So far in my music video I have edited up to 1minute, 22seconds. The editing in the video is very heavily used. I have used Adobe Premiere to edit and add on all my sepcial effects. Before the start of this project I knew how to use Adobe Premiere in terms of straight cut editing but not in the detail I know now. I can now add on many special effects from keying and using the chroma key to get rid of the green screen background to completely transforming the image and using a horizontal flip effect on it to make another layer symmetrical.
So far in the 1minute of editing, I have used effects such as;
Chroma key on all the shots to get rid of the green screen background,
Croping the image to clear and unwanted footage,
Adjusting the image using brightness and contrast controls,
I have inverted images in different layers by adding the layer into a new video and distorting it and changing the position by motion effect,
I have changed the image control by tinting some of the visuals changing the colours. This effect also links in with the brightness and contrast as both change the colour of the visual.
I have changed the perspective in some shots using a drop shadow to show an unexpected perspective like in the Rihanna music video,
To clear up an unwanted area without cutting out the visuals in want to keep, I used a sixteen point garbage matte,
To stylize alot of the visuals in editing, I used an alpha glow to add a glow colour to the edge of the layer. I copy and pasted certain layers to make them symmetrical in the video as the moved and rolled across the screen.
To gain the symmetrical look, I copy and pasted the layer into a seperate video, added on the horizonal flip effect and changed the positioning so it looked symetrical. I added on a vertical hold in the video when the baseline beat comes in to show the mix of genre's which also adds to the post modern era.
The editing is very time consuming as everything has to look right in the different video layers. All the effects have to match and fit into the time of the baseline soundtrack and well as match the background. The visuals of Hannah singing also have to be in sync with the actual soundtrack.
