Summary of Feedback:

Needed Reshoots -



- Shot 1 = establishing shot of house is too shaky and needs to be re-done.


- Shot 54 and 55 = at this moment in the song the pace quickens but the pace of the shots doesn't. To change this I will make shot 54 1 second long and shot 55 will be 3 seconds long but when quickened in editing will become 0.5 seconds. This will allow 3 more 1 second shots of the main character applying his makeup so that the pace is quickened and reflects his excitement.
-At 0:45 I need to create a shot to show what the main character is looking at before he turns to look so that the continuity is more clear.


Ken Burns Editing -



- At 0:12, 0:24, 0:52, 1:00, 1:03, 1:06, 1:50, 2:18, 2:22, 2:29 seconds the shots need more movement to resemble a pop music video. To do this I will add ken burns to create an upbeat atmosphere.

Overall Editing -



- At 2:14 and 2:54 seconds I have created a jump cut and at 1:53 seconds I have done the same with a lip syncing also being out.


- At 2:31 the shot needs to be edited tighter as you can just see the beginning of the main character walking.

Overall:



At the moment this music video is a C+

Furthermore, this music video is mostly performance based – shown through the repeated scenes of the band playing their instruments on a stage.

Casting Nisha Gandhi I have chosen Nisha to be the performer in my music video. This is because she has an aspiration to be a singer and therefore would be a reliable and passionate cast member. She is also at Leicester College do a performance course so she has experience in acting and is familiar with filming schedules and plans. In relation to the music video itself: she will appeal to the target audience 16 - 25 year olds as she it part of that demographic, meaning that the audience can relate to her. Also, be female she will match the voice of the artist.
