Final video

 

This is our final video, we have now transported it into Adobe Premiere Pro to add a trasition from black and white slowly fading to colour, this represents our narrative clearly as it shows her going from sadness from her previous relationship to her happiness looking forward at a better life without him. This links to our ancillary tasks as in our image she is looking back and forward.

We added set in and set otu points so that we could select the right parts of the video to gradually change from black and white to colour.

 

This is us exporting the video so that it is able to be put onto youtube as a video for us to put on our blog.

 

Our final video starts with our artist walking towards the camera to represent her coming back to her relationship and reminicing it, we have dressed her in a denim dress/dungaree over a checked shirt to show a country style whilst looking feminine with also her hair down blowing in the wind to support this.  We have started the video in monotone to show that she feels as if there is no colour or brightness in her life without her ex boyfriend.

We then show her playing the guitar or just looking around in a daydream to represent her thinking about her previous relationship in sadness. In some of the clips we have included her hair blowing in the wind to create atmosphere. We have also tried to use lighting to our advantage as we show scenes where the light is either shining behind her in the distance but never on her face.

We have then captured her performing to the song and sometimes playing the guitar with a sorrowful look on her face giving the audience the impression she is having feelings of loss and regret.

As the song reaches the chorus we have decided to gradually tranform the colour from monotone to bright warm colours to represent a change in her feelings. As the colour slowely fades into colour we see a change in her personality and mood as she begins to smile and laugh more showing signs of happiness and independence.

In the next scenes we have used bright, colourful backgrounds to emphasise this change in emotion. When she performs the next chorus we see that she gives more energy and power into the performance, this represents her realising that she is better without the boy and can be a strong, independant young girl.

We then are presented with more bright scenes showing her look happy whilst looking elegant and at peace with herself.

The last scene shows her walking away from the camera to signify her walking away from the relationship and coming to terms with the loss, she then turns back and looks at the camera showing us that she now has power and happiness.

Throughout this video we have sued slow motion as we thought that it suited the song as its quite slow and it gives more of a dramatic look to the scenes, espeically when the wind blowing her hair is slowed down.
