Today, I was confident that I would be able to finish my final music video edit as I had done the completed cut just without specific editing (like the split screen) and colour grading as well as adding sound effects.
I began this editing session by showing the rest of my group members what I had completed so far and they were happy with the outcome so far. I then started to work on the non-sync shots of the dining table and was able to create the split screen of the artist looking at herself across the table. To do this I had to find two shots with the exact same lighting and then blend them together seamlessly to create professional looking shots. I was really happy with how this turned out and I think it successfully helps to make our music video more unique.
I added 2.35 to 1 Cinemascope boarders to our music video to make it look more cinematic which I think also makes our video look more professional as they helped to frame the shots well.
Now, the whole video was completed and all the needed to be done was colour-grading. This is done to make the video look more alive and helps to highlight the lighting used in the music video.
We colour graded to each specific set and then had to add the colouring to each section of the video corresponding to each set. Finally, we added a match sound effect to the beginning of the video when the artist lights the match before the music starts, I think this was a nice little detail that helped me to round of the end of my music video as it made it feel more put together in my opinion.
When I was finished, my group and myself watched the whole thing and we are all very pleased with how it turned out; although we did not edit it exactly to our shot list, I think we created a music video that exceeded our expectations.
