IPHONE 5!

So a little while ago I treated my self to an early Christmas present, that's right the iPhone 5, and it's finally arrived. As you may be able to tell I am a little bit excited about it, one thing in particular that I'm excited about is the Blogger app which I have just installed, meaning I can blog on the go. LIKE RIGHT NOW!

Editing

Today I continued editing my music video, focusing on the film burns which are over the dream/memory section of the music. The reason I am paying so much attention to the film burns is because I don't want them to be to strong, and make the video look tacky. The burns are there to represent that fact this dream is in fact the memory of the couple breaking up.

Additional Sounds Effects

For my music video I wanted to include the sound of ocean noises or a wave breaking surf, I felt this would tie in well with the music video both visually and lyrically as it has a nortical theme. I also planed on calling the  album Ocean Noises, this is another way the sound links to the project.

Here is a Youtube video of the type of noise I am going for, I intend to play the sound at the start and end of the music video.

Music Video Second Draft

My second draft of the music video, I still need to film and add some footage as well as edit a lot of the footage. Like the film burns used, I think they are slightly too strong still.  But I am happy with how it is coming along.

Music Video Update #1

Music Video - Editing Update #1

Since putting up the first draft version of my music videos I have made a few changes to the video, by moving some the footage and trialling different effects. The most important change I have made though is the layering of the light-leaks or film-burns, these were an important feature to me for the music video as I think they show that the part of music video they are over is a memory really well. Although this effect is not crucial to the music video, other effects I have applied don't work quite so well.
The film burns I'm using are from digital cinema, and were a free download for four different burns.

Draft Music Video

The first draft of my music video, shots still need to be added and edited but it gives a rough outline. Also I would like to do some addition filming to film in some areas.
