Editing the music video

finely cutting the clips so that it flows well and keeps continuety

Colour grading the footage

Editing on 4.12.12

Today i captured the rest of the footage onto the computer. This included the lake shots, poker shots, and church shots with the protagonist.

 I then filled the gaps that had still pictures in with the office footage!

Editing the footage

I had to section all the clips so that we could both know where each clip was. This made the work more organized so that it would be easier to locate clips.

This is a shot of me building the beginning of the music video. 

Because we hadn't filmed all of the footage when i was editing the footage, i subbed the footage with a still from our animatic so that i knew how much space it would take up. 

I did a bit of testing with colour, so that the audience would not be able to see the radiator in the background, and so the green mat is bright.

Planning for my Digipak Idea

For my digipak, i plan to have a scenic view of the sky, with fields, hills and trees at the bottom of the frame. To get this shot i will take some photos from a road which i travel along to go into Hextable. The view from this road allows a wide shot of the sky, and a bit of hill, and field area. This is ideal for my front cover. To get teh desired shot i want, i will have to go on a cloudy day,  to that the photo looks more interesting.
Below are some screenshots of the area where i would be standing to take the photos.

Fore the back cover, i will need to take the silhouette band shot on the day of shooting, as it will be hard to organise another day to take the digipak photos. I will then need to photoshot them onto another photo, perhaps a lake, which fits into the location where will be shooting the lake scene in our music video. 

Font research for the digipak

The style I want from the Forerunner digipak is to be simplistic, but with a dark, contrasting edge. The fonts i have chosen are quite simplistic, being simple and straight edged.

Out of all these fonts, i like the last one called Subtle Sans as the R looks different to the other fonts. It also suits the bands style of music.
