To shoot this video, we had to take a lot of things under consideration such as lip syncing and the positioning of the camera. In total we filmed around 6 different shots that took a lot of takes to do as we sometimes would make mistakes when filming them. I think that the takes that i decided to include in the video was to a high standard and worked very well in relation to the rest of the video and music.
For every shot that we done, we put the camera in a different place and sometimes put it on a dolly to move the camera in relation to the actors. In my video i did not include many shots with the camera attached to the dolly, the only time i included one of these is the shot of the backing singers saying "nobody knows it". I think that this worked very well as i faded the shot into another shot so we see both shots on screen instead of just one.
I also used markers to mark on the screen significant points in the song and edit the video according to these markers. These markers helped me a lot when i was attempting to edit to the beat.
I think that I used the techniques to a high standard. The lip syncing seems to be perfectly in time and all of the effects that were added to the video, fits the feel of the song and video.
Look back at the assignment, the last bullet point asks you to evaluate how successful you have been and what you have learned for next time. Please write a summary that covers this aspect at the end of your post.
