During the last day of editing, we made a few small changes to our music video. We took our rough cut feedbacks into consideration and used the last day of editing to make simple alterations. We also finalised our opening and closing shot to ensure it was as effective as possible.
We also watched it several times to see if there was anything else that needed to be changed. One thing we noticed was that the second half of the song was not as strong as the first half in terms of editing. We thought that this was because we did not edit to the beat by mirroring each shot from the first half. It took us a while to figure out that the second half consisted of more still shots which meant that there was not enough movement in the second half. This was a major drawback as the first half of our music video had a lot of movement and it worked very well with the beat in the song. In order to make the second half a lot stronger, we went through other shots that we had a took parts that had more movement and used them instead of the still shots to recreate the first half. After adding the moving shots, we definitely saw a huge difference in the music video.
We included another shot that mirrored the first part of the music video where we manipulated a shot so that it matched the rapid pace before the chorus kicks in, we thought that we would mirror the editing from the first half (day shots) to the second half (night shots). This works well as it matches the structure of a song (repeated chorus).
