Production Log

I have started to re-do some of my shots, as my shots were really long and drained on for quite a bit.

Lyrics to a Thousand years.

"A Thousand Years"

Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone,
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow.

One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

One step closer
One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Peer asessment

After showing the footage to my media class, I have gained some positive and negative feedback which could help perfect my music video.
One of the main points were that the shots when on too long, i needed to get more of a variety of shots in with different angles, which help show my versatility.
I got mixed opinions for my over exposure scenes, my intentions were to make my model look angelic and asprational so my audience look up to her.

One focus that people did like was the lip syncing, as it looked on time and not messy.
I think that i need to make my video more entertaining so people do not get bored, so i am going to have to have some sort of performance, maybe claire dancing or something similar to that.
I still need lot more footage. I mainly recieved level 4's and 3's. I think to improve this, i really do need more shots, angles and use of props.
My plan is to try and film this week, so i don't fall behind too much, if i can get my shots filmed this week, then i think i'll be fine, as i can finish editing by the end of this week. But getting the hall or the studio will be pretty hard as it is booked till the 24th of February.

Music video draft

Production Log

I have looked over my footage and decided that it would be best if i pursued a perfomance based music video. I think when i added my narrative clips inside it just looked increasingly tacky and cheesy. So in order to make my music video aesthetically pleasing (A main focus) I have to focus on the performance.
