In our media lessons, we have currently been practising Final Cut Express ready for when we edit our music videos. So far we have looked at Split Screen 1 and 2, Colour Correction, and N Square.
My area to look at was split screen, which was hard to pick up at first but now i have gone through it a few more times, i have learnt how to do it properly and am confident i will be making full use of it when it comes to making my own music video. The way in which we exampled split screen to the class, is that we made a short video of 3 people and split screen to make it look like a conversation between them. So there was one long landscape clip at the side then the 2 other people were split smaller to make the other side. It was very effective as we made the people in the conversation look in the right directions as to who they were speaking to at the time as some were at a lower angle and some at a higher angle.
We have also been looking at the different effects that can be used. I chose the distortion of the fish eye, then played around with the scale making it higher so it will be closer to the eye to make it look a bit mysterious and a little fightening. This effect would probably be used if you were getting a close up of the artist in your video which then could be suited for the sinister music genre.
Next week we will be looking at green screening which sounds very exciting and more definitely something we will be using in our music video.
