Continuity Editing Piece

This is our Continuity Editing Piece. For this we shot several short clips showing different parts of the movement, including different camera shots. This task allowed us to learn how to attach a song off of a CD onto a video made in 'Premier-Pro'. This meant we also learnt how to use the software, 'Audacity'. During the process of this task we also got to grips with filming a bit more, as we became more confident with using the cameras. Which is preparing us for shooting our Music Video independently. 

 In this task the most common shots were often ones which started at one shot and then changed into another. For example, at 0:10 (when the model walks into the white room through the brown door) it starts with a long shot but then she walks towards the camera, creating a mid-shot by the end.  We have also included close ups on details, such as the button the model pushes at 0:15 and her feet at 0:35. The close ups highlight details and can create tension, it our case it highlights her movement through doors. At the end we have included a pan up of the model, suggesting to the viewer that she has finished her journey.

 The editing process involved us editing the shots together to create a match-on-action sequence, which created a continuous edit. During the video there is a costume change which happened unintentionally and by accident, however we feel it works well with the spy type soundtrack we have placed with the video. We have learnt the importance in consistency when filming and editing, so when it comes to making our final music video, we should take care to make sure everything matches unless there is a time change during the video.
