Final Cut

Evaluation of the Final Cut.

Positives 

Eventually the Final Cut is completed. The positives of the video is that all the clips are in place and the there is no Black flashes left in the video.
The Effects in the video give the video a cutting edge and a 'Swagger' about it because it helps fade in/out each clips and help it become continuous and fluent throughout and the fast clips can keep the viewer intrigued.
Our video was difficult due to the thought beats being different in each chorus and the verus's . I slowed the music background down to see how I can get the clips to the beat and to see what was the difference between each beat on the track. I realised even if a beat was a mili second out it was noticed in each clip.
Hopefully the beats are correct because a little difference can make a big impact on the video.


Negatives

The couple of negatives are noticeable in the video.
1.The quick change shot leading to the final night scene needs re-doing because it is choppy and you can tell the difference of scenery.
2.Also at the start it is a bit chop/change so hopefully it can be smoothed out shortly. Its easily changed i just need to slow the clip down and create a smooth touch for to be more satisfying to watch.

Conclusion 

Overall i am happy with the progress made in the video.
The montage type video helps get across to the viewer to have a 'Good Time' doing whatever.
We have played around with stereotypes of male and females in the narrative of our music video. This is because we have shown a girl enjoying shopping etc while a boy enjoys cars and game consoles.
I still need to make the negatives into positives to make the video better even though this is a final cut i am going to 'tweek' the video to make it better. To do this i am going to slow the music down and count the thought beats and make the start of our music video fluent and aesthetically pleasing to watch.
Also re-film of the quick change is needed.
