Plan january

For January  we plan to have a complete section of band footage that we can then begin to edit. we hope to have re-filmed a lot of our "lets make out" montage and plan to finish editing it and make sure that the mise en scene fits in with the video and add more consistency to the video. this will allow us to go full steam into editing.

we need a lot more focus on a main character to give the video more narrative. 

UPDATE!!! !!!

Here is an update of were i am with my music video!

I have filmed a fair amount, around 2 hours worth. however as for editing we have  about two minutes worth. So far it is looking rather average, the main problem i am facing is the "mise en scene" within the video. It doesn't have an effective consistency throughout, i feel we have too many locations and far too many characters for their to be any sort of narrative. I know that this was the desired effect, but i feel at the moment its starting too get a bit too busy. Instead we need a select few character's and some definite locations. On the upside, at the moment the lip sinking is going very well and fits effectively with the lyrics. We also have a good minute of editing that we can use, however their is still a lot more work to do and some re shooting to be done.

Tad and i have looked at another students work, "Amber" as she is doing a similar upbeat music video to us. we looked at her editing and the way in which she had made two parts to her video with a narrative and band footage, we realised how effective this was and realised that we need to get on and film our band scenes so that we can see how it will look for us and allow us to have further progression.
