Rush The Process

  The last day of our production was insanely difficult. There were so many places to go and to finish the filming. One of the more difficult obstacles we faced this day was filming at the gym, at the particular gym I go to, they don’t like lots of filming. I was using a professional video camera so hiding it was more difficult. However, I got the scenes all finished and the end result was amazing! It was a very stressful process to finish the scenes perfectly, however it was such a satisfying feeling to know I was done filming! This day I completely transferred all the files from the video camera to my computer and began the process of editing, I had to transfer a song into the file and then begin to organize my scenes. I had to go through each scene and cut and edit them. After going through every clip and editing them, I picked the scenes that seemed the best fitting and imported them in order. After this, I imported the music. I had to purchase the song due to a copyright violation , however all went well! Editing the scenes and matching it towards the music was very hard. The time limit set on our music videos are 1min and 30 seconds so I had to make sure I did not surpass that limit. The different transitional cuts added length onto the video making the clips of my scenes shorter which made the music video less interesting so I had to edit the music to have it match the scene so I could get more time into the video and more transitional clips as well. After this process was done, I realized I did not like the gym clip at all. The next day, I went back to the gym to film yet again and continue the process until I had my perfect clip, after this I had to redo the entire editing process because the clips and music needed to match so I redid everything I had done the night before. Finally, most of the process was done. Tomorrow I will continue to edit until I find the perfect video. I am so excited to see the final product of this music video in its whole self.
