Today's editing in school- the 2nd verse of the song

I have now started to edit my 2nd verse with only the parts of Ellie in it as I need to film some bits that I would need to put in this verse with all my actresses in it.


For the first lyric line, 'the sun is hot in the sky, just like a giant spotlight', I filmed this shot from a low angle and behind Ellie's head so that I would get the sun in the shot but also my actress in it. I really like this shot as it is really eye-catching but also different and creative.



I then added the spotlight over the top but I changed the opacity of the shot of the spotlight so that it looked as though the spotlight is the sun so it illustrate the lyrics. I then changed back the opacity for the lyric 'spotlight', so that it is emphasized.



For the next line, 'the people follow the sign', I got a shot where I filmed Ellie passing the sign and looking back on it as though the character is following it. I then took a photo of Ellie looking back at he sign to make the lyrics more emphasized. I edited the photo over the top and changed the opacity of it.





I also took photos of Ellie from different positions as though she is skipping along the path and I used these photos to edit to the beat as this would add creativity and variety in my music video. It would also appeal more to the audience as it is something different and new added in my video.

I now need to finish filming and editing the 2nd verse but in order to do that, I would need to film with all three of my actresses.
