Final production and analysis

 

Above is our finished music video for the song Frauds by Scarlet Harlots.

Looking through the marking criteria for my media text I can see i need to show a lot of technical skills that I included in my media, and below is a few more interesting examples of these.

• Framing a shot,including and excluding elements as appropriate:

• Using a variety of shot distances as appropriate:

• Selecting mise-en-scene including colour, figure, lighting, objects and setting:

• Using sound with images and editing appropriately for the task ("name dropping"):

Re-shooting, re-editing

Once we had shown the rough cut and got our feedback, the next step was to update our video using criticisms and postitive feedback we were given.

No one commented on individual clips they disliked, instead giving positive feedback on select clips such as close ups on the masks whilst infront of the garages, and the chorus. This influenced us to not go and film anymore clips, especially as we have a lot of scenery and other smashing shots on our computers ready to fill any gaps in the video. Instead we decided to focus more on the editing.

Again the editing recieved a lot of positive reviews, as people were fond of the quick pace and special effects. We decided to use more effects such as 'solarise' to keep the video varied (seen above), as well as adding in more of the popular effects including 'mirroring'. We also sorted out the audio issues quickly, simply clicking on the speaker off button for the whole of audio layer 1 and keeping the second, as you can see below:

     

As you can see the editing and alterations I have made to my video are not very big problems, which leads me to believe that all previous work on things such as storyboards and shooting were effective, and have made the process of re-editing much easier than I first thought.
