Test Footage

PRACTICE OPENING SEQUENCE
We decided that we wanted to have short clips when there is a large thumping noise in the music. We will cut between the different locations and try to build up the suspense. We then filled the gaps between the jump cuts with scenes from a music video by Kendrick Lamar. These are the types of shots we really want to replicate when filming inside the pit as it links to the lyrics about the club.



PRACTICE LIP SYNC
We did this to practice my editing techniques when trying to match the lip sync to the music. This proved more difficult than we thought and involved a lot of fine tuning and going back after watching it a couple days after and seeing that it wasn't right. Performance is definitely a large part of making a music video so this is very important for us to get right and we will definitely have to record the performance scenes a lot of times.


PRACTICE TIMELAPSE
We would like to use a timelapse effect either when the main female character is seen on the streets of Cambridge and is watching the night life walk past her. We would also like to use this in the club scene to show her isolation within the crowd. However, the club scene has a lot of slow motion clips already planned for and we think that it could 'overdo' it if we involve a fast motion clip too as well.


PRACTICE BRIDGE
We decided that during the bridge part of the song, we would like to show the female character as 'sorting herself out' in a bathroom and we will try to capture some very emotional scenes which makes the audience feel empathetic for her. We will try to film this in the reflection of the mirror and also at a high angle which makes it seem that she is looking down on herself as she looks in the mirror.
