Editing Music Video

Recently in class, we've been editing our commercial. We have been running into a few problems. We  originally edited on a phone. We did this in hopes of getting a video with better quality. But this made it harder to dump the footage onto the computer. We had to put it into another app and download it as another form. It took a lot of time. The videos were not downloading fast. It took around 10-15 minutes for each to download. But there was no other way to get the footage on the computer.

So Ambrielle downloaded them because she had a flash drive. Today we started editing. But we ran into another problem. The pinnacle studios app would not load on the computer. So, we had to get another computer and try to open it up on there. But, the pinnacle studio app still would not load. So we just had to wait for the app to load. After a while we asked for help. We decided that is would be best to come back at a different time to work on it. We had to work on it because of the due date.

When we were finally able to edit, we did. Editing videos is always hard to me. It is hard for me to cut and add film in. So, it takes a while for me to get the hang of it. After a while, I get used to how it works. It was also kind of hard to make up the lyrics to the music. In some of the videos they mouthed the video. But, they mouthed some of the words too fast and some too slow. But we were able to figure it out. Then we continued with the rest of the video.

Filming Music Video

Over Thanksgiving break we filmed. We filmed the first day that the break started. After school was done on Tuesday, we decided that was our only chance to film. We decided that for this film we were not going to the cameras. Last time we filmed for our commercial, we did not like the quality of the camera. So we decided for this video we would film on a phone. The quality came out a lot better. But, it is harder to dump the videos onto the computer. We have to go through more processing. But, I think it will be better in the end.

Filming was pretty fun. We decided for our video we would film at the beach. We thought that it would be the best setting for the music. It created a fun and happy vibe. But, it still gave off very chill and calm vibes. We were also able to freely film as we wanted. We had enough space as we wanted. And we could move around as much. We were able to run and jump. We also could go to places where there was a lot of people and where there wasn't.

We did a lot of scenes. We did scenes by the road. I was not in the video. I helped Brandon film. We recording Ambrielle and Na'mya running towards the water. We also recording them running together. For the main part, they were acting like they were a couple. We did this to capture the idea that is portrayed by the lyrics in No fear. In my opinion, we were able to capture it pretty good. I had a good time filming for the most part.
