Commentary

We have also had to make a directors cut over our pop video. Below is a few initial ideas that should help stimulate a conversation for out directors cut.

• Background - key aspect of whole video, helps to reninforce a creative, organic feel.
• Autumnal feel troughout video.
• The background was a textile piece that Jess created - Photoshoped it in, then Chromokeyed it in AfterEffects.
• Bike scenes - blue screen and used stop motion to make it seem as if they are cycling.
• Problems with the bluescreen, e.g. Fuzzyness because it was a course fibre material.
• The Pull Focus - worked well but the background gives it a sligthly distorted effect.
• Callums lip sync - problem as he did not know the lyrics that well
• High key lighting - positive mode of address
• Boat scene - how we made it. More theatrical effect as didn't use special effects. But was very hard to organize
• Montage of images at the end.
