Seen It All

 My first attempt at creating a music video. I am rather proud of the use of cuts and action matches. The film runs smoothly and looks like a real music video. I did use only windows movie maker which limited the amount of editing I could do on the clip but unfortunately I don't have adobe on my home computer. I had filmed allot of other footage of myself playing guitar and miming the words but the quality of the footage wasn't good I believe we were only filming in 720p for these scenes which made them not fit with the other scenes. I had fully put it together but it looked rough and the lip sync wasn't to a good enough standard. If I were to use lip syncing in my final piece I would make sure the auto focus was on my face because on the footage I took the auto focus wasn't steady and kept on jerking.  Yet I've still impressed myself with this piece; it's simple nature contrasts with the song yet fits in the same way.

Something I found in my preliminary research into British indie rock music videos was allot of slow motion, I've played with this on movie maker and I think it gives a good effect. Yet with windows movie maker's limited capabilities I was unable to fade the slow motion back into full speed it just allowed me to cut. I've researched on the internet and found that the adobe software has this capability. I also used a fade function which looks good. Yet again was limited in the amount you could edit the fade.
