The Pretender Final Cut



This is the final cut of our music video, we have made many changes from the first time we had been given feedback from the screenings. The video used to be in colour, which when then later changed into black and white. We also added a lot of close-ups into the video to make it seem more fast paced as we wanted to create a sense of panic and danger throughout the video.

Final Cut Development


This is a screenshot of the final cut development we were doing. Here we have all the different clips inputted into the timeline along with the music track at the bottom.

The Pretender Music Video Draft 7



Here is our newest version of our music video. We decided that we wanted to remove the blank spaces at the end of the video and add some footage of the band playing, we did this as we thought it looked like the blank spaces were errors in the video. We also want to change some of the video slightly by fixing the sync of the singing at the end as it is a little off. We also want to fix the sync with the clapping and make it so the shot of the bridge at the end isn't as long as it is.

Editing

Today we was editing the video and trying to make small improvements by adding all of the new close-ups that we had. We found specific places that could make the cuts seem more fast-paced by allowing it to cut to different shots. There still needs to be some improvements made to the cut as you can see there are some places where the close-ups need to be moved to be in time with the music more. There also needs to be some other changes towards the end of the music to make it seem smoother, we are still experimenting whether we want the blank spaces to be blinks or not.

The Pretender Music Video Draft 6



This is the sixth draft of the music video, we decided to add all of our close-ups that we had that we never used so that we could have more band parts to fit in with the narrative. We wanted to make the video more balanced, to do this adding the close-ups helped make it more balanced.
