W/C 12th December

This week i filmed the studio parts of the music video, which were in the green screen studio.

The reason it is filmed in agreen screen studio is the green makes it easier for editing in AfterEffects.

Once i had filmed, i then needed to get the footage off the tape, which meant recording it onto the computers which is time consuming because you have to watch all the fottage back for it to record, and then it had to 'render' before you can save the footage.
When thats done, you can then drop the file into premiere, and begin to edit, like with the fottagei had film on location, i had to cut out all the bits that were of no use to me and then drop the good shots into the correct places on to the time line with releveance to the song.
This task was made even more difficult because there was faults with premiere, which meant that for unforeseen reason the programme would suddenly close with no warning, so whateveri had done unsaved would be lost and i wuld have to do it again, and the time given to complete the task was limited as there was times when the programme would shut every 2 minutes.
However with perciverance, i managed to get the task done, and ableto finish the first draft of the music video.

Magazine Advert (First Draft)

Music Video (Draft1)


This is the first version of my music video i have created. It is simply the footage running in continuous flow. I am going to get audeince feedback from the target audeince in order to find out what more they would like to see in the video, and then act on this to improve it, and bring it to the standard they would like.

W/C 5th December

This week i have been able to start editing the footage i have film.

Firstly i needed to look throught the footage and delete part that were of no use to me, as they were bad quality or the fottage i accidently filmed as i left the camera recoding for example. This was time consuming because i meant i had to watch all my footage all the way through to find out what was good and what i didnt need, and then ensuring i deleted the correct parts.

Once i did this, i could then begin to put the footage into the right order that i needed, on the timeline on Preimere. In order to do this, i had to play the music and move the clip around on the timeline to the relevant place in the song.

W/C 28th November



Over the weekend i was able to film, and this week that i have been back in school, i have uploaded all the footage on to the computer and began to edit it using Premiere.

I first had to copy the files from the camera to the computer and save the files ina  suitable place. then i had to imporat all the clips into premiere, so could work with them. and then finally drag them onto the timeline. All together, this took one whole lesson, and due to the strikeon the 30th, this also meant we lost a lesson.
