Sam edited all the way throught the lesson today and we helped him out by telling him what to do and giving him ideas. We were not allowed to use the green screen during lesson time as this got in the way of people who were constantly waling in and out of the room. We stayed behind to film with the green screen. As we were setting up, we saw a green blanket which had a slightly darker tinge to the green screen itself so we had our doubts. we thought that if we wrapped ourselves around it it would give the illusion that our heads were floating. As the song played, we sang along to it to make lip sinking easier for Sam. filming went succsesful.

Editing in the previous lesson took alot of time as we could not produce a sloppy piece of work. Whilst Sam continued editing, me and Andy went back to the drwaing board. We came up with the fantastic idea to make the video really phsycadelic by having a funky background on the green screen whilst we dance around as if we were on acid. The plan is now set for the next lesson.

Again, we handed the footage over to sam. Me and Andy are not very good with Final Cut. He got some really good shots edited and the camera work off me and Andy ended with a fantastic result. The shots were energretic and fast paced. we tried our hardest to avoid boring band shots so we threw in some hand held stuff too!

Our lesson today began in the afternoon straight after lunch. We got together at lunch to set up the drum kit, guitar and bass to begin filming band shots. We filmed it in the theatre which is equipped with lights and sound. A dark light was set to give it a mise on scene of a gig. The shots we needed were collected. we got still shots and some hand held shots too. especially on the drum kit to emphasise the power and loudness of the instrument.

Today, we handed the raw footage over to Sam. He put it up on the Mac and onto Final Cut Pro. Our plan with the footage was to keep it in sync with the intro of the song which is really fast paced. We got the first ten second edited but the cuts didnt really seem as upbeat as we hoped them to be. Then sam suggested we should make the cuts twice as fast to give it that upbeat feel to it. we did that and we giot exactly what we wanted. But then we all thought it looked too modern and decided to set the contras up and give it sepia tone to give the illusion that it was filmed in the late sixties and early seventies. It was perfect...
