A2 Preliminary Task - Bad Touch Bloodhound Gang Remake

Above is the video that I created, but where the whole class took part with the acting. There were two main attributes when creating the video, this was the filming and the editing.

Just before we went out fiming we had to design a storyboard of the video so that we had a rough idea of when the cuts were and to also get the timings right. When we were filming there was various aspects that we had to focus on. We had to remain patient the whole time we filmed the video, because if we were to have got distracted we may not have been able to get as close to the original copy as we could. Another thing was that we learned to take it seriously and try not to laugh as it would have ruined the video, and I feel that we took it seriously and came out with a good quality video.

Also with filming, when I was having a turn of filming I had to ensure that the camera remained steady, to make sure the framing was exact, and I also had to film the same shot more than once to make sure that we could get a good clip. When making this video reliability wasn't a problem as the class was always in and we were able to crack on with it. It's when I will be making my own video I will need to make sure that the people I need are available.

The other attribute we had to focus on was the editing. Again with the editing I had to be patient with it as it required me to do alot of cutting and moving the certain clips, and along with the computer that kept crashing meant that I had to save regularly. I have learnt how to use a new programme, Adobe Premiere Pro, and this will allow me to edit my video for my final piece. In Premiere pro I have learnt how to cut the clips, in order for the video to flow. I have also learnt different framing techniques as well such as the motion and effects control, which is readjusting the framing. I also learnt how to import ad export certain clips and eventually exporting the whole video. I discovered how to link and unlink the clips so that i could discard the audio from what we had filmed. One of the hardest parts was to get the lip syncing spot on. This required lots of cutting to ensure that it looked like the lead singer was actually singing. Below is the original version of Bad Touch by the Bloodhound gang.
