Editing my final task

 Hey blog, today I will be editing my music video. The editing software I will be using is Filmora. This is the same software I used to edit my music video. Since I used filmora before and made a purchase it should be easy for me to navigate through the app. This app has so many features and that’s why I love it. This app has many transitions, sound effects, music, and more so I don’t have to worry about downloading and exporting. I’m also able to drag, move, trim, and crop the video as needed within the app. When I did my music video I used my laptop to edit.  Unfortunately, that’s not an option for me since my laptop is currently giving me problems. I planned on using my brother’s laptop to edit but I wasn’t able to transfer the videos from my phone to the laptop.

I saw a QR to download filmora on my device so that’s what i did. After I filmed I looked through all the videos and favorited the ones that would be used to make it easier when editing. Once I logged in I exported all the favorited videos to the app. Once I did this I called Felisha so we can edit together. I put all the videos in order to see how long it would be.  Surprisingly, it wasn’t way over the time like I expected it to be. We had to discuss the changes we will make to be in the time frame. Since it was still over the two minutes I had to make some adjustments. I trimmed the videos to remove the extra talking and unnecessary dialogue.  After this we began discussing the transitions and sound we will use.

Production Blog: Music video

 After we finished filming the outdoor scenes, we filmed the indoor 0scenes. The majority of these scenes involved only the main character. The first indoor scene was scene four. Scene four was the main character opening the room door and putting the picture in the mirror. For this scene, we used a tracking shot to show her coming in and placing the image on the mirror. This concluded what was supposed to be the first 24 seconds of the song. After this, we filmed scene ten. Scene ten was the main character laying on the bed and then getting up to look out the window. for this scene, we needed it to be dark but not too dark to the point the camera quality changes, or she can't be seen. We used a ring light to add enough light so the scene wouldn't come out too dark, and we closed the blinds so it wouldn't be too bright. I had to adjust the brightness of the ring light since it was too bright in her eyes. We recorded this scene about five times because we wanted it to be with...

Production Blog- Editing

 Hello, today in this blog I will discuss how I finished the editing my music video. As I mentioned in my previous blog, the video from CapCut was very choppy and glitchy. I didn’t want to deal with it so I switched to a different editing platform. I looked on TikTok for good editing platforms for computer. I kept seeing Wondershare Filmora, so that’s what I downloaded. Once it finished downloading I did the same thing I did in CapCut. On the app I added all the clips I timed so I can access it easier. I dragged the song to the video and trimmed it to be 1:15. I drag the vidro clips to match the song. I used the video from CapCut as a reference to how to the video should look. Something I like about the sofeware is that I can preview the video clips on a bigger screen so I didn’t have to constantly drag and delete.This took me a little while to get used to. When I tried to trim the video I click the scissors which splits the video. Not only did it split the video but also the song ...

Production Blog: Filming Part 3

 After the gift opening scene the doorbell ring and the next scene is the friends looking at the camera. I had a perfume box that was decorated, so we put the note in there to put it outside.  Earlier before we stared filming i put the box outside and someone moved it.  I went outside to look for the box and I couldn’t find it. I asked everybody if they moved it and where did they put it. Since nobody couldn’t tell me where the box was I had to check the camera. I’m glad the camera recorded who did it. I had to scroll about an hour back to see Felisha moved it into the bushes so it wouldn’t be seen in the first scene. Once we had the box in place everyone gathered around the google Home Screen and said their lines. Nobody practiced their lines except for Christel so there was a little improvising to save time. This was a fairly simple scene and it only took us two tries to get it right. The next scene i used a tracking shot to show Christel picking up the box. The next sc...
