Production Log WEEK 9

week 9

In this week both me and my partner Ravinder still had some work that had to be done the first task we had was to complete the evaluation for the music video so that we can get improvements from our teachers. The stuff that we had to think about is how do you think that the shots look and how do you think you could change the shots to improve the final outcome of the music video. We also had to discuss the copyright law with in our music video for example we were not aloud to take ideas from other music videos and claim them as our own to make the music video look and sound better. With this in mind i think that mine and Ravinder's music video was different and came out well because even thought we struggled to film at times we still got the story line across and the typography was different as well not many music videos have it in there own. The other task that we had to do was upload out final music video on YouTube so that the video can be posted on our blogs. When doing this we didn't really face any problems apart from when the computer crashed mid way thorough the uploading process. After this was posted we then began our new unit which would consist of having the music videos used.

Production log WEEK 8 deadline

This week was mine and Ravinder last week to complete the music video and fully edited. The music video had to be done by Friday the latest both me and Ravinder went over every shot seeing if we had to refilm anything again. The production of our video did take me and we did have to re film some scenes e.g. we re did the drum’s in the chorus because we didn’t feel like it was fast enough to sync with beat of the chorus. The one problem I had my self was the amount of rendering I had to do to crop or move across the timeline by 2 seconds. Every change we did we had to render and it because very frustrating. To overcome the amount of rendering we selected the clip we wanted to change and rendered it before we edited. The planes for the following week is do the evaluation and get feedback

Production log WEEK 7

In week seven me and my partner Ravinder continued on editing our work and i carried on developing the lyrics at the start of the week i was nearly done with the lyrics then in our second media lesson of the week i completed the lyrics once i synced the lyrics with the chorus on final cut we though it looked plain so we decided on putting 4 drum scene from diffrent angles as the drums is the main interments you could hear in the song. once we filmed the drums i went back on to final cut and sized them down to the same size and placed the videos in each corner of scene. once this was done we had to render the lyrics and see how they looked and in our own opinion we think they looked really good. once we did the chorus we started to edit the "meet up" scene in to the time line we edited them in and we both agreed that some shot should be re filmed and have more movements in. By our Thursday lesson the shots were re filmed and we completed that scene's editing.

Production log WEEK 6

In week six we began our editing on Final Cut Express we first did research in to the software as i didn't know the software as much as logic. I have used final cut but not alot to know alot about it. I would also have to use After effect cs6 to make the typography. Once we imported our footage in to final cut we started on editing the argument scene and looking at shots we think we have to film again. we decided on to film apart of the argument scene because we both decided we didn't have enough close ups to show the emotion between the lovers to show that they care about each other and have had a falling out because of a boy. Once we picked out the sots to film we looked back at our shooting script and explained the pub situation to our teachers Even though they were understanding about it they still would of liked us to film in a pub but we couldn't find any pub that would allow us so they settled on us using the other location. Mid week in this week both me and Ravinder filmed the close ups of the girls when they were arguing and we also filmed the "meet up" scene when Kulsoom is talking to a male and her girlfriend Ama get jealous. Once we got them scene filmed we edited them in and i began the typography for the chorus. I spoke to my teacher and he wanted me to make the lyrics to show the most important word from the line to be on the scene but as the developer i didn't think it would look good because taking the key word of the line could mean anything and in the chorus there is 7 lines if i was to make the chorus to only show the key word from the line the words on the screen would have to make sense and personally i think have all the words on the chorus looked better because i did try the key words but i didn't looks good as we wanted the chorus to  be the part that people would remember because its catches the people  attention
