Editing Process

At the start of the editing process we had a lip syncing lesson with miss excel in order to show us how to sync our music with our footage. This lesson was obviously very helpful when it came to editing footage and lip syncing for ourselves.

After filming for the first time i was not at all happy with the footage i had produced. Whilst i had produced some good scenery shots to establish my setting and mise en scene, my lip syncing shots where very poor and there wasn't a lot to work with. But as i come to editing i ended up using some of the shots in my final production.

My story line played out by abigail and alex worked very well throughout my editing process, they way i filmed my footage allowed to me do little sequences of their action creating depth and interest in my piece.

It was suggested to us that we film our artist lip syncing the song all the way through as when i came to the editing process it would be easier. In doing this i found that this was really helpful and that once all the part where lined up on the timeline it was very easy to chop and chain through narrative shots and different lip syncing shots.

At the very end of my piece i chose to use and effect of fade to white to give my music video a finished feel.
