Production of the music video

To make my music video i have used final cut express. For my music video i wanted to try and use all three types: performance, narrative and random image to film it. The story behind the video is that the girl is an young artist trying to make it in the music industry, no one believes in her and then she eventually does.

At the beggining of my music video i have added text which shows the name of the artist and the name of the song to make the music video realistic to my audience as this is something you often see when watching a music video. I have also added the mtv sign in the top left corner of the music video to add to making my music video look realistic.

The video below shows i created the reverse clip effect in final cut
I firstly go into modify menu and click speed , i then change the speed of the clip to make it faster and then reverse it so it looks like shes going back in time.





The next clip shows another effect i created in my music video:





To create this effect i firstly had to film a person dancing in front of a green screen.

I then added the colour key effect which would remove all the green from the video. In order to get rid of all the green you had to change the tolerance , feather and thinness of the colour key to make sure it looks as it is below.

After you have changed the tolerance, edge thin and feather it will look like this.











Then i cropped the clip to take out anything outside the black and i put a solid colour layer underneath the clip of the dancer which will make the black colour see through like shown below:















To then make the person completely black i added the colour levels affect to the video of the dancer and changed to tolerance to 0
