By practising lip syncing to our chosen song 'Heartbeat - Nneaka ft Chase and Status' it helped me by focusing on what points through the song I need to pronounce and exaggerate the most. Looking over the video when it comes to the chorus or the song building up tempo, they are the places in which I should be over exaggerating my words to give more impact.
Throughout the song I tried my best to emphasise the lyrics, so I focused the camera on only my lips.
I found it hard to synchronise the lyrics when it was faster than the slower pace lyrics. But with practise and repeating them sections over and over hopefully I will be able to match it all correctly.
Even if it causes a lack of syncing then when editing our music video, shots of the actress will be used to cover it up so that the continuity stays the same.
As I filmed and edited this video on my Mac, it was my first time using the software 'iMovie' to edit it all. So I thought it would be educating to try and experiment on the different coloured effects and transitions, so in the future I could apply this knowledge when editing other things.
It also made the video a little more interesting than one long clip on the whole song. Furthermore I had a chance on how to edit it correctly in time with the music, as you can see at the beginning of the song my lip syncing is a couple seconds behind. But Sydney and Frankie in my group have great skills and the ability in matching it all precisely. Therefore editing for our final piece will be shared between all of us, to ensure that our music video is matching the criteria needed to get the best grade we can.
