30 second rhythm task

We were given a task to go out and film any footage and return to edit the footage to the beat of a given song for practice. I wanted to practice with text and colour overlays along with editing to the beat so I could do this well in my final music video. 30 second rhythm task - Restless

My logo and artist name

I wanted to make sure my logo fit the colour scheme, that I had already decided for my artist, well. I wanted it to be simple and easy to remember and symbolise the same of the artist. I decided to create the logo first and follow with the name of the artist although I knew I wanted to include daffodils within it. I reached a conclusion to call my artists 'Pink Daffodil' and created the following logo on canva .

Mood Board

When we were studying aesthetics, I created a mood board of what general ideas and colours I wanted to include in my music video. I carefully looked into what would fit the genre of dance music along with fitting to my song choice and what was available for me to use. I decided that I could always add on coloured filters over shots if I didn't have the coloured light available.

1 Minute Music Video

To practice our skills to make a successful music video a practice task was set to make a music video to one minute of a song. We were given the choice to work in groups or alone (I chose the latter of the two) and could choose any genre of song. I chose Hurts by LANY as I knew I wanted to film outside and this song fit the sunny weather. I focused mainly on editing however, I filmed lip syncing during golden hour so the lighting would be fitting to the song. I used a lot of colour correcting to practice my editing skills. 1 minute music video

30 Second Recreation

To practice filming and editing a music videos, we recreated 30 seconds of an already existing music video. We were able to work together to create this so I worked with Becca for this task. We decided to recreate the first 30 seconds of Stay With Me by Sam Smith as it is simple and filmed in one shot. I wanted to practice using a camera without a tripod so I decided to film and Becca would star in the video. I need to practice more as my hands were shaky as I was moving. 30 second recreation
