Making of the Draft Music Video

This is a draft music video that me and another student created:

Rihannah - Umbrella



What did I learn about?:

Preparing and planning

• We had to learn the song lyrics, so that when we synced the words to the audio file on the editing suite, it sounded believable and correct.
• We had to consider props and the cinematography behind the concept of the music video.

Filming

• During the process of filming, we firstly needed the basics of a DV Camcorder, tripod and tape.
• While we filmed, we used a variety of shot angles and types (from close-ups to long-shots..etc).

Working with performers

• Whilst filming the performers mime to the song, the rest of the team looked away, so that the performer could feel more comfortable and relaxed - which made their miming to the song more believable.

Technology

• The technology used for filming is listed above; however, for the process of editing we used Adobe Pro to edit the footage along with the song.
