Preliminary: One minute music video

Hi guys, so here we are starting out the A2 course and our first task is to make a One Minute Music Video, this is our preliminary task as a practice for the real thing later on in the year. We can't just get straight This prelim task enables us to get a real feel of what it's like to lip sync to music, the variety of shots we will need and how hard the editing will be when it comes to fitting the song in with the lip syncing. I believe this will thoroughly help us when it comes to our main task. So anyway, the song we have chosen to do our one minute music video to is 'U.G.L.Y Heart' by GRL. This song fits well with our group as their our 4 of us so we can quite easily create a pop girl band look, just like the original band had created.

Practicing with a green screen

As the a large majority of our music video project is going to be conducted using a green screen effect, we thought it would be best to do a practice piece, this enables us to analyse what went well, what we need to use, and what works well when using and editing with the green screen. A green screen  is an integral part of the special effects process known formally as Chromakey. Chromakeying, sometimes known as color keying, is the process of singling out a particular color in an electronic image/footage and then using computer software to make that color transparent, which then enables us to add a background of our choice. The effect we are going for in the main task is a greyscale, shabby background in order to set the mood of the music video. However as this is our practice we just selected an average background to play with. I learnt how to do this task by watching some simple YouTube clips on green screening with Premier Pro, which is the software which we use to edit...

Working with a Green Screen

For our music video one of the biggest parts of the project is conducted with a green screen effect. I had never tried this before, however a lot of editing techniques are self taught and learnt along the way. Which is why I took it upon myself to use the resources I have with YouTube to conduct my own research prior to our editing of the music video. This means that taking these measures will allow a much smoother editing process as I have already learnt the basics of editing the background with a green screen, and even if need be I know I have a reliable resource which I can always revert back to which will help us along the way if we were to have any queries or issues. The use of the green screen when editing isn't actually as hard as I first suspected, the background can be changed in a few simple steps, and once the first try is out of the way it appears even easier. The more you practice the easier it becomes. I will upload the prac...
