Evaluation Section 3: Post-Production

During the editing process for the video, we had to select which images and videos fitted the original video the closest. It was quite difficult to edit the clips so it would follow the beat of the song because the clips in the original video change every time the beats in the song change. It was also quite tricky because a lot of the majority of the clips were under a second long just like in the original video so it was very fiddly when editing. We also found it hard and impossible to edit the background of the clips so it would fit the coloured background in the original video.

Overall I think the recreation video was very successful because it follows the original video very well and closely such as the dancing of the actors is the same and the clips changing on the beats of the song is the same as the original video. The original video challenges the 'norm' for conventional videos as there is no narrative in the video and it is just the two artists dancing in a coloured room. If I was to do it again I would have painted the walls the same colour as the walls in the original video if my group was allowed to do so. I have learnt that simple details in music videos is very important and need to be considered closely during the production of the video.
