My music Video

For the final brief of the year i decided to make a music video for the track 'we are the warriors' by Stanton Warriors. As soon as i heard it was a self written brief i new i wanted to do something that involved music and moving image so the logical choice was a music video and i think it was a good entry point into using moving image. It meant that i didn't have to worry about sound at all when i was filming as i was just using the track as audio. The whole project meant that i could get to grips with using a camera and improve my skills on final cut. My main regret is that i didn't get my act in gear and use the HD cameras, mainly because i had already shot some footage using the normal cameras that i wanted to use and couldn't capture again. Personally im really happy with my final outcome and felt that it was a good project to bring the year to close and i received positive feedback after the exhibition. People said that my choice of locations and using black and white worked really well to create an atmosphere that worked with the music and they also thought the effects i applied to the lights that were applied in time with the music worked really well. People could also tell that Dan's was audio visuals that you would see at a club night and that mine was a music video. I'm really looking forward to working with moving image again as i now feel i am more competent with the cameras and using final cut. Also seeing James's and Andy's projects that were shot in HD in made me want to use the HD cameras even more.
