Change of Mind

After getting more audience feedback, I have decided to change the song to the original version by Disclosure. After letting a few people watch my video, and after getting their feedback I have decided to re-shoot some parts of my video.
I will be using all the scenic shots in the verses, and in the chorus I will be having Georgia lip syncing the chorus. I will use different shots  of Georgia singing, to create a variation of images. I will film Georgia from different angles and styles to create a variation; I will use mid-shot, close-up, long shot, low angle, high angle, etc.
I will either be shooting Georgia in front of a plain white background, a coloured background; a light yellow or orange colour. I'm also think of shooting Georgia in front of a white black ground to later on create a green screen affect, by putting the shots of Georgia on holiday and all the scenic shots behind her. This will create an affect of representing the holiday as a past event, so she's thinking about it.

Third Draft of Alevel Music


This is my third draft of my music video, I still haven't completed the video, as I feel the storyline isn't coming across, so I need to consider my options of how to betray my storyline better.


Amelia; Likes the song choice, she also likes how the song works with the fireworks, so when the beat goes off, so does the firework. She also likes the storyline, she feels that the storyline was about a girl that goes on holiday and about her life; she also feels like it’s about a relationship but you never see the boyfriend. She likes how I have added the fireworks more than once.

Sarah; Sarah feels both the pool scenes are too long, and that they need to be cut down. Some shots need to edited in terms of colour and picture, but otherwise she thinks its really good.

Becca; Becca likes the song, she also likes the fact that it actually filmed abroad, and that there numerous different locations. She also likes how it shows her journey. She feels its a disjunctive narrative. She likes how I have added the fireworks into the same beat in the song. She feels that if i had gotten shots on the plan it would've made more sense. Becca feels like i need to add more editing techniques. She likes the fact that I've choosen a song that is a remix, so its not well known popular song.

Abbie; Abbie likes the locations of the videos, and how its different in most shots. She also feels the lip syncing was really good, and stayed in time to the music. She feels that Georgia could've acted better, and looked less grumpy during some of the shots. Abbie doesn;t understand the storyline, which is a good point, because at the moment its a disjunctive narrative video. Abbie also feels that the fireworks shots are too long.

Current Draft of Music Video

This is the current draft of my music video. I have enlarged the sceen, so there isn't a black outter ring. I have also taken out the shot of Georgia talking to the camera, as it didn't work with the music.
