With our music video being close to being completed and a lot of editing taking place, it has definitely not been the smoothest creation of a music video. My partner and I definitely faced some challenges, and I think we were both shocked at how hard it is to make a music video.
After deciding on our initial ideas, we soon realised that this would not be enough to fill the four and half minute song that we had decided to go with. Therefore, on several occasions we had to hire out more and equipment and film more footage. Having to continue filming on the week leading up to our deadline definitely panicked us and was not something we had originally planned to do, but we have pulled it off, and are now focusing on getting the editing finished in the last few days we have left.
Managing the time and having a free schedule the same as my partner was a challenge as we both have different commitments and jobs etc... meant that we on multiple occasions we had to go home or to the location we filmed at alone, and film parts of our music video on our own with help from family members. However we managed to complete our music video by doing this and our own unique skills are included within the product.
From what we have edited so far, I am very proud with the outcome. It is not perfect and still requires a few extra touches to make it more effective, but I definitely excited about what me and my partner have produced.
A blog post with the finished video will be posted shortly.
