Music Video Planning, Shooting and Editing Process

For my music video initially I was struggling to decide on what to do. I didn't know whether to go for a narrative or more abstract video, what music genre to do, and whether to have myself perform or get other people to act in the video. I made a Spotify playlist of potential songs that I like that I may have chosen to use. One of the songs I particularly liked was 'this body means nothing to me', by Shrimp. However, I was unsure of the content I would shoot for this song, and as the singer is male I would have to get someone to play the singer as I felt it wouldn't look right with me lip syncing a male voice.

I decided it might be easier to use a song with a female voice and use myself as the lead. This would allow me to experiment a bit more without the pressures of having a defined plan.

Throughout the course I have edited various media pieces which has allowed my editing skills to improve over the year and allowed me to be experimental and try new techniques. I am going to revisit each piece I have edited and evaluate how I edited each one. The first thing I edited was my short film 'The Door'.

In our group we struggled to decide on a narrative so ended up filming individually. I chose to do a short narrative video showing someone coming home and feeling watched in their own home. When editing my short film I used Premiere Pro to edit and this was the first time I had used the software so I found it quite challenging and was only able to use it on a basic level. I used the song 'Somebody's Watching Me', by Rockwell, and tried to add horror style music in one part from the Premiere aud...

Footage bins for Editing

At the start of this course I used to keep all my clips in the same folder when editing however this got a bit confusing when I had a lot of different footage all in one place especially with bigger projects which had different scenes etc. However with my music video I sorted my footage into different bins based on location so I knew which clips were which which made it a lot more organised.
