practicing with the camera and editing software.

For my first practise shot i decided to do three shots of the same person and put them together because this is one of the ideas that i wanted to use in my music video and wanted to make sure it worked. 



After doing this i figured out some mistakes and told myself that i was going to learn from them. The mistakes i made where not softening out the edges. And to pick a better background if i was going to use the green screen. I found that too difficult so i changed my idea to filming the parts i wanted to in the green room and instead i am going to film them in the white photography room so the balloons and lights will stand out better. I am still going to use the effect of repeating the same person more than once. 

For my second practise shot i wanted to just mess around with the different shots and put them together quickly.

I thought this went well because it showed myself that i can do quick shots from different angles.



For my third practise shot i wanted to do a four way screen with the same person carrying on a part of the song. 






From this practise shot i learnt that i need to cut the shots down more and leave more seconds before and after the actual speaking part of the footage. I am not sure if i am still going to use this effect,but it would be nice to include it.



The fourth practise shot i did was to put it in black and white and try and find a effect what will look like its counting something.





After this practise shot i correctly did the black and white effect but the counter goes up in seconds and i wanted something to count the 'miles'. I am going to have to work on this and find another way to make it look like the miles are getting longer and longer.



The last practise shot i did was putting a coloured filter over the light.


This shot did not work at all because i turned off the light so you couldn't see anything and the purple filter effect was not really see able.
