Edit Decision for Unit 16


Edit Decision for Unit 16
 
For my gaming video I decided that the software I’ll be editing the video on will be premier pro. I will start the video off with humour adding some footage that I had on my IPad of myself, I will then go on to explain what the video is about. I will then use an extract of game footage and I’ll also include voice overs. The voice overs will be used majority of the time when game play footage is being showed. I’ll add images to my video which will explain some data I collected for the video.

Concept for mandem vs food

The concept for mandem vs food is three guys who go and try out different types of traditional food, they review the food talking about what’s good about the food, how we fill about the food and if they think they would recommend people to eat these types of food. The traditional food we chose is Caribbean food. We’ll be travelling to a restaurant called Rock island where the food we’ll be served.
The target audience of our documentary will range from ages between 14 – 25 both male and female. Reason being is because we want our documentary to appeal to a young audience as majority of our views will be a younger audience.

Our first original ideas was to involve a lot of traditional foods like Chinese and African dishes but due to limit of time we only came down to one traditional food. The documentary will feature a bit of humour but also a bit of information about what food we are eating. 

The genre of our documentary is food reality.

The video will begin with us getting to the restaurant, as we do so some text will come up showing the title 'Mandem vs food' then we'll have the hosts of the show introduce themselves and they talk about what there going to be doing and how it'll work. We added some shots of the restaurant in the video while the music plays. When we get to the food we'l speed it up so we can to get the review a lot quicker and also so that it doesn't bore the viewer

Task 1 Essay draft


 

For this Essay I’ll be demonstrating and assessing the development and principles of editing techniques. For my first assessment I have chosen a music video by J Cole called apparently

 

J. Cole’s music video is set in several different places, with the settings you can see it’s more of a cinematic set as there’s videos showing his past with his mother and his childhood memories. It’s also dark when showing the videos behind J Cole so as J Cole is singing he isn’t as visible. In camera editing was done here as it’s used to manipulate light so all we see is the shape of how he looks, you get some shed of light to see J Cole when the video brightens up. There’s a wide range of camera movement in the music video as it starts off with a close up on j Cole then coming to a mid-shot but as the music video progresses it starts to capture J Cole’s movement in a wide shot then comes in again with a mid-shot then the camera starts to move around J Cole but as it’s done it still focuses on his close up to capture the emotion. Camera angles in the music video are more or less direct when focusing on J Cole from a wide shot, mid shot or a close up especially when getting the movement of J Cole. The only effects is the lights in the video that change different colour as J Cole is moving. The representation for the music video was to show a heartfelt J Cole expressing his feelings about his mother to the audience. The message to the audience was to let know people know that they shouldn’t lose sight of what life is and what people close to them mean. The narrative structure of the music video is opened by J Cole expressing his feelings and ends with an electric guitar in motion play strings. The purpose of the J Cole music video is to promote and entertain. The target audience is for hip hop lovers between 13- 45

 

The song is about how he left his mum to deal with the problem she faced when J Cole was out in New York chasing women and a record deal and also apologising not only to his mum but his girl as well and appreciating what his mother has done for him. In the music video there isn’t many transitions if any at all that would normally be used but they use the light as it likes to get dark with in the setting to cut to different scenes, mainly the in the music video they just cut to different scenes within the music video. The song used for the music video isn’t a high pace high tempo song but it has soft but hard impact especially when it other instrumentals are being used and defiantly when it comes to the chorus where it’s at its loudest but the levels of the song stay consistent even though it has it’s moment when it gets quiet which usually show J Cole reminiscing and bringing emotion to the audience with the song then brings in the instruments and levels come back to a norm as it hits the chorus. Obviously as it’s a music video the song has to be clear and direct especially with the message the song is trying to give to the audiences so the fidelity/clarity of song is important in terms of the music video which was professionally made and sonically sounded great. The Rhythm in the music video is fluid so cuts to well-structured scenes perfectly.

 


This is an example of how light was manipulated to only see J Cole’s shape. The background the video acts as light for J Cole.
