A2 Advanced Portfolio- Completed Music Video


After a long time of editing (about 4-5 hours!) I have finally finished my music video! I firstly used iMovie as since last year it has become much more advanced with effective features which I was able to use simply, however after I had done 3 edits on iMovie, I decided that I needed a much  more advanced software: Final Cut X. This enabled me to add on lots of different effects, such as mirrors, flashes and layered images. I am thrilled with my final music video, I hope you enjoy it too...

Photoshoot for Album Cover/Magazine

In order to create my Digipak and Magazine Advert , I had to do a photoshoot of Lizzie, my performer. I used the green screen as well as taking some in front of the graffiti wall to create synergy with the video. Here are some shots that I took. I finally decided to use the fourth one for my music video as it looks edgy and 'nasty' and fits with the video.

What I Learnt From The Lipsyncing Task

Digital Technology:
Green Screening - Lighting, distance from camera, that dark colours work best 

Post Production (Cross-over with Digital Technolgy):
Green screen on green screen, layering, black and white, cropping, picture in picture, combining iMovie projects into one, importing music and video,

Creativity:
Props (Ice cubes, glass, beard, hats, changes of clothes- improvised), remaking of the old and making of the new- using an old video and copying it in order to see how it was made.

Research and Planning:
Video choice, dancing in different genres, storyboard and matching shots - very detailed shot by shot storyboard with timings. Constantly returning to plan to ensure correct shots.

Using conventions from real media texts:
Style of clothes/dance for rap/RnB genre. Hair/Make up, Facial expressions, Represent lyrics with dance ("park it like it hot"- the dance move). Camera and framing shots- over 20 shots in 30s, lots of cross cutting,
