Editing The Montage Section

 Today we decided to edit our montage section of our music video, this is the last section of the video. We wanted it to look more upbeat than the rest of the music video as it was supposed to represent the girls happy memories of her and her boyfriend. We needed to also make it obvious to the audience that the girl was entering a dreamlike state. So by using final cut express we could make the contrast and brightness at least white so that it was noticable the setting was changing. This is when the brightness was changed;

To also show the memories the quality of the video was not as good as the rest of the filming, however this made it look as though they were home videos or it was another persons point of view of the two people.

We used vignetting to get the corners of the frame to go darker to make the two characters seem more centre of the frame. This is how we done it;







And this is what it created;
- You can notice the dark shades at the top corners of the image.










Furthermore we made the memory shots all the same length so they fitting with the song better.












We also edited the colour and the contrast of these clips so they looked brighter and gave a more happier feel to the music video
