Production Blog: Finishing Touches

 Hello everyone! Welcome back to the blog! If you've been tuning in, you are already caught up on the process of me and my group filming and editing for our music video. Today's blog is going to be on making the finishing touches of editing the videos. David, Jake, and I, all had different ideas for how we thought the video should be edited. So, instead of picking one idea over the others, we each edit all the videos ourselves, and will decide later which one we like the best. Then after we choose we will make the needed changes.  I had a basic idea for the video. I didn't want to make many "fancy" over the top changes that would take too much attention from the actual video itself. So i stuck to the basics. I put all the videos together, and fit them to the music. Using the needed transitions to ensure the video flowed together, I attempted to make the transitions so seamless you barely noticed they were there. This was tough since some of the videos were extremely different in terms of color and quality.  Cutting from a video of a dark room, to a bright kitchen was difficult to make look good. Additionally, the cross cutting and splitscreen portion of the video was hard to edit. The lighting itself was fine, the difference in the colors and quality was shown to describe the difference between our days. David wakes up energized, and ready for the morning. While I wake up tired and don't get excited for the day until i start actually doing things. I finished the editing and sent it off to Jake and David. Now I have to wait for them to finish before we choose which one we like the best. I personally think mine was really good, but David is a great editor so we will probably end up using his in the end. Thats it for todays blog! Thank you for tuning in, and i hope to see you Wednesday for the final video!
