Task 4 - Preliminary (6)

Evaluation
How professional is the finished preliminary task?
  • I believe that the finished project is professional. My group tried our very best to recreate the first minute of the real music video and I think that we managed this. We used similar locations to what were in the real music video and we wore some of the same costumes and accessories that were in the real video.
What are the shortcomings of the video?
  • One shortcoming of the video is that during the first shot when Lucy and I are lip syncing, she starts at the correct moment but I begin slightly behind her. This is a shortcoming as it does not look like we are in time with the track.
  • Another shortcoming is that we did not have access to every prop that was used in the real video. An example of this is a skateboard which is used in the very first shot.
How useful was the process of the preliminary task?
  • The preliminary task was a very useful process as it gave me an idea of the effort that has to go into filming a music video. Creating a music video requires lots of planning for things like the shots you will take, the costumes you will wear and the place you will film in among other things. This is why the preliminary task was useful.
What have I learnt?
  • From the preliminary task, I have learnt that it is important to prepare for when you are going to create a music video. Preparation goes into a lot of aspects of a music video and it is important that everything is planned beforehand so you remain on schedule when filming the video.
What problems did I encounter and how did I rectify them?
  • When it came to the editing stage, my group realised that we had not filmed one of the shots that was in the real music video. This was a problem as our preliminary task became shorter in length than the real video. However, this problem was rectified by slowing down some of the shots we had filmed. This made our preliminary task play at the same rate as the real music video.
