These are some of the photo's from our trip to Barry YMCA Media Centre in which we produced, filmed, edited and casted for our music video. Throughout the day we undertook various stages in which are used to make a music video.
Story Boarding/Planning
We used this technique to plan out what would happen in the scenes of the music video so that when we shot the scenes we knew who was in it and the actions of the people. Through doing this we got an insight into what it would be like when storyboarding a huge production like a professional music video or even film/TV program. We had to make sure the timings were right and in sync with the music so that it made sense and looked good as well. Also through doing this we were able to make decisions on who to have in the scenes and what they would be doing. Through doing this we were all getting an idea what it would be like to direct a scene as well because we all had to manage a certain section of the music video.
Filming
When filming we learnt a lot as we had to consider the lighting, sound, camera angles and positioning of the people in the scene. We used the green screen and the green and blue screen cameras so that we could film our scenes. We also had to make sure that the people were positioned well enough so that the lighting didn't effect the shot and the people in the shot. We had an issue with this which led to a person in one of the sections of our video having blue light on them because they were too close to the camera.

iMovie Screenshots and the Editing Tools We Used
Here is iMovie. This is the program we used to edit our music video, do the lip synchronisation and modify the green screen background. It was one of the main reasons why we went to Barry YMCA so we could learn more about it and what we can use iMovie to do.
This tool is called Inspector. We used this so we could edit very specifically how we wanted the audio to sound, the video to look and the lengths of the clips to be. We used this so we could get an idea as to what it would be like editing a huge production. It also enabled us to understand and overcome problems we had with the clip, video and audio.
These are the audio waves from the green screen footage we took. We altered and changed this using the Inspector.
In order to edit our iMovie using the green screen we had to tick the 'Show Advanced Tools' box. This way were able to use more advanced techniques such as the green and blue screen.
This is the tab that allowed us to pick which advanced tool we wanted to use. We used 'Green Screen' and 'Blue Screen' the most because that is what we filmed with.
