Animatic - This Is The Animatic For Our New Video

This is our animatic for our new music video choice, Melanie Fiona 4 AM. As part of preparation for our final video we had decided to do a paper practice of our video that we would like to create, we had Sath and Prince to make an animatic.

Practice Shots

In order for us to get our filming right we have decided to split up the shots into groups so that each member of the group can have practice shots of what we would need on the day of filming.
Firstly, we asked Sath and Prince to work with a male to shoot medium close ups and side way shots as well as moving shots to show how the male lead would capture the video.
Here is a video with what they had come up with:

This would not be the male lead we would be using however, he shows some of the ways our male lead would be filmed.

Animatic For Our Music Video

Jessica and I had left Sath and Prince in charge of the animatic and this is what they came up with. I felt that this was successful because that got the shot in time with the lyrics and I felt that the shots were carefully thought out.

This is what they got up to behind the scenes:

To begin with, Prince and Sath started watching the official music video for our song choice 'Adorn'. As they were watching the music video, they wrote down the different shots and angles in the music video.

  They wrote down every single shot that was used in the entire music video and the length of each cut. By the time they had finished the entire song, they had a couple pages of shots to group and analyse.

After they had all of the shots, they started analysing them to show which shots were most used and how effectively they was used.

Once they had analysed the different shots used in the actual music video, they started to write down shots for our own music video.

Once the shots were written down, they drew them out so we can put them onto our animatic.

Once they finished the drawing, they had uploaded them onto the computer and cropped them out into smaller pictures of each individual shots.

Once all of that was done, they opened up 'Final Cut Pro' and inserted all of the pictures and the song.

Once they had all we needed onto final cut, they started putting pictures onto the timeline according to the song.
