Set and Costume

 

To know what the weather forecast was going to be on the day when I planned to film I looked for the weather in advance.

Youtube Videos of Final Cut Pro

In order to produce my music video I had to use Final Cut Pro on the Apple Mac, however as I have never used the software before I did not know how to use it. To produce my product to the best standard of quality, I watch video tutorials on YouTube of people using the software explaining how to use a certain element of it like importing videos onto the software so you can start editing. 

One of the videos I watched was how to split my screen up, so I could play more than one video clip as the same time. By using the split screen I thought it would make my video more unique and different, as well as appealing to watch.

Like the split screen to make my video stand out, I reversed some of the footage that I had captured and embedded it within my narrative to make effective. Since I wanted to reverse the footage I had to make sure that it would actually fit in with the narrative I was trying to create. I got the idea to reverse some of my video footage from the video Breezeblocks by Alt-J.

When I uploaded my videos from my camera onto Final Cut they had sound in the background which I did not need as I had the song playing therefore the song was not clear because of the audio from the videos. As I have never used the software before I did not know how to take the sound off, which meant that I had to watch a tutorial on how to do it which was very helpful.
