initial video x wizkid the mater

This is my groups & I preliminary task. We first found that an outdoor setting would be more suitable and also make the video more interesting and also there would be better light quality throughout the video. We got into groups that were testing to see whether we could actually work together before finalising our groups, we choose a song that was very specfic to the afrobeats genre and created a basic music video for it. The purpose of the task was to practise lip-synching, test out different framings and getting a feel for what directing/producing/editing our own music videos are going to be like.
 
To edit the video we used Premier Pro which allowed us to add a lot of effect such as cutting the video, adding transitions. This really helped us to make the video more interesting and have conventions of music video. The camera we used was Canon DSLR -we used autofocus to ensure the video had the best quality, as well using a tripod to keep the camera steady and stable, all these details aided the video to be as professional as possible. However, I think so our quality was effected because some of the video the is a high exposure that makes the video not as clear or current.

A strength of the camera work is the variety of shots we got within a limited time that were given to film in. We filmed a mostly basic shots therefore we can have a clear lip sync. In doing so having a variation of shots are important to prevent the music video of being unprofessional and lacks content.

weakness of the camera work is that most of the shot we took had extra people in the background and we was not able to use them shots because there was a lot of interruption. Also because we decided to use two actresses the lip sync was hard to match with both of them because they said the words at different paces for most of the shots.
