Evaluation of our shoot

We ended up doing two shoots for our music video. Our original idea was to have a band performance as we wanted to replicate a 60's style music vido so we needed a stage or a hall to perform in. We were able to get a hold of a hall quite easily so there was not realy any problem with location. we also needed a kitchen scene and there was a kitchen available as well so we had all the settings we needed according to our plan. getting the instrumnts was not a problem as we have a musician in our group.

our first shoot was ok but compared to our second shoot we were not very organised and we didnt have much focus. i think that seeing the result of our first shoot made us more determined to do well in our second shoot. we concentrated a lot more the second time around and stuck to our plan. we also tried to be more imaginative with our shots to include a bit of variety. while we were on location we tried to make the most of what we had around us so we threw in a few new ideas too. the shoot went really well and we got everything that we needed.

Rough cut feedback

the video had relevance to the lyrics
lip syncing is a bit off
good location
some shots held for too long
good shots and angles
ripple effect loks good at the end
black and white works well
good transitions
gorilla costume is good

Rough Cut

This is our rough cut, we have made a few changes to our animatic and added a few more shots. However next Tuesday we plan to re-shoot large amounts of our video because the performance shots are a bit too static.
