Second Draft (Don't Dream It's Over)

In this draft I have changed the title font to a Type-writer style lettering as this is the kind of font I will be using for my record label name. I have also included a credit at the end of my video and will add in my record company logo in my next draft. I have corrected the stability of some clips, replaced  shortened some sections to make the shots less tedious and added in some different clips to fill the spaces. I also changed some of the swipe style transitions my earlier draft used and replaced them with fade transitions as I felt that the swipes looked basic and unprofessional whereas the fades allow the events of the video to unfold with increased fluidity . I have also replaced the lip-syncing of the second chorus with a more animated clip of my actress singing as I felt the last clip presented as being rather lifeless and boring and wanted my audience to engage with my actress more.



I attempted to repeat the action of my actress abandoning her possessions three times in each shot but  after the process of editing this I found it looked slightly strange and didn't quite fit in with the atmosphere of my music video. I want to show the natural process of my actress reclaiming herself and being at one with the world we live but I found that in editing the clips this way it made my actress look robotic and stiff which diverged from the image that I originally wanted to create.
This is what that editing idea looked like:

  1. Excellent Emily, only suggestion there is one final shot of Kiera standing looking at the camera after we have watched her walk away from us. If you keep it in can you slow it down and zoom in on her face. Also she is in the bath again at the end this is a good shot but rather long whilst we wait for her to open her eyes.

    Make sure you get feedback via whatapps and post on your blog then create draft 3.

    Also keep working on your ancillary tasks well done this is good.
