Final Cut

First Version:


This is the first version of our final, using the rough cut we eliminated some shots that didn't work and replaced them with some ones we managed to improvise when filming. Such as the shots with the characters on the swings. We were happy with our final cut so we decided to post it on Youtube and link it to Facebook to receive some audience feedback. We were told that some of the shots were to long and that there wasn't enough going on at some points in the text. We took this into consideration and produced a second version of our final cut.

Final Version:


We made some of the changes that were suggested this included adding some more action to two main sections of our text. One of them was on a chorus were we added to more shots of the boy and girl characters. And the other was at the end while the band was performing. We decided to added a few shots of the characters going in reverse showing that the boy character is dreaming "of better days with you now", with the text reverting back to the beginning.

Our final version is both performance and narrative, like most other music videos in our genre we switch between performance and narrative. Overall I am happy with how our group performed and how we worked as a team to meet our deadlines despite the fact we lost a group member during the process of creating our text.
