Pitch

 For this unit, I am going to create a music video to show my ability in creating cinematic footage using different filming techniques and lighting techniques. I will also demonstrate my ability to use a variety of camera equipment when making this project.

M1 - Explain the use of lighting and camera setting in the context of the plan you have created

 In this post I will discuss the lighting and camera types and settings I will use to capture industry quality footage for my music video. For the lighting of our music video, we will film in the lecture theatre as the room is dark with lights off and blinds down. We can eliminate most natural light to ensure the room is dark enough. We will use LED lights to create the desired lighting, using 3 point lighting (a key light, fill light and a backlight)  as  three point setup includes a key light, a fill light and a backlight).  The key light is placed in front of the subject and is the brightest light. The camera is placed close to the key light to get the central position of the subject and the camera may be placed at eye level. It is better to choose a light that has different temperature settings, intensity and control as it will give better results. This helps to account for skin tones and different backgrounds. 45 degrees is an ideal angle for the key light setup.   The fill light

P7 - Apply post production and editing techniques

Production (Rushes): Here is my finished music video uploaded to Youtube: Edits: Creating an offline edit is important as it allows the editor to visualise the edit using the clips in order before adding effects. Having the rushes unedited and in chronological order allows for an easier way to add transitions and other edits. Here are the settings for the Premier Pro file before I added the videos to the timeline. I used the timecode for the display format and used the Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration. I researched the engine online to learn about the uses of the GPU. Here are what I found: To create the sliding clips effect, I had each of the chosen clips in order on the timeline in the same colour order as the pride flag. The use of the colour order relates to Roland Barthes narrative codes as it is a denotation/connotation that can be inferred by the viewers. I also cropped the clips to be the correct size by using keyframes to correctly synchronise to the letters where each
