Rough Cut

We produced a rough cut to allow us to see what the finished product will look like. To produce this we quickly put together the clips which we were going to use and did some editing, after the rough cut was put toegther we were then able to change the smaller details and add more effects. I think our rough cut clearly shows the quality that the final video will look like and gives a feel for what will be produced.



To complete the video we still need to edit more of the green screen by adding in a variety of interesting and colourful backgrounds, in some cases we also need to add in more clips as currently a few shots last too long or are ourt of focus, this may need us to re-film parts. As this is only a rough cut and is only to get a rough idea of the finished product, it does not last the full lenghth of the song whereas the actuall finished video will.

To make the backgrounds I used photoshop to build up an image useing layers. This allowed each part of the image to be seperate and become movable when put into final cut. This was simple and easy to do once i worked out that it would work in final cut however as each shot had to be different I needed to create many backgrounds for each shot to make sure that the video was constantly changing and keeping the audience's attention.

Shooting Schedule

As our music video is based using the green screen we have had to try our best to fit our spare time in college with the time that the studio is able to be booked out. This has been hard as not all of us have the same free time, luckily wednesday afternoons none of us have any lessons or out of college commitments which meant this was going to be our main shooting day, and other days would be during media lessons or break/dinner.

Wednesday 20th-
9.00-10.30- During the time of our usual lesson period.
12.15-4.00- Over dinner time and then from 1.05 onwards the use of our free time.

Friday 22nd-
10.45-1.05- Shooting during lesson time and then from 12.15 over dinner.





After uploading and editing some of our video we realised that we needed more footage. We hired out the studio in the brinkburn college to allow us to shoot footage of the parts we had accidently missed out. The days we hired out are:

Thursday 11th November-
13.05 - 15.10 - This was during our lesson and into the next period as we all had free time which had realised when booking the studio. This allowed us to shoot most of the corus which we were missing.

Friday 12th November -

10.45 - 12.15 - The footage we captured was to be used in the missing parts of the video which we did not have any footage to fill. This time was during a media lesson period.

Risk Assessment

For health and safety reasons our group came up with a list of all the possible risks that maybe a danger to us whilst producing our music video. We also came up with some problems we may come across if all the items we need to film are not available. We came up with some ideas as to how we would deal with and treat the situation if it was to happen and also what we could do to avoid it.

Story Board

We drew our storyboard and put it together in the form of a 'Animatic' to make it easier to follow and give us a visual prototype of what the music video will look like. This is what we produced:

I created a SlideShare to upload my analysis to make it easier for viewing.

Logo Design

This is the logo which we designed. I was given the task to make this in Photoshop and animate it. The process consisted of firstly making each shape in photoshop on a lime green background, once these had been saved as separate jpeg images it was then possible to import them into final cut. we used the chroma keyer to remove the green background on the images which allowed the backgounds to become transperant giving a more professional look to the logo. We used motion paths to make the circles move and useing the text editor bundled with Final Cut we were able to create animated text to appear down the side of the logo.

Bellow is the final logo I produced:
