Trying out Shots for final video (1)

A while back I was introduced to the music video of  'In the name of Love' by another media student. I was fascinated by the effect shown at 0:52 and 1:50. Ever since then I tried to investigate and figure out how it was made.

Finally, I tried a technique which gave me the same effect. A volunteer stood in a location with a prominent background. Two pictures were then taken of the volunteer in which he was placed in a constant position on the camera screen with the help of grid lines. As a result the background moved according to the changing perspective of the camera lens; however, the subject's position remained significantly unchanged. The two pictures were placed one after the other repeatedly in Adobe premier software.

Media Assessement

In this video, we went full swing on editing and mise-en-scene.  Action-Match and short takes prevented the video from being boring due to the limited camera angles and movements. Animation, adding layers of lower opacity, black and white tint effect, reverse and repeat effect made the music video look more interesting. Write-on and flash effects were used to introduce the title in an innovative way.  We used two studio lights, positioned at 45 degrees from the centre, with translucent white and red filters. A third light was used to form a rim of light behind the actress.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rfe_siD6IE

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.
