Editing our Radar Love music video

When we began editing our footage we were confident that we had enough shots to use. We ended up having the perfect amount meaning that we had room for errors. We had many shots of the drumming as it took up about three quartes of the music video. We did have to loop some shots we used but it was unoticable as we used bridge editing and played two clips at the same time. The reason why i used this editing technique was because it made the audience feel that the band were palying togetehr and helping each other.

On the first day of editing we managed to get the clips we needed and delete all that we didn't need. This gave us a guideline of what shots we needed to use and what we thought were the best. We managed to sough a few clips so that they fited the tempo os the music video. We also lined up the clips with the instruments that were playing in the song so that we had a rough idea of how much footage we had to work.

On the second day of editing we managed to complete our music video as it just meant fitting the video in time with the song.

Overall i'm very pleased with the editing we did and how we managed to get it compelted so quickly. Also i feel that my editing kownledge has expanaded and i now know different editing techiniques that entice the audince into watcyhing the text.

Filming our Radar Love music video

FIlming our Rdar Love music video wasn't a hard challenage as we had all previously had experience with filming and story boarding our shots. However this task was just about performance and getting the right shots. It was nothing about Narrative. Which is where i believe out group got sidetracked. We spent a large amount of time worrying about the location of the music video rather the performance. Although on the day of filming we managed to get the right shots we needed and in the perfect amount of time.

Although it was a large mistake worrting about the location more than the performance we realised this on the day and managed to get all the shots we needed.

I feel that the groups organisation skills could have been improved and I will remember this for when I begin my A2 music video project in a few months. On the other hand, I think we worked well on the day of the shoot and managed to successfully shoot what we needed too.

Next lesson we aim to start editing the footage and piecing it together with the song. I am more than confident that we got enough footage on the day meaning that we have room to get rid of some footage that we may not like and replace it with other clips.

Different Camera Shots - Radar Love (Drums)

The drum solo of Radar Love which takes place from 0:00 till 0:23 there will be a variety of different camera shots of the drums whilst the solo is taking place. The different types of shots that my group will use are:           

                                        

Bass Pedal


This is a shot of the bass pedal being pressed. I hope to use this shot in my radar love music video.


This shot will be used after the drums have been played. It will be played idn time with the bass pedal sound in the Rarad Love music video.
Birds Eye Shot 

This is a birds eye shot showing the whole drum kit, i would like to use this shot in the music video as it shows the audience the whole drum kit. 

I would also like to use this shot but showing the whole band instead of just the drummer. 

 

Medium Shot

This is a medium shot of the drummer's upper body and the symbol in the foreground. I want to use this shot in the video but am not sure where yet. I think this shot emphasises the music and instruments being played.

I may use this shot in the video but possibly on another instrument.
