Song for Music Video

I and my team decided to use the song 'My Boy' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inPbasBt7KI
I like this song because a very artsy and symbolic video can be made to match the singer's dreamy elongated vocals.

My team member Ayesha showed me some amazing pictures of a photographer on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/alessioalbi/ . The use of natural light and shadows is amazing. The primary aspect that attracts me is the way the smoke shimmers as the sunlight falls from the side or behind.

These are some of the pictures that certain scenes in our video might be based on.

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
