Editing Log- Sesssion 4



In this session we were all there to help and the main focus in this session was to get as many shots as possible into the music video, which included several angles of the band members and Luke and Lucy both lip syncing.

 The idea was to piece together the smaller shots so that we completed the chorus of the song as this part of our video was incomplete. Learning on our mistakes and overcoming difficulties i found that this session was actually very successful and enabled us to complete the parts which we had aimed to do within the limited amount of time. 

 Moreover, we used several different tools on Final Cut Pro such as cutting the shots down to gather the correct parts of the clip. We also used the blade tool to create continuity from shot to shot and also tasking out the sound of the clip which isn't required. Furthermore, we tried to carefully create a relationship between the beat of the music and the visuals which was one of Goodwin's ideas. We created this by piecing together many quick cuts which switched from two different shots to exaggerate the sound of the instruments in the video. 

 Lastly, we made a huge change in making our video suit the genre conventions which were shown. Using the correct shots and emphasising the narrative of binary opposition (urban vs rural) we made our video much easier to follow and allowed Enigma to also be created as Lucy's face is not completely covered but neither can you see it. This was a use of Barthes' codes as the audience will now question and wonder who this mystery girl is and question what the meaning of the lyrics actually are.

Birtipop fashion and style

Kangol Bucket Hats: This particular style of hat became popular during the late 80's 'Madchester' era. They were specifically worn by Artists such as: Elton John, LL Cool J and the Gallagher brothers. Thanks to Oasis and The Stone Roses it stuck around as a Britpop staple. In 2016, the millinery still remains the perfect accessory for any festival fanatic. We can use this style of Fashion within our Music video to recreate one of the biggest fashion statements during the Britpop era. It will also show our knowledge on the fashion of the genre but also the fact that many Artists wear these styles of clothing during their Music videos. Many fishermen used to wear Bucket hats to protect from the rain whilst fishing. Many fans of the Britpop genre started to wear these in Manchester, to protect them from the rain during festivals and concerts. From there on, it has spiraled into a huge fashion statement of that era. Parka Jackets: The Parka jacket was first popularised

Editing feedback for our final rough edit

Image
This video shows  the specific information which we were given by our audience to help us make our music video even better, we also asked other people their opinion on our video and everyone else also suggested that we definitely need to improve the lip syncing. This is due to the fact that it is not in time and can be edited easily to make sure we change it so that it looks more professional. Besides this minor change we were given positive feedback on our music video and that they enjoyed both the introduction and ending where we included  small parts of the live performance.

Institutional information to use - Digipak Planning

Image
Within a digipak there must be information on both the institution and producers of the CD. From researching and looking through different magazine adverts and dikipaks I have found some of the must important pieces of information to include: -        - Firstly, the name of the record company is one of the most important pieces of information as it informs people who helped to produce the music. -        - Sometimes the names of the band members and the roles that they have in the band are included -        - It should include where the song was produced and created. -        - There should also be a section on the individuals who helped to create the designs and photographers. -        - The key institutional information should include the management of the band.
