Preliminary Task



From working on the preliminary task, I learnt how much time and work goes into creating music videos. For the preliminary task we were given 6 hours to film and edit our music video created for a clip from a music track.My groups music video was quite simple and basic to film but we only just managed to finish it in time, and this showed me how much effort must have gone in to creating some of the music videos for real bands and singers. We suffered some problems when filming our prelim, such as lighting problems and also timing issues. We used the smaller panasonic camera to film the different shots we needed, and found setting the white-balance before every shot difficult and time consuming. We also found that the overall clarity of the shots is poor and therefore I have learnt that filming in HD would be more beneficial and look more proffessional.
