My First Preliminary Task

Our first preliminary task was to create a music video of a song chosen for us by Mrs Rogers, First off we were shown the four videos that we may be using there was "raindrops keep falling on my head, Magic moments, she's not there by the zombies and Dusty springfields you don't have to say you love me"
We were put into groups to make some plans for our prefered songs my Group consisted of Me, Matthew, Kelsey and Mitchell and we made plans for the Raindrops keep falling on my head and thankfully that was the song we were given.

Our video took as two hours to film and consisted of Matthew dressing up as a stereotypical 1960's man in a suit, bowler hat etc. and walking and dancing around, he is then joined by me and kelsey and we all walk together until the end of the video, Matthew was carrying an umbrella which goes with the lyrics of our chosen song "raindrops keep falling on my head" the idea of our video was pretty simple but effective.

The editing of the video didn't contain anything to complicated but it was effective, we made the entire video black and white we also added a rain effect because it was infact sunny when we filmed it, Those two effects really helped set the scene of the video, the black and white makes the video seem old and adds to the mise en scene, and the video wouldnt really make any sense without the rain so it was essential. The most difficult part of the editing was probably trying to line up the lip sinking to the actual song it took a while and a lot of reshuffling of the scene's but we got there in the end.
