websites such as my space and youtube for a good song to make a music video to. We looked msotly at the unsigned band called " The Midnight Beast". We liked there music and we watched some of there youtube video's and thought it would be fun to cover, as well as being a challenge. We looked at most of there songs like; Booty Call, Ninja, les be freinds and hosue party. We picked Booty Call as we can make a video about a sleep over having fun. Myself and Sam will be starring in it with a few extras to help us out and together we will work well with the genre.

Media Brief

This year i decided to create a music video over a short film or trailer becasue i want a fun challenge and it will be different from the short film i made last year. We have already been looking at artists and finding some good songs. We are looking for unsigned artists with the songs which are easy to create a different type of video to. We will also look at signed artists to get a comparison of video's to make ours as professional as possible on a extremely low budget.
