Construction: Editing

This post is where i will discuss how i went about the editing of my music video and the process that went about using in order to create the music video.

At first i started to gather together all of the footage and videos that i had captured as well as the song that i will add into edit the video. the first step was finding the song and then adding hat into premier pro.

I then added all of the footage and then started to drag audio only clips in to start the creation of the music video in line with the also dragged in audio file of the song.

These clips are evidence of the split screen effect that i have used throughout my video in which the main actor features in the same shot twice this is by filming the two clips and then cropping one half of the screens way and then adding the other clip over the top of the other to create this effect of the main actor watching himself in the past.

This image shows me scaling the frame size of the shots to fit the screen size so that the footage is viewable to the best quality and size.

This image shows me editing the speed of some of my clips in order to either slow down or speed up clips so that it add the effect of slower motion to the clips of the pair holding on and spinning.

 

These images shows me editing the brightness and contrast and al of the lighting effects  of clips as well as also being able to edit the colours used and effect in order decrease the brightness of my clips as a few were too bright to fit in with the music video.

This is the effect i then used to change the lighting of the lip syncing i titled both spotlights and full directional lighting but in the end decided on the directional effect to lighten the whole image/shot.

This is then the effect i have used at the end of the video which is fading the shot to black in which the last shot of the video  will dissolve into a black screen to show the finish,

This is the Exponential fade effect that i have used at the end of the song to slowly fade the music out rather than have an abrupt ending at the end of my video.

This is then the image of me rendering the entire workspace of the video for it to then go on to be exported and uploaded 

within this test filming the practicing and trialling of the split screen effect is used and can be seen both with success and failure with some shots not working due to backgrounds or lighting.

This is showing the original footage that i just quickly put together along with the song in order to assess the footage and review what else needed to be done for filming.
