EDITINGGG

At the moment we are trying to complete our editing for our music video. We have been editing non-stop really from the moment we finished shooting our beauty shots.
We have been experimenting with different effects and different paces and have decided on a few final things:

1. After watching our beauty shots back on the screen, we thought in order to make it look distinctive from the other footage we would put it in black and white. Also our silohetted shots looked a lot better in black and white.
2. At first we cut up the performance with random shots of New York, however after listening to the song more closely we thought it may look more effective to have montages to the beat. After trying this out we felt this idea was very effective within the video as it gave it some pace.
3. We thought that the moments where they were getting ready for the dance scene should be fast edited in order to give it pace to make the audience know the music video is leading up to something and in order to give it a climax.

Although these are the only final ideas made we are still experimenting a lot with our footage and we will keep the blog up to date with any other desicions we make on the overall look of our music video.
