Change of Mind
I have started to edit my music video and have watched all the footage I have taken so far, and I feel like it doesn't truly match the storyline I was planning to use for the song. So I have decided to change the storyline again too Georgia going on a travelling holiday, seeing as much as possible so she can discover her true self. By doing this I will be able to use all the footage I have taken so far, and I feel it will fit the footage and song more. Even though the lyrics are 'You and Me' throughout the song I think this will create a sense of her trying to find her soul mate, and by finding her soul mate she will discover herself.
Audience Feedback
I have asked several people to watch the video I have produced so far, and give me their honest opinions of how I could improve, what they like and what they dislike.
Susan -
Susan feels there are some fantastic shots so far throughout the music video. However she feels there is no storyline, and she doesn't understand where the storyline is going and how its going to end. Susan feels the scene where Georgia is talking into the camera doesn't work as she can't hear what shes saying and also that the scene of Georgia in the pool doesn't work, as the camera isnt stable enough. Susan also thinks for the chorus I should add a shot of Georgia addressing the camera singing the lyrics; she thinks that Georgia should be dressed up like she would be going out for the night. Susan also feels that I should reverse shot in the mirror for this scene, with a midshot closing up into her face landing on her mouth.
Tayla -
Tayla thought that the landscape shots were really good. There are some good transitions into different scenes, but she doesn't understand the storyline and Tayla feels that the video jumps from different scenes. Also one scene goes from night sky and fireworks, to daylight which doesn't contrast well. Apart from that she thinks its really good and well done so far.
Lily-
She likes the way it doesn't jump cuts, its solid throughout the video. Lily also likes how I filmed it abroad in America, rather than a typical video in England. She also likes how the fireworks and the beats work with the song; she also likes the shot where I'm filming Georgia biking, but I'm also biking behind her so it's following her.
This is the draft that everyone has watched and given me their feedback on.

Filming Update
Filming over the summer went well, I got a large amount of footage. I feel I have too much as I don't know where to start. So I am going to have to start again with the storyline, watch all the footage I took and think again about how to start and set out my video.
Over the summer, whilst I was on holiday I was filming the footage I have. I was planning to film in Graceland, however once I got there I was told I wasn't allowed to film. Which was really disapointing, so I only got a few shots of the sign post.
