Editing Task Evaluation

The final outcome of the video is in my opinion decent considering the limited time we had to film and edit, however during this short time we did come across complications. A weakness of ours was matching the timing of the soundtrack to the video, however we attempted to do it as close as it could possibly be. Another weakness i have observed is the controlling of light as over-exposure of light is displayed in the football pitch scene; the natural lighting appeared to be a bit over-powering, this could of been controlled using the creative setting where it automatically adjusts to the current status. However, a lot of positive aspects were analysed as well, such as the performers dedication and enthusiasm is visible which enables the audience to have more of an emotional response. The tripod also enabled there to be more stability (which was lacking in my first group lip-sync task), this then added a sense of professionalism. There was a range of proximity's and composition used also as it intends to add more depth and charisma to the video. As for editing, as we are still not that familiar to the software, we struggled for the first lesson, however by the second lesson we developed more of an understanding and attempted to use more advanced techniques such as the fade of sound. The text inserted also correlated to the codes and conventions of the love genre.

Overall there is room for improvement but my group members and I are content and satisfied with the final outcome of the video.
