Week 9

This week me and my group have finished editing our music video and we have all contributed but we were making, sure that the music video was good and we have to a film a few shots so when we edited our music video it would match the scenes, so when we edited our music video we left some gaps so we knew what scenes to film and what other shots we can replace so it would make sense. We also made sure that we left no gaps and we had no drop frames and we also had to fix the lip syncing because it was a bit of but in the end we managed to fix it due to some assistance from the teachers and we asked them for feedback on our finished music video and they said that it was good so overall me and my group did a good job and we did it on time and we are happy with our music video. On Friday we started to look at the next unit it was a bit like we had to evaluate our, own performance within our music video and we started to discuss the watershed after 9pm and it was interesting, we also discussed the acts of animal cruelty and explicit language being used, and the way the actors act in there videos and how it can influence the society.

I’m all update with the coursework because we just finished our music video and we started the next unit hopefully I will be update with that unit.

This week we did face some problems with the lip-syncing in our music video but we managed to overcome this issue by tightening up the scenes so, now when you watch the music video it will now have a flow to the video.

Next week we are continuing with the new unit we will have time to start evaluating our performance alongside doing to some research and doing a research log.

Week 8
This week me, Darren and Omar have been editing our music video we have all contributed a lot for example me and Darren took it in turns to edit because we thought that it would be fair and Omar was the one that was in charge of doing cutting to the beat because we thought that he would do a great job and also he knows his music and we all try to give ideas so the scenes can match. We are all on schedule but we did face some problems because some of the lip-syncing was off and we had to re film some shots because some of the scenes did not match with the other scenes so in order for the scenes to match we had to re film so the music video would have a rhythm to it. Also we added some effects to the music video so it would enhance the mood of the song.

But we fixed this problem because when we edit our music video we can see that the video is coming into shape and the scenes are matching but we did face another problem and it was, cutting to the  beat but we figured it out and now when we watch our music video it has cutting to the beat so at each stage it cuts to the beat.

Next week we will be finishing off our music video then we have to export it to YouTube and I think that the music video would come out great because our group have done an excellent job.

Week 7 

This week me and my group have been continuing to edit our music video, so far we are at 2 minutes and the music video is coming along well and we are on schedule because when we edit we take our time because we want our video to be good and we ask the teachers to watch it or sometimes our classmates and they give us positive feedback and from there we make the change meant. also we showed Mrs Lowndes because we needed to show it and she said that it was good but we should try to change some scenes so it can be in sync with the video and also we may need to re film some of the lip-syncing because some matches but then some doesn't. Me and Darren take it turns to edit because it would be a fair and because Omar is good, with music he is in charge of cutting to the beat, so whenever he presses the space bar that's when me or Darren depending on who is editing will cut to the beat also in our group we try to switch some scenes to see if it will work and some do work well. We had some problems with some of the scenes because we made the scenes longer when we could of shorten them down. So next week when we edit we will shorten the scenes because then it will give the video a flow and we will experiment with the scenes to see what will work.

Week 6

This week me and my group have contributed by uploading our footage onto final cut express that we have filmed during the half term and from there we have been editing our music video by adding different  scenes but combining them to make the music video more in a chronological order but before we could of done that we had to download our music track so where we had lip sync, we had to match the music with movement. If we need to re film any scenes we will have to re film because we have some gaps in our footage. When we were editing we were making sure that our shots that we filmed cut to beat because if it didn't the music video won't make sense, so we had Omar counting and telling us when we should cut to beat also me and Darren and Omar would take turns to edit because it would be fair and also we have all contributed.

We are on schedule, because we have the work and we are all update with our work and we have all managed our time and and we don't have any issues with the work

We had some problems with final cut express because it was quite some time since we had, used final cut express but now we are gaining our knowledge of how to use final cut express again we had forgot some of the shortcut letters and how to cut and in general how to use the tool but we have been editing for three days and we now know how to use it.

But we did overcome this situation because we know how to use final cut express now because we have been editing for three days and everyday we are learning a new technique about final cut express.

My plans for the following week is to continue to edit our music video and if we need to re film then, we will re film any scenes.
