Editing Diary

This is our editing diary of our filming to keep updated on what we may need to change or re-film etc.
What was discarded?

 We had some ideas that we had kept in our video however they didn't match or look good enough to be shown as a music video, therefore we discarded a few hots we had taken and got rid of them however we kept them for rough cuts. We had to discard these shots in order to get better ones that fitted better.

A few things we had planned and put on our story board however when we filmed it we didn't find it effective and didn't think it looked right with the music.
What changed?

 We changed some of our ideas whilst filming as we didn't want to stick to exactly what we planned as when we started to film we decided it was a bit boring and repetitive so we wanted to add more shots and locations in, we ended up with more than one location not just the park.
Did it go smoothly?

 Our video as we stared to piece it together for the first time didn't go together perfectly however we did take parts away so that it sat nicer with the music, once added the second day filming to it we them was able to start to build our music video. We did have a few bits that didn't move nicely from one shot to the next however we edited this and it then sat a lot nicer. With it being a music video it does mean its okay to be slightly more chopping and more cuts than a film.

 This is what we got from our first piece of filming and second, however on our third shooting we are hoping to be able to sort out anything that didn't go smoothly or that was discarded and needed to be changed.

Textual Analysis - Sia Chandelier

                                                                        Sia Chandelier This music video is mainly well known for its  choreography as this is a memorable factor, there is no lip syncing - it is just literally Maddie dancing to the meaning of the song. Performance –  Sia doesn't like to star in her own videos, she has Maddie Ziegler a young girl who dancers throughout for her as a dancer. The performance is of Maddie dancing all around an abandoned, neglected location which is dirty and unpleasant. Lyrics -   The words "swinging from a chandelier" is usually know as a metaphor for partying to excess. As she states in the lyrics "party girls don't get hurt" so if she keeps drinking she won't feel the pain that addictions can eventually give.  She si...

Textual analysis of Toxic - Britney Spears

                                                         Britney Spears TOXIC Performance – When she is on the phone, it acts as if she is telling the story whereas the shots of her in her white suit is aimed to be more sexual and less story based. She performs every now and then in her see through suit where she dances and its quicker shots. Whereas when she’s walking on the plane its longer shots and slower crops, the shot on the plane tells more of a narrative. She is sexualised throughout the whole of the music video; however, some parts are more sexualised than others are. Shown by the costumes she is in and also movements, she is quite confident and out there, giving her a powerful image. Although the plane is filled with men she is dominant over them. Lyrics - Helps tell the story or give a general feeling or mood. Don...
