Lip syncing

Lip syncing is something I am having to take a lot of time over for my music video. If the clips of the singer and band members are not synchronized with the music, the video will look unprofessional. Since I recorded audio with my footage, it is easier to lip sync because I can put the clips in so that they music on the footage is in time with the real audio, then all I need to do is cut the clip where I want it.

Work Experience

Camera that was used for filming

On Friday 2nd, I went for work experience with a BBC film crew. We were on two locations, one was a pub just outside Camden and the other was an old house in the same area. I was mainly working with the sound department and got to operate a boom mic for one scene and operate the mixing desk for two scenes. Here I have some pictures of my experience but unfortunately the picture quality isn't great due to the pictures being taken on my iPhone.
From this experience I learned a lot about filming techniques and camera operation, that I can transfer to my project. I also learned a lot about the most effective ways to organise a film shoot, and about how to position and effectively use lighting. This are all skills that I can use in my project.

PLANNING: MOOD BOARD

Here is a mood board that I created on the website www.bhldn.com . I have tried to get across how I want the music video to look and feel, how I want my audience to feel when watching it and how I want to have a very DIY approach.
