Adding lip sync to my music video

This lesson I've been adding lip sync footage to my music video. This has become an important aspect to my video as problems with filming and difficulties with the cast have become a problem. To combat these issues I feel that adding more lip sync footage from a studio setting is a good option as it is easier to film at this location and I only require my male character present or filming.

Using effects on digipak

I have been using photoshop in order to manipulate images that i plan to use on my digipak. For example today i have been used it to make the particular image above black and white. I plan to use black and white as a main theme for my album cover and i think that simply experimenting with different ways the black and white colour scheme can be used is a good starting point as i can find out which i think is most effective and suitable for my particular cover.

Work on digipak

In today's lesson I have began to work on my digipak design. In order to create it I will be using effects on an  image I took specifically to be used on my advert and digipak, meaning that I don't have to take a screenshot from my video or anything along those lines. I hope to use various effects such as changes in contrast and colour to create a black and white effect and add text over it to show what the advert is advertising.

Experimenting with effects

More progress with editing

Today i arrived at college earlier than usual in order to have more time to work on editing my video. I decided that this would give me a good opportunity to experiment with the various different effects available on Final Cut Pro and see which of these could effectively be added into my video. Upon adding new footage into my video i then decided to add some of the effects i've decided will be suitable, for example i have added the Bokeh Random effect to a clip of a studio light, giving the illusion that the light is having added glare to the camera while it was filmed.

Progress with editing

In todays lesson i have been adding new footage i have recently filmed last Sunday (16th of November) to my video. I filmed the bulk of my footage on that day and i will be using that footage as a template to identify any areas for improvement i may need and as a guide to which parts of my video need gaps filling in as well as reshoots that may be required. The screenshot show an image of my editing on Final Cut Pro along new footage ready to be added seen next to the libraries section.
