One week after our shoot, we were able to start the editing process. We went through all the videos first and I kept a note on which lip syncs were the best. We also named every video individually to keep organised. This was important so we could easily identify which tracks we were selecting and if we missed one out, we would know which one it was.
First things first we put the music track onto the timeline, with the playback showing as the image to the music so it can be easily synced up. The timeline was used for syncing up the song to the video itself. It was quite a strenuous task but is worth while in the long term.
The music video conventions we are going to use is a shot that goes from a wide shot to a mid shot to a close up, making sequential sense in the viewing of the video.
The close up shots of the red arches did not come out as planned, Honor's face looked very distorted and alien like. We went into the editing suite today to sync up all the videos to the song. We have a lot of milage of the lip sync, and we were not able to sync up the dancing/shadows element because it is not needed yet as it comes half way through the song.
The mid/tracking shots of the tunnel sequence worked really well and I can tell it has a lot of potential for editing. The 4th element (light sequence) went really well with only 2 takes of the whole sequence. However, the transition lighting of blue to white did not work during filming as much as we hoped.
