editing changes and final video

I spend alot of time during lessons and after school editing this video,
It took a very longtime but it was definitely worth it to as the outcome greater then I thought it would be. Most of my teachers agree with this and have been a great help with all of my work so far.

Planning

The Plan at the moment is to take photos of John and use them to make the digi-pak.
These are some of the rooms I have been work and planning my work in.

Editing 2

I am continuing to edit my video this could take some time and alot of after school work but it will definitely be worth it to get a the finished result.
The video needs a few more cuts to make it perfect.

Changes

Due to a conversation I had with miss Sutton on Thursday I have come to the decision that I will change the storyboard I am using to a more detailed and complex version with more shots and a better sense of continuity.This will greatly increase the effectiveness of my video and hopefully convey the point I am trying to get across to my audience that is, Love can hurt alot especially lost love but it is not the end of the world, start afresh and forget about the heart ache its causes. I have been through this many times and I'm still standing. So stand up and get on with your life it's the only way forward.

PS. Happy Bonfire Night.

Locations

As it is only my draft video I decided to change a few of the locations to less crowded areas hear are photos the locations that I changed them too, They are all in my house but in the best video I intend to use my local pub as it has a good atmosphere and has more of country feel.

The camera for my filming will be placed here were the plant is currently.

This room will replace the backroom of the pub where my characters have an arguement.

















This room will replace the main entrance of the pub where my characters kiss each other.

Discussion

Today I had a chat with my media teacher and he says I need to add more to my blog and complete the editing of my video to have it ready for Friday, so it appears I will be busy this week.On another note I have put more then half of my video onto the Macs today I hope that the finidhed product will be great but I'm worried about the timing and if I have enough of it to finish the project on time.
No point in panicing though as I have gotten out of tighter spots with everything in tact.
I apciate the helpful comments by Mr Smith but his imput has begun to effect the outcome of the video and so I am going to change back to some of the original ideas I came up with Mrs Sommels help.

Indoors

Finished all my indoor filming today, only one scene left to film.
The shots I am filming will contain no lip syncing and no sound so the music can be played over the top.

Filming

I finished all of my outdoor filming today and only have a fue more shots left to film so I will be starting the editing at the start of this week.
Here are a few shots of us getting ready for filming, before going out to film in the selected location.

1st scenes

Today I filmed the first few scenes for my video, I had to start with the single character scenes first as they are the easiest to film. I was able to get my hands on a guitar after a long time searching, I decided to ask the music department but they don't allow you to take them out of school. Then I remembered the Art department had an old one and after asking to borrow it I was on my way.

Inspiration

This is a list of things that inspired me when I was planning my video.

Update

Was planning to film today, but due to unforeseen circumstances filming had to be put on hold. But while I was waiting I watched this video of Johnny Cash from around the same time period as he sang 'The Ring of Fire'

filming

I filmed a few more shots today, I also watched a few videos of the same genre, these videos are difficult to analyse as they are not following a story like most music videos as country music singer tend to do concerts instead of music videos. Kenny Roger for example has a great voice but he didn't do any music videos as far as I can tell after searching on YouTube to find one.

But I think I understand why country music stars preferred to do concerts over music video, its because they enjoy seeing the reaction of the audience to there songs and allowing them to join in like this video show you. which is something that they cannot do with a music video.

Weather Report 2

The weather next week looks good for filming so I will try and get it all done in time (before it rains) so I can have it edited and finished as soon as possible.

Characters

Before I start filming I need to pick the best candidate for each character in my video. Below are pictures of the candidates that I have chosen to play the rolls in my video. I may change this for the main video as the flash backs would make more scense with younger characters involed.
But for the draft these characters will work fine and hopefully the video will work with only them in it.
Character 1

Character 2

Film schedule

I have begun planning my filming and what shots I should start with.
the only problem is the time of day as I am loosing more light and my characters are busy people so it may be difficult to time the filming with good light.

Filming Preparations

I am getting ready to film some of the shots for my video, as I have not gotten My hand on a guitar yet I can only film the scenes that don't have a guitar. I hope the guitar problems I have been having will be solved soon as I have been exploring many different options.
