Notes on coursework

On the 11th of september sir showed us servel different music videos that people have made for their coursework. The videos we watched where 6underground, spread love and anyone esle but you. Here are the notes i made of each video:

6underground

- the lip syncing was good and she lip sync every word, but was often out of time with the music
- during the video shes always walking which i thought looked good
- in the middle of the video the camera spins around with give the video a good effect
- there are many different settings, including a subway, london, chinese town the toliets etc
- the girl that starred in the video looked the part, becasue she had the right clothes on, make up and props with her
- theres a transision between two of the shots with was like a graphic match
- editing that is mainly use is flashing

Spread love

- the main character in the video did not fit in with the song at all. This is because the song is an upbeat, rock song. Whereas the boy in it looked like a nerd with hes glasses, spots etc.
- the actual band performance was fantastic
- but the over all video, you can see that all the cast put in and was commited to this project
- the location was a church, which went well because u wouldnt imagine playing rock music in a church
- over all the presentation was good and thats what counts

Anyone esle but you

- the relationship between the couple looks real, and people will believe they are a couple even if they arent. So they are playing their roles good
- within the video theres a good graphic match
- they isnt really that much lip syncing, so they could do more. But they do lip sync the main chorus with shows them epthesizing those words
- mis en scence, everything within that section fits in with the songs, like the clothes, setting. props ect.
- transitions used are mainly fast dissolves which is used throught out
