SCRIPT
To film our music video we used a Sony FS100 which gave us
the opportunity to use prime lenses allowing us to capture a variety of
different frames. We used various lenses
to create different visual effects allowing our music video to look more
professional. In the studio we used a monitor that reflected what we were
filming helping us choose shots more carefully and adjust them when necessary.
After filming we uploaded all our footage to final cut pro
and separated it into bins. The different bins included footage we were
definitely going to use, footage we could use as well as footage we could use
that wasn’t of optimum quality but didn’t want to delete in case it was needed
at a later stage. We then synched the performance footage with the music track
into several layers, cutting the shots on the beat, which is called rhythmic
editing to coincide with the instruments heard on the track with the help of
markers in final cut pro. The performance set was helped by the technology in
pre-production to make It look professional and fitting to the time through
props we brought t on amazon and research we did on the internet to match the
90s era.

The finishing process was a vital process in our video to
give a realistic approach to it. We incorporated a term called sweeding which
is when you take an idea and you water it down. In popular culture a film
called shoe lace is an example of sweeding. We used a process called motion tracking to place images behind the shots
where we used green scree. Motion tracking is when you get the computer to
focus on an object to stay on the screen. You then tell the picture to stay
through the sh ot so that it looks normal, however the shot itself is not coming.

When filming we needed to encapsulate the relationship
between the performance and narrative. By doing this, our story line had to be clear.
To achieve this testing objective, we recorded a set of reaction shots from
Maxim that we would cut after the narrative section. This would exemplify the
relationship that Maxim has between the band and his desire for the girl. To
form a concrete relationship between the performance narratives we had the same
set from the performance set and the living room set.

We had all of the components that were used on the narrative
set that were on the performance set to try and bring the video to life. This
developed on the conventions that the band are close as we have shown them as a
‘brotherhood’ in our video.

The performance aspect shows our entire band but the
majority of the camera time is given to Maxim as he is the main part. I used a
mid-shot to outline where they are, a living room in a house is. This is
clearly symbolized through the mise en scene in the room which includes posters,
a TV, a fridge and a table.
The films we chose are romantically based starting with
Titanic, then Romeo and Juliet, seven year itch and Dr No. during all of these
films there are famous romantic clips, during these clips the main actor, Maxim
imagines that he is seeing his love instead of the respective actors that play
these roles.
