Today in the editing suite, because I had successfully completed my lip-sync cut yesterday, I was able to get going on reviewing our non-sync footage and overlaying that on top of our video.
To do this, I created a new arrangement on Premiere Pro so I could place the lip-sync cut all in one bar so it would then be easier to place the non-sync footage over the top. This also meant that if needed, I could go back and edit the lip-sync cut without having to change the non-sync cut.
I began by reviewing all the non-sync footage and then placing all my favourite shots on the music video timeline on Premiere Pro. After this, I converted all the footage into 50% speed as we shot the non-sync in 50f.p.s; the shots that we got came out nice in slow-motion and I think will help to make our video more dynamic. I then started to place the non-sync footage in line with the correct set. However, we also filmed a whole set in non sync (the dining table containing a duplicate screen) so I placed this throughout the whole video creating a semi-narrative of the artist walking in into the table set and then walking out at the end of the music video.
Matt discussed with me that it was important to contain some 'confident' non-sync shots meaning that they can't just be quick and snappy to mask a mistake, they need to look intentional so I took his advice and it made the video look much more professional.
Today, I was able to finish the timeline of the music video containing both sync and non-sync meaning that now I just have to work on minute details as well as colour-grading and editing specific shots like the duplicate screen.
