Improvements after 1st Feedback

After the feedback, we did a few things to improve our video. 

We have changed the narrative a bit so it makes sense. We have added more shots of how Matilda met John (second guy) so he didn't just appear out of nowhere. We have also changed the shots at the park with John so the audience don't just see the back of them. We have also added a shot of Matilda crossing out a heart on a mirror to suggest that she is over Toby (first guy).

Secondly, we have filmed another performance in a different location with different shots so we can cut them in between the long shots and make the video snappier and fun. We have also switched some of the shots so the audience get the scene from more angles. 

Some of our peers have picked up on how some parts of our video are not in sync so we tried to fix that by going through the whole video and making sure everything is in sync. However, during this process we have realised it is the way Matilda sings that makes it look like it is not in sync so we could not do anything about it.

1st Feedback from Peers

For our first rough cut, we went round as a group to look at other music videos from our classmates and give them feedback on what is good and what they could do to improve it.

These are the feedbacks we received from them.






From these feedbacks we have realised...

Pros
- Special effects is good
- Narrative was interesting
- Artist performance fits well with music
- Good locations
- Fantastic Performances and Colour used

Cons
- Some shots were too long
- Some of it wasn't in sync
- Cafe scene doesn't look much like a cafe

Our teacher also gave us comments on the rough cut and they said the narrative was a bit confusing - they didn't know why there were 2 guys in it. They also said the cafe scene didn't look like a cafe and shots are too long.

Behind the Scenes - Balloon Scenes

Here are some behind the scenes photos setting up the scene and during filming. To create a balloon wall we had to put up balloon on the curtains with safety pins so it will be in the frame when Matilda is standing up.

Filming Schedule


Editing Schedule Planning

Today, we have talked about what days we are free to stay and edit our music video. We made sure everyone will come in at least one day of the week and stay after school to edit. On wednesday, all of us are free therefore we will have a full day of editing and maybe filming if we need to.
