In this preliminary task we made a lot of problems but hopefully we could overcome them in our real thing. As a group, I feel we could have been more creative coming up with ideas for this specific song. We didn't think outside of the box, we had chosen to do the classical 'naration' with the music video. I do feel we could have used more jump cuts in this video, however, I also think the choice of the song was not suitable for us. If we had chosen a better song then perhaps we could have included more variety of shots and transitions. The jump curs at the end of the video didn't work well with the overall production. We were trying to make the cuts on the words but that didn't work. Also the lipsinking was not perfect near the end of music video. I also think we could've done a better job if we had a better actor to work with (I was the actor).
On the other hand, there were some parts rhat worked well such as tje starting of the music video. The close-up of the make-up on the table sets the whole location and the mood of the music video. Another idea i felt worked well was the cut outs of models and celebs used- this showed she was trying to find herself (also matched with the lyrics). Also the transition from one location to another worked really well. The transition from the bedroom to the shof in the roses and then back again. The slow motion running shot also went with the song. Another thing I was really pleased with was that we had enoughrecorded for music video. Our camera woman (Mahida)shoted extra footage just in case we needed to used it, the camera wasn't turned off at any point. Mahida had also recorded the points where I messedup and laughed just in case they worked but than the real ones.
For the real one, we want to make surr that we choose the right song and think about all the options we could use. I also want to make sure that we have extra footage just in case we don't have time to re-record. We also want to make sure that ww don't make the same mistake again.
