This year’s editing process was much more controlled and difficult compared to the level of filming and preparing we have done for last year’s thriller film opening. Firstly we had to plan a shot by shot to pick one artist and working in a team we had to make compromises and work together in order for us to make the whole pre-production process a lot easier. One of the group members suggested that we should work with a student at the college who is a rapper and we thought it would be convenient and original to help him create a music video. There was a lot of work that went into the planning we had to think of locations and establish a style that matches with the themes of the chosen track or song our storey board was in detail explaining the shot type the location and how long it will be until it cuts to the next shot.
We also had to shoot in longer lengths as we had to film base tracks were the artist had to lip sing to the whole song in one shot in order for us to edit and match the footage to the track of the song correctly and effectively. Communication was another key aspect as my group has decided to film in various locations we had to pre-plan days and hours when and where to film.
During the process of our editing we constantly asked for people advice and thoughts of the clip and from what we have edited so far our teacher has advised us to use more overlapping and dissolves if we want to establish a common style to our music video. We were also discussing and trying out different types of special effects we could use on our footage such as solarizing or colouring adjustment making certain locations such as the forest base tracks brighter and intensified to match with the artist image. The Annoying Wanderer wears a lot of statement shirts and is attracted to rather bright and vibrant colour and we thought that we could incorporate this into our video.
