Editing 3!!

For the editing this time I edited the hyper lapse which was a very long process as there were 60 photos which all had to be imported in order and the size had to be changed to fit the size of the video, all the pictures imported as 5 seconds long so one they were all in order i had to select all of them change the duration to 0.5 seconds to fill in the gap we needed , after doing this the clips became hardly visible unless you zoomed in, instead of moving every clip by themselves I looked at some tutorials and learnt the fast way of removing the gap, I had to add a colour matte layer drag the clips on top drag them back of select the colour matte layer again right click and click delete ripple which brought all the photos together with no gaps. this has aided my premiere skills as I can teach other people to make hyper lapse the easier way and will help me in the future.

Editing 2!

Me and Ollie spent 2/3 hours editing which has given us a really good understanding of what we have left to film so we can put it into the edit and hopefully complete the edit. When we realised we had finished the editing with the clips that we had, we thought it would be best to play around with the title as it looked very boring to start with as it was plane white writing that faded in and out of frame but we wanted something more interesting and professional so we accidentally me across the graphics menu on Adobe Premiere Pro and we found a very good template we decided to use, but we need to discuss it with the rest of the group as we think it doesn't fit the mood of the video.

This is the intro me and Ollie produced
So as our draft was rendering and exporting we took the time to go through the lyrics and write down ideas we could put in place to complete the video, we made this so we had a clear understanding and also so we wouldn't forget so we wouldn't have to go out filming again.

1st Draft with lyrics

This is the first edit of our video with the lyrics on, the clip is very little because of the long process it takes to make the animation for the lyrics so this is how far we've got with that

The major thing we need to fix is the lyrics going on top of the black border which can be easily fixed

1st draft without lyrics

This is the first edit we have without the lyrics, this version is longer than the lyrics version as we had more time to focus on the footage. we are all happy with this as a first draft.

we all like how the shots are effective and fit the lyrics, we feel that the relationship is easily established within the 1st draft. the two contrasting feelings and emotions are shown through the juxtaposing shots of Jade and Alex then Alex on his own, this fits in with the juxtaposing lyrics

there is still more to be improved though, getting more footage is definetley a big part for us to be capable for filling the song. the typography at the start needs to be changed

Editing!

Today we went down the college like last year to edit, as they have much better editing software and there is no cost for us. i did most of the video whilst Ollie did the lyrics to put over the video, whilst Alex and Josh worked on their dijipak products
