Expert Advice

Having been through the music video with a proffesional in the industry, he helped to give us ideas for improvements and enjoyed our relation to the pop genre and the colour use. he suggested that the fade outs to black were a little sudden and shocked the reader as they were quite random compared with the rest of the editing. he also suggested to expand our cut away scenes as they would help to link the narrative and the performance.

with new ideas in mind we went through out video again and wrote a list of improvements and we also want to take a step back and try outr some of our original ideas.

List of improvements:
the first layer effect needs a smoother fade out.
get rid of the fades to black
crosss fade the paper effects
put more cut away scenes where the current special montages are
the effects need smother fades
fade the keyboardist out befor the eyes are superimposed
dissolve the spinning shot to the kiss

test out our original idea of fish eye on the band
try out the use of our other special effects including the use of honey and acrylics, used in the test shots.
