Note to examiner.

The Youtube Evaluation videos uploaded to the last two posts have been uploaded wrongly by Youtube hence the grey emboss style at the beginning of the videos, this only effects the image of me and the sound is in no way altered throughout the videos.

Thank you for your time, and please enjoy my blog

The Final Video.

This is my final video For the media music video project, this is with the amendments all in place.

FINAL MUSIC VIDEO

Audience Research Questions

1) What do you like about this video?

Jo - I like the way the video flicks between a range of scenes to create one continuos picture, i like how these creates tension within the video.

2) What do you think of the filming?

Jo - I like how there is a good difference between what seems to be the hand held camera bits of the video and the HD camera sections.

3) If i was to remake this video what should i add?

Jo - Maybe more of the actress, I know it is meant as flashbacks but i like the scenes with her in them.

1) What do you like about this video?

Tracy - I like the way the video is laid out, and the effect gain by flicking through everything at speed.

2) What do you think of the filming?

Tracy - I think that maybe some camera angels could be better planned out but overall it works.

3) If i was to remake this video what should i add?

Just more of everything, everything could be a little better.

Music Video First. (Without amendments

This is my original final Music video for the project though after a lot of criticism from my peers I have since altered and corrected everything they have suggested and made it better in many ways, this is what they said. 

- I would not be alloud to use the "Sony Music Entertainment" at the beginning of the video, as the video is not directly endorsed by them and the permission they have given me does not state that i need to do this in any way.

- The video is meant to have a contrast between the low definition handheld style filming throughout the flashback scenes but at the moment the quality is poor on all footage, I need to film the singing scenes and all the other scenes (excluding flashbacks) again to gain this contrast that i need.

- The lip syncing needs to be better by both editing it in time with the music more and with the movement of my mouth, I need to actually sing it out to make my face look believable. this is a big part of the music video and when it is right it will look really good!

- I have good footage for the flash backs but i need more of it because at the moment the video is repeating itself a lot and that is not what the audience wants to see!

- The male character needs to be framed better in the scene with the guitar, as half of his head is cut out of frame.

- Maybe cut the song length down a bit 6mins is a lot of song to find footage for.

My Evaluation On This Video

Photos of filming.

Getting the lighting right.

Setting up camera location, height, levels and working on the camera angels.

Setting the focus, working out which part of the object should be most in focus.
