3. Are you pleased with the footage and your edit? Is it how you expected it to look?

I am extremely pleased with the way in which the prelim remake turned out. I believe that we successfully achieved a music video of extremely high quality, even if it was not exactly identical to the original. The video we produced was synced extremely well and the level of acting was very good from all members of the media cohort. This is due to the dedication that we put in and the hours that went behind the shoot - both from the cast and the crew. We managed to successfully replicate the majority of the shots and completed the task to a very successful standard whilst also learning from the experience.


In particular, I thought the fact that we were able to add our own personality to the shoot whilst also making it look like the original was exceptional. This was due to the fact that we had planned so well, managed to get such a range of costumes and were so confident throughout the process.


The actual footage is better than I expected it to look, which is due to many factors including the use of, different, better equipment such as the Canon EOS 5D camera, which was better than the cameras used for the film opening: the Canon HV30. Also, the grading for the music video was of a high quality and therefore I am pleased with our efforts as a whole.


I am proud that we were all able to complete so much in such a short amount of time: a skill that is particularly useful in the media industry as a whole. It is also a skill that is transferable for other areas of life and shows a more mature approach to the practical side of the media course than during the AS film opening. It has thoroughly prepared me for the next year as well as later in life.
