I have learned many transferable skills that I will take to next year such as:
Pre-Production
- How to create a persona and use costume, props, lighting, composition and framing to convey these further. This will help me with A2 as I will be creating a musician from scratch so it will be very useful to think about how to use all these elements to create a more realistic and appealing character. The costume & props meetings showed me how to successfully plan the look of the video which is a major part of the video.
Production
- How to work with actors and encourage them to give their best performance
- The basics of music video makeup such as anti-shine
- The basics of camera work and supporting the camera such as cable bashing
- I have also learned the importance of choreography as it is important for videos to have actions that match the video.
- When Sian says "ever bring them down", she matches it with a hand-movement. This is due to Jasmine's choreography.
Post-Production
- How to edit a music video and make sure the lip-syncing matches up with audio track
- I have learned the style that music videos tend to be edited in, the pace of the cutting usually match the tone of the song.
- The music videos also tell a story and follow a narrative flow rather than just being a series of shots that match the music. It is more like a short film that tells a story.
- Visual effects such as flashes are used to make the video look more interesting and as a variation to a normal cut. Such as:
