Editing Session - Performance 1

Already today we had edited our previous footage being the gym scene an hour earlier now we had to edit our performance. Overall we had captured over an hours worth of footage so we first had to analyze what’s parts of the footage we wanted to use in our music video. I felt this was most appropriate as we had too much footage and needed to narrow it down to around a minutes worth of footage. We discussed the different parts of footage between us and decided what would look best. We came up with a particular edit where all of the band are in their morph suits and that they would change stations without moving so it looks like the morph suits are changing colors, this adds to the quirkiness of the music video a convention of an electronic music video. I felt this was a perfect edit to use as it conveyed an electronic music video convention being quirkiness. Finally we had narrowed down the footage of what we were going to use in our music video we decided to start editing. We started our performance editing where the instrumental kicks in towards the half way point in the video where we incorporated a close up of the guitarist plying the guitar to emphasize the musicianship of the band. Unfortunately we had to conclude our editing for today as we had run out of time during our lesson but decided we would continue editing in our next lesson the following day. Overall a successful session of editing as we now have produced parts of the performance to go within our music video but would have to finished during our next lesson.
