The one take music video is a music video filmed in one take, the first video was taken in college to the song Stay by Justin Bieber and The Kid Laroi. This was filmed on a phone with someone walking backwards while filming, we had someone spotting the person who was filming so that they didn’t fall and they were also making sure that nobody walked into the shot while filming. The second video is another one take music video that is also a practice shot for the final music video that we are producing. This is to the song Heathens by Twenty One Pilots.

Aspect ratio is the different sizes of films. The different sizes of aspect ratio is 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, 2.35:1.

1:1 is usually used on social media such as instagram.

4:3 is usually used when the image being show is ‘old footage’ or is being made to look like found footage.

16:9 is usually used when creating footage to be shown on a modern TV or mobile phone.

2.35:1 is usually used in films, it allows the film maker to go into more detail of what is happening in the scene and allows the film to be cropped to remove unnecessary space around the subject.

The three act structure shows the direction of the storyline that the video goes through. Act one (the beginning) which is where the characters get introduced. Act two (the middle) is where the story begins to intensify and you learn a greater in depth into the characters that you didn't know about before, plot twists also commonly occur in this act. In act three (the end) this is when the height if the action takes place (the climax) this is also when the action begins to resolve.

The green screen video is practice for if I want to use a green screen in any of my work in the future. This video was filmed on a camera with a tripod so that the camera didn’t move at all. I then imported the video into Premiere Pro and imported an image that I have taken to use as the background image.

To create the green screen video, I uploaded the video into Premiere Pro and also upload the image to Premiere Pro. When recording the video, we tried to get the green from the background as even as possible as this will help with the editing process. I then dragged the green screen video onto the timeline, placing the video one row up from the bottom so that I can place the photograph below the video. I then dragged the image underneath the video. To remove the green from the background of the image you go to the effects tab then search for ultra key and you drag that onto the clip with the green screen footage. You then using the pipette that appears choose the colour you wish to remove, in this case you choose green and the green from the video clip will disappear. Then select ‘matte clean-up’ and play around with the sliders to make the “fuzzy” spots in the video disappear.

Colour theory helps you understand the different genres of films, red tones are used in romance films, desaturated colours are used in apocalyptic films and blue cold tones are used in horror films. Blue and orange tones are used for almost every genre. These colour tones can change the mood of the film and help the audience understand the emotions that the characters are feeling.

Colour has the power of being able to influence how you feel without you even noticing.

Colour grading is applying colour to footage or images with the intention of changing the way certain scenes can make you feel.

The colour wheel:

The colour wheel is based on red, yellow and blue. The first colour wheel was created in 1666 by Sir Isaac Newton. Since then, scientists and artists have studied and designed many different variations of this concept. The colour wheel can be split into three different categories. Primary colours, secondary colours and tertiary colours. Primary colours are red, yellow and blue and these three colours are used to make any other colour. Secondary colours are green, orange and purple. These are made by mixing the primary colours. Tertiary colours are yellow-orange, red-orange, red-purple, blue-purple, blue-green and yellow-green. These are created by mixing a secondary colour with a primary colour.

As the video tutorial wouldn't work, I have included a screenshot of the style of the edit that I have applied to the video I have used. After following the video tutorial the final steps no longer work in Photoshop meaning that the editing style is only applied to single frames of the video at a time.

For the three way colour correct, we filmed Zac lip syncing to 9 to 5 by Dolly Parton. We then uploaded the video into Premiere Pro and edited video by playing around with the RGB curves tool on premiere pro. There are four channels in total. The first being the master curves graph changes the brightness and contrast then there is also three other channels which are red, green and blue and they change the different colours as stated. We then used the multiply effect to create multiple copies of the same video onto the screen at once.

To create the reflection music video, we started by filming Zac lip syncing to the song 9 to 5 by Dolly Parton. We then put this video into Premiere Pro and edited the three way colour correct into the video, we then also used the multiply tool to create multiple versions of the same image on the screen. To create the reflection for the music video, we played the video that was edited on the mac in class and had Tom sat in front of the mac wearing a pair of reflective sunglasses, this is where the reflection comes from.

Analogue and digital signals are used to transmit information, usually through electric signals. In both technologies, the information, such as any audio or video is transformed into electrical signals. The difference between analogue and digital is that analogue technology is that the information is transmitted into electrical pulses of varying amplitude. Whereas digital technology, the information is translated into binary format (1 & 0) where each bit is representative of two distinct amplitudes. There is an acronym of D.I.P.P.A which is used to remember why digital is better than analogue. D - up to date, I - interactive, P - portable, P - personalised, A - accessible - more of it for cheaper.

The production process contain:

• Pre production - planning, research, brainstorming, storyboards and concept art.

• Production - making, filming, recording, graphic design and coding.

• Post-production - finishing touches, editing and testing.

• Distribution platforms - how you get the product to the consumer, shops, streaming, websites, downloads and sharing on social media.

• Marketing - advertising, radio or TV or print, PR - creating stories for press, publicity stunts, apps, websites and social media.

• Exhibition - how you actually watch or play it, on a tablet, phone, TV screen, cinema screen and kindle.

To create the whip pan, we started by filming two separate clips. One of the subject walking towards the camera and one of the subject walking away from the camera. At the end of the clip where the subject is walking towards the camera, the camera spins and creates a blur. At the beginning of the second clip where the subject is walking away from the camera, the camera spins to the direction that the person will be walking in. We then uploaded the two clips into Premiere Pro and cut the very end of the first clip off and the very beginning of the second clip off and put these two scenes together, this makes the transition between the two clips look as seamless as possible.

To create the minute of me video, we started by setting two cameras into monochrome. We then set up one of the cameras on a tripod to create the master shot for the video. This camera also was the camera which had the Rode mic attached to the top. We then had the other camera hand held moving around, we asked multiple questions to Zac. We then uploaded the video clips to Premiere Pro and layered the two clips on top of each other. We synced the videos up by using the technique that we got taught by Dave to clap three times in front of all cameras so that we can visually match the claps and also see for where the audio peaks in three places. We then chopped the hand held video up placing that on top of the master shot to keep swapping between the two cameras, this was also practice for multi camera filming. This video was difficult to film as we had parents coming into the room as it was filmed on an open event.

To create the blending layers video, we set up the camera in the studio area of the classroom. The camera was on a tripod facing towards a stool on the floor. We then positioned the camera at the same height and didn't move the camera between the shots, this caused issues as we should have altered the height of the camera depending on the height of the person in the video. After we got the different clips, we uploaded them into Premiere Pro and positioned them the best we could to get the faces lined up to match, this doesn’t look as good as it could as we didn’t realise the height of the person would be such an issue. We used the screen option to turn anything in the video black invisible to create the blending layers.

The arc shot is great for showing the location of the person, this can show what is surrounding your main subject. An arc shot is the movement of the camera in a full or semi-circle around an object or character.

Jump cuts are great for showing a long scene in a much shorter time period. This shot is used to help show a progression of time without needing to use the entire clip of the person walking towards the camera.

To create jump cuts, I used one shot of someone walking towards the camera. I then put the clip into the Premiere Pro timeline and using the cutting tool, cut the video up taking out every other clip to speed up the pace of the person in the video walking.
