Carrying on editing the chorus

I have now done some more editing to the chorus, carrying on with the progress on the editing of my Music Video.
  
From looking back at the editing that I have done last time, with the shot from the back of Ellie swinging, I thought that the shot was too long so I decided to cut where it was in time with the music and add a more close up shot from the back. I had to edit the shot so that the swinging would match the other shot and would flow. I really like this cut as it makes it more interesting and also more creative. 

For the next line of the lyrics, 'I know I've got to let it go', I added the shot of Ellie letting go of the swing so that it reflects the lyrics. I decided to slow the shot down so that it matched the speed of the song as the lyrics drags out longer. To change the speed of the shot, I went to 'Modify' on the top bar and clicked on 'Speed'. I then altered the speed till it fitted with the song. I really like this effect as it makes the video look more interesting and also adds variety and creativity. 

I then took a close up shot of Ellie letting go of the swing and also slowed it down even more to suit the music and to make it more interesting and quite edgy.  

For the last line of the chorus, 'just enjoy the show', I used the a close up shot of the empty swing swinging so that it reflects the character moving on and going to enjoy the show.
