final cut pro..

THE ROUGH CUT IS DONE!!!! The rough cut is finally done now, so this means that we can now put it on final cut pro, which to me is where the fun starts. We had a bit of trouble when we uploaded it to there though because we done as one big shot, so we had to go through it all again and cut it up which wasted alot of time, never the less we have done it all now and we have moved on from it. We have started with the split screens which are soo hard, it's so much fussing around btu ti makes the music video look better so we have to grin and bear it.

The editing...

The editing is going really well, everything seems to be well. The syncing is not as hard as what i thought it would be; it's difficult but bareable. We keep changing our minds of how we want it to look so it's not really folowing the storyboards but i think it's better. the rough cut is nearly finished which means that we re near to putting it on final cut pro. I'm looking forward to that because it then means that we can play around with the lighting and do some split screens, just make it look more exciting, give it something different.

Filming at Harry's...

Filming at harrys went much better than the first time, we got some really good shots of the each band member and some of the whole band. My favourite shot is of when me and harry are singing to eachother and it goes well with the storyline and look sarcastic in a way because the whole thing is looking back on their time together so i think it ties in nicely. The lighting looks muych better now it's not as dark on the bands faces and but could be lighter but that can be fixed on final cut pro.

Catch up!!!

Ok so now we have done the filming of the couple shots. We got some really nice shots filming in Danson Park with the frost on the leaves and the grass it was very romantic so it woked really well. Looking back on it, it doesn't seem acted it looks very relaxed and natural which was great because it makes it seem so much more real. All that needs doing now is the shots of the band which are being filmed tomorrow night at Harry's house so we should (if all goes to plan) have a rough copy of the music video by Friday.

I like this picture of marilyn Monroe by Andy Warhole and I was thinking of having something like this for the album cover, of all their faces.

Action plan for this week

We have decided that I will be the girl in the band now as Gemma didn't know the words and felt uncomfortable onscreen. We have changed the storyboard slightly also and have had it as; it is the ex couple having flash backs of their relationship. It will be filmed like home videos, so alot of hand held cameras and shots of just heads and shoulders.
Tonight we are filming the couple scenes which will be me and harry. We want to get scenes shots of us at the pub, at home just playing about and then eventually get some shots of us with our friends. Obviously the shots with our friends will have to wait until we can get the band together when every one is free.

Today I am dedicating my free time to catching up on some blogging as I have abandoned it for a while .
