Today I spent the majority of the lesson adding the other aspect of our music video on-top of the performers cut. This specific part of the video features the story of the individual who awakes inside a padded cell and after putting on his headphones the song goes into his head as he try to finds DJ equipment to play. It was great seeing the footage we took on the pick up day and working it into the video I had. It was difficult at first to know where I should put the individual clips of footage without breaking the consistency I already had with the performance cut. It took lots of audience feedback and perseverance and eventually I had worked it half way through the piece. The actor wasn't as skilled as Harvey the hanging man. This is because he isn't a theatre student himself. This made it slightly more harder as an editor to select certain clips that worked in the video however I took on the responsibility of working around this problem I was faced with by looking through every single second of each individual clip searching for the most believable acting and the best framed shots and contiuned embeding it throughout. I did have the issue of wondering where to place the clips and if I do or don't put a clip over lyrics because I feel asif when there are lyrics in the song it should be on the lip syncer. However once I tried putting vocals to the DJ it worked great and it looked good in the end. I will continue editing the second cut soon.
