Account Of Prelim Task.

We started the day by splitting into our three differnent groups, (one for each song segment) and finalised our plannig in terms of our shot list. We then went into the studio where we met the band and disscussed what it was that we wanted to do in the video.

My group was second to shoot so we watched the first group shoot and then once they were done we started to shoot whislt they started to edit their clip. There were 3 roles that we rotated around our group, these were; Camera man, Director, and Playback. We rotated around all of these different roles for each different shot type.

As we only had 35 minutes to shoot our sequance we stuck to our pre-determined shot list. Once all of our shots on our list had been shot we left the studio and went to edit our clip once editied our clip we went on to peice together all of the 3 clips inorder to form a single video.

What this taught me about shooting and editing a music video is that the shot types and setting are incredibly important. It also taught me that a timeline and storyboard is incredibly important as when shooting these videos we only have a very limited period of time in which to shoot and in order to achive the best quality of video these need to be done to a high level in order to achive a well shot video.
I also learnt that editing and timeing in editing are incredibly important. And that cutting on the beat are very important to give the video a smooth seemless feel.

So in conclusion I feel that this task of a prelim video was incredibly effective in teaching me how to shoot and successfully edit a music video.
