Music Room (Music video practice)

Unlike the music video required in the Cambridge Media Exam, I worked with an original score recorded on an iPhone. As expected there was a lot of noise in the audio and I had to use a software called Audacity for noise reduction. However, I could not edit the audio perfectly and ended up with an undesirable level of distortion in it. I was left to use the original audio and edited it slightly using adobe premier.

Synchronizing the recording with the video clips was the hardest task. Even though Adobe has a synchronizing option itself, the option did not work properly on the video clips. Thereafter I had to manually position them along the timeline.

Colour grading was easy, thanks to adobe premiere pro's inbuild colour grading stocks, with a few adjustments made.

I played around with scale, position, rotation, speed and keyframes.

SCREENING

Once the music video was finally made, I was dying to see the audience reaction. Not just online but in real life too! The feedback I got was very positive and gratifying. The best part was showing the music video to the actors, who were amazed by the edited version of the clips they remembered shooting.

It's always fun to use extreme angles. The aerial shot and subtle rotating effect make the starting video clip perfect for an opening. Black and white can give a very sophisticated and posh vibe. I played around at the end by pouring colour into the black and white video. This was achieved by using colour key effect, by changing its intensity to gradually remove the black and white clip to reveal a coloured version of the same clip from beneath the former clip. The Audio was recorded in an empty room to avoid adulteration by unwanted noise. It was then synchronized manually with the video clips in adobe premiere. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KaVn-w1Bqo&index=1&list=UUBVo4p1Q5cynkCNEFUs8xwg
