UPLOADING / EXPORTING FOOTAGE

When we had footage that we had just finished filming I had to edit insert it into the software which we where using to create our music video which is called Adobe Premier. Adobe allows us to edit the footage in a creative way allowing us to add different effects and transitions which therefore made our music videos look very professional. Once we finished filming a scene we had to upload the shots onto the I Mac's we had been assigned, we have been assigned Mac's as our music videos would be saved on this particular I Mac, once uploading our footage onto the macs, I then opened up the local student share folder and after his i copy and pasted it from the USB folder into the local student share folder, after doing this i put the footage onto adobe premier and started editing.

Exporting my 'Touch' music video was not a difficult task at all. When I was ready to export my work it was as simple as following a simple step by step instructions which were layed out in front of me. firstly I clicked on File, then went to Export Media. After I had chosen clicked on this, I had to change the format of my music video to QuickTime; as well as changing the preset to: HD 720p 24H.264. I then had to change the output name to 'Anthony Nazareth "Touch" Final Music Video. After the video had rendered and finished exporting, I then logged onto our class YouTube channel where we upload all our work to called 'Class DMV'. Following this I uploaded onto YouTube for the world to see.

ADDING EFFECTS



 There are many different effects, which I have used in my ‘Touch’ music video. For example the green screen effect Is the effect I used the most through my music video. I had to use an effect on Adobe Premiere Pro called 'Ultra Key', I would drag this effect onto the clip I was working on and it would make the background of the original clip disappear. Therefore I could put a background that I wanted onto the clip. 



















 










I also used another effect that’s called 'Warp Stabilizer' which makes shots which where shaky more stable. Furthermore, at the start and end of my music video I used a fade effect on the footage to make it look more professional.






FINAL EDIT OF 'TOUCH' MUSIC VIDEO





This is my final completed edit of my ‘Touch’ music video. I think my music video is very successful because of the sharp and quick cutting to the beat this gives the music video an exciting feel to it and therefore the viewers will be enticed and will not get bored while watching it. There are areas where I could improve my music video. Most of the shots are filmed with a green screen and I think the music video would be even better if I used a wider range of locations.
