Filming and Editing Evaluation- Sian

Our filming and editing over went well, however we did have some problems on the day of shooting. One was that it was cloudy, where as we had hope it would be sunnier with more of a blue sky. We also had the lyrics to the song but we didn't have the music, meaning it was harder to remember how the song went so we have now had more problems editing and trying to make the singing in sync with the music.

We tried to stick to our storyboard and a lot of the locations are the same however we did have to change somethings such as the alleyway as we didn't have as much time as we thought but we still managed to use a small path under a bridge, which created a similar effect and we noticed this was quite dark anyways so it may have been hard to see the artist let alone see what he was singing, which is also why we used this shot but not when the male was singing as you couldn't see.

We managed to get a tall multi-coloured umbrella which was good as it is a key feature in our video and we used it in most of the scenes, which i think helps to link the female and male singing together which is what we wanted as well as the same locations, but at different times. The costumes also worked well, especially the pink prom dress with the black converse it was a good contrast and seemed to fit the song well and what josh was wearing worked also worked with the style of the video.

The editing has taken longer than we originally thought, just to make sure everything is still in the right place and in sync and there are still quite a few gaps in the video, which we think may mean we have may to re-shoot some other scenes, maybe at a different location just to give some more variety as we still have a lot of missing gaps and time in the video.

We still have a lot of editing to do as we haven't even started on the effects yet, which is also a main feature in our video and there are somethings that may need to be changed, but we have a lot of footage which has been good and it means there are lots of different scenes which is what we wanted.

We have to sort out the gaps in our video, which may mean re-shooting some shots espicially where the miming is out of sync with the music, the effects still need to be done and we need to take the audio out of our video for when we do final cut.
