Editing Session - Performance 2

Concluding yesterdays session of editing we decided we would carry on editing the following day being today (5th January). Today we decided that we would try and finish off the rest of the performance in terms of editing. In our next stage of editing we had to align the footage with the music to create rhythmic editing. We wanted to do this to allow create a connection between the song and the footage shown. We did this by adding quick sharp edits to the lip sync of the lettering in the lyrics which allowed a rhythmic basis connected to the song as well as add quirkiness a convention of an electronic music video. Other than that we tried to edit in as many different shots as possible to create a quirky feel amongst the performance. We used transitions such as dissolves to show the different band members changing stations. I felt this was a good idea as it made the footage look quirky and engaging. Together as a group we worked effectively in order to get the performance edited which would see our music video finished as a rough cut. Overall I was very happy with our rough cut but could need a few improvements but we would see in the showcase what our audience feedback will tell us.
