Research towards our own making

Editing

We've now started to add transitions and effects to our music video towards the beat of the soundtrack. We've started to use effects such as change in contrast & colour balance, light rays, invert, edge etc...
We've also modified speed at a varitey of different motions, such as fast, slow and reverse. To try and get the best outcome we can get towards the making of our project.

reaserch

during the editing stage we came across the real faithless vidieo which in some ways similar to our idea so we took a look a some music videos like insomina such as the verves bittersweetsyphany which allowed us to change our idea to adapt it without changing all the footage we had already

editing

we have all of our footage and for the past two week we have been get our last few shots needed which we noticed we needed whilst we have been in the editing suite.
the editing is coming along quite well all our shots flow well with each other giving good continuity.
we have a nice array of shots from diffrent angles which all blend well.

video, poster and cd cover

The main theme for our production is time and throughout the video there our images of clocks which link to the whole idea of insomnia. we decided to keep this clock theme running throughout our project. Our cd cover is liturally the inside of a clock with all the sprockets etc. Our magazine advert includes the image of a clock too which reinforces the feel of insomnia. The way in which the magazine advert and the cd cover could help to sell our video is because we chose to take screengrabs of different images from the video which can help to interest the audience and possibly make them want to see the whole video. Therefore this means that this could lead to sales of our production. Also the use of urban locations throughout our video could also have the possibility to attract many audiences from within these urban areas or even people from outside these area's that are interested in how we have used these different locations.

filming

today we went to the renaissance car park in manchester city centre where we found a nice location. We decided that this was the best place to film the lip sync. We gathered shots from many different areas of the car park in attempt to mix it up and create different background images
