My group and I spent time reconstructing and improving our music video based on what we could remember from our old music video and the storyboards we created. Although the storyboards were not as accurate as they were because we developed our ideas as we went along, we used it as a reminder of our original ideas.
We began by importing all of the shots we had filmed over the course of the project. This took a long time as we had three tapes to import but we also understood that we needed all of the footage before we could successfully improve our music video and reconstruct what we had lost. We also knew that we had the whole day to make drastic changes to our music video and so did not panic.
Once all of the footage had been uploaded we began filling in the gaps in the music video. We started with the biggest gap because of its size. We did not remember fully what went in that gap but knew it contained shots of the head teacher being lazy and acting as a student, as well as the members of the band acting mad to fit the persona of the band within the music video.
Having filled in the gaps the best we could on memory we worked on improving as much as possible for the music video. One of the ways we tried to improved the music video was through an effect that made the moving image of the lead singer dancing appear similar to stop animation or as if it is buffering. This effect was called strobe. It was really effective because it fit in with the sharpness of the music and the ideas already used in the music video; therefore we decided we would use more of it in appropriate places.
Do you have any images of the specific shots you added in to the re-shoot?
