Editing Skills Development

Throughout the Skills development day on the 19th August we were given multiple sources of video and a few  sound tracks to only use one track and create an quick 30 second video, this allowed me to be on track with the work as quick as I can (even though it was practice) it allowed me to have the skill of being able to select specific clips that go well with the soundtrack to give it meaning, to add to this would be allocating the back ground music to the sound track as it will; fit the lip sync and fit the genre of soundtrack.

Another sector that occurred through the editing stages was making sure the clips we used were cropped finely and not one frame onto the black screen (end of scene) and it quickly went onto the scene smoothly without there being a little cut out and if there was I had to zoom into that section to quickly play frame through frame to find any faults or the sections of each video clip were joined together to prevent the black 1 frame that interferes with the soundtrack alone.

Reflection:
Throughout the ending of the production of this skill it has allowed me to adapt to certain styles of post production within a product and the style of edits I would be starting to proceed with for example, visual effects and how effective they are to the style of work that I am going to be presenting.
More of the priority within the music video has to be emphasised on the the quality of work. The reasoning behind this is to make sure that the product is suitable for its purpose therefore it has to have certain elements to make the product as it is, the list of this would be the following:

  • Lip sync on time
  • Different Style of shots
  • Different style of locations to widen variety
  • Different style of props
  • Give more broaden depth of the area to suit its purpose for either performance of the band or B roll's that link with the video and its purpose.
