First Edit Without The Lyrics...

Show above is the first edit of our music video without the lyrics (see previous post) This edit is longer than the one with the lyrics as we had more time to focus on solely the footage rather than having to consider where the lyrics are going to be placed. We are all rather pleased with how our music video is coming along so far and are looking foreward to seeing it develop.

This edit also includes a title which we have put in the foreground of one of our drone shots to see what it would look like.

What we like about this first draft?

• Our shots fit the song and look effective
• The realtionship between Alex and Jade is clearly established 
• The two contrasting feelings and emotions (which were discussed when the song was first chosen) are shown clearly through the juxstaposing shots of Alex and Jade together and then Alex on his own. 
• The juxtaposing shots fit the juxstaposing lyrics of the song
• The sound quality of this edit is mucb better than our first draft with lyrics. This will be becasue we rendered and exported it at a higher quality 

What could be improved to this first draft?

• There is a slight camera movment towards the end of our title shot, this would have been from the drone moving. We can easily improve this by trimming this shot slightly just so we can cut that little bit of jaunted movement out. 
• At the moement the music video focus on Alex looking back at the places he has been with Jade therefore, we need to add some of our other footage of Alex on his own in place where he feels isolated and can not realte to. 
• We would like to change the title shot, specifically the typography of the title and make it more relevent to our theme. This can be changed easily as we quickly added the title to see what it would like when we had a verison of our music video without the lyics. 
• Also, another major improvement we have is to add all our footage and try and finish it as we are very pleased with how it is looking so far and would like this to continue.
