insomnia - Music video

As the first part of our project, we had to come up with a song for the music video.
We went through a variety of different idea's for different songs such as "Super Mario" "Turn Down the lights" "Beautiful" and then finally come to a decision that we were going to to "Insomnia", which is a song by Faithless. Later after this we then went onto to taking photographic images of locations around Manchester that would be suitable for film footage, and for a clear idea of what we are going to do.

Before establishing that our music video was finished we decided to make a video interview. This interview consisted of letting a randomly selected audience and giving them a chance to watch our video and give us some feedback about the aspects of the video in which they think should be changed or improved. We interviewed each person individually and asked them "Is there anything you didn't like about the video?". Once each person had finished commenting we took their critisism's and changed certain aspects to suit our audience. There were two things in particular that we decided to change. We changed the dancing image of feet and cut it down so it didn't last as long and also we improved the lip sync to the best we could get it. To improve the lip sync we had to go out to different locations and film over and over until we had it all as good as it could get. Another way in which we decided to gather audience feedback was to post our video on youtube. This allowed us to gather feedback through comments and messages from liturally anybody around the world who watches our music video. we have also sent links to many people we know through social networking websites like facebook and myspace.
