New performance shoot

I re-filmed for my performance on Sunday, I got footage from quite a few angles with different backgrounds.

Performance Shoot Plan

• I need to re film my performance shots as the last shoot was unsuccessful.

• I'll be using a different setting, with different outfits.

• My new location will be Greenwich Park:

This is because it's more versatile, it has a large amount of land, different trees and plants and a view of London in the background.

• The outfit will be something with a dark green colour as it fits with the nature theme.

Reflecting on my first draft

After showing my first draft and receiving feedback, I need to reflect on my video and what I need to consider when re-shooting and re-editing.

I think, so far the video does work and the cinematography is fine. However, I need to add more and re-shoot some shots.

The narrative flows and is clear, so I will stick to what I planned for it.

I need to remove shots that aren't needed for the video, like ones of Kiki walking from one part of the room to another. They take up time and don't add anything significant to the video.

Feedback for first draft of video

I agree that there's too many shots of her walking about which takes away from the concept of the video.

I agree that to fit more into the convention of indie folk I need to add filters to my video.

I agree, the room is a bit messy and maybe it could look better if it was more clean and so bring more focus to the character and the concept of the video.

Music Video First Draft

My First draft of the video, it has the performance and the last part of the narrative missing as I need to re-do those shoots.

Editing

First, I had to import all of my clips into Final Cut Pro x, where I could then drag them into the timeline.

I then had to pick the clips I needed and drag them into the timeline. 

I had to add the song into the timeline as well, this helps me to know where the shots are fitting with the song.

Narrative Shoot

Today's shoot was a success. The clips have great lighting,quality and framing. I have 116 clips which I will use in Final Cut Pro X to begin editing.

Some thumbnails from the clips.

Narrative Shoot Plan

07/02/2016

On Sunday I will be shooting for my narrative. It will be filmed in the house of my artist between the times of 11am-4pm. I'm allowing myself a lot of time because I have learnt from previous shoots that filming is time consuming because of the different angles I need to shoot from and having to stop and start. 

New Footage- Performance

Although I had already planed by scenes I wanted to test the different backgrounds to see if they might also work. Having a variety of backgrounds with the performance makes it easier to find what works.

Brick wall, an okay background but not as fitting with my genre.

                                      

Bench with grass and trees in the back- what I planned in my storyboard and works well with the genre.

Final Digipak

Final Poster

Digipak images

 Here are my edited digipak images that I now just need to put into the template. I have used similair adjustments to my previous shoot to keep the browny colours and faded effect. I also kept the same font but changed the logo slightly as my previous logo didn't suit these images.

Creating a new digipak

Because of a change of person, my digipak had to change. I couldn't make it very similar to my previous shoot due to the flowers not growing. However, I knew another place that had a lot of nature that I could use:

(Danson Park Gardens)

Of course, this time of year there isn't much colour because the flowers can't grow. However, there was plenty of trees and the environment was very natural.

New Images

The new images I took using different backgrounds and shooting from different angles and frames. I will now edit them in a similar way to my previous digipak and poster.
