Here is our final music video for Hello by Adele

This is our final music video for Assignment 3 in Unit 29. In this production, I was both the director and the Cameraman for this music video, you can see this in the picture below as I am holding the camera and filming the actress. whereas Gabby was the lighting technician and produced it, you can see this  as she is holding a light over the actress face in on of the shot's below.

 We were both editors in this assignment and used Final Cut Pro to do so. There is also a picture of us on our Lunch break. Finally, featured in the music video are many actors that we will give credit to. The main actress was played Omer Golani, the other actors included were Morgan Jays, Brandon Krasny, Adam Regan, Sophie Fisher, Olivia Berger, Danielle Viner and Bailey Plaskow. Gabby and I also played roles in the music video. Gabby played teh role of the sister who comforted the main actress and I played a role of one of the Judges who were "judging" the main actress. 

The pictures of our background footage is availible to view below.

Audience Feedback

We showed the music video to our classmates above and we received both some positive/negative feedback from it.

We received a lot positive feed back from the class. Every time who watched the video enjoyed it and said that it was fitting to the song. One of the classmates said that they liked the black and white effect on all the shots because it provided a tone to a video and it could make you understand the Story line more.Some of our classmates also enjoyed the story line and found it easy to follow, through the video.  Some constructive criticism that we received was the acting and the lip syncing of the actress, that we were using. They commented that sometimes the audio/visual effects didn't synchronize and that left them confused. They also commented on the acting of some of the individuals in the music video that were not as strong as others, which might have left a lasting affect on the overall image of teh music video. Finally, one weakness was that some shots were confusing next to others because the footage we used was shot on different days and therefor the actress looked different. Overall, the comments were positive and the negative ones, we will take on bord for next time
