It is worth nothing how there has been a massive switch in the importance of youtube from television channels such as MTV.
Most viewing of music video's now appears to be online.
An example of a music video which has been successful by the use of internet and youtube is gangnam style, this is because it was online and everyone heard about it and we continue to watch it as it funny and entertaining.
When doing the preliminary task I learned how to lip sing in a music video and the production of a music video, I learned that you have to film several takes and sing out loud to make sure you're doing the correct mouth movements and you get into the rhythm of the song so you don't have to have the paper in front of you. Also we learned that when you're doing the takes for the video not to leave caps, as this loses momentum and you forget words so we continued filming and re-doing the video until we was happy so I knew the words of my heart and didn't lose momentum.
After filming the music video-post production this is what we did after filming. We firstly uploaded are video on to apple imac. To edit our video we used Final cut express. We used layers to layer the film so we could cut vertically and I used the taggle clip overlayers which is where you take a piece of the video and lift it up on the timeline then it will play that part then go back to main timeline. This is how we managed to cut from one singer to other and both together I used the pen tool to highlight the part what we needed to edit and then locked it in so it could be changed. We used the markers to mark on the track/clip and lift it up on the timeline using taggle tool and we matched them up to the lip singing was in time with the actual music video. Lastly I learned how to remove the audio, using the link selection tool to the song fades out.
After analysing the music video I think we edited it really well and the lip singing was excellent however sir did seem to be putting more energy and enthusiasm into the video them me. So for are actual video we will get someone who is confident singing in front of people and someone who isn't confused singer and performing in front of people. We will also continue to use the different angles of camera as this worked well and do the filming several times with no caps as this worked well and i didn't need the paper.
All that I have learned doing this preliminary task i will take on board when i do my actual music video and i will remember all the things that worked well ion the video and what problems we had so we don't repeat them but overall i think I learned a lot from doing this preliminary task and it did give me more confidence.
Copyright is when someone produces a song/product ect and then saying its copyrighted, which means that no one else can copy their idea as they had it first.
Another definition of what copyright means:
"A copyright is a set of exclusive rights granted by a state to the creator of an original work or their assignee for a limited period of time upon disclosure of the work. This includes the right to copy, distribute and adapt the work. In most jurisdictions copyright arises upon fixation and does not need to be registered.
The purpose of a music video is to advertise and promote the song they are singing. The video is created to appeal to a wider audience and a variety of fans. The more you promote your music video the more fans you will have and this will help to widen your fan base and you will have more of a chance of being a successful singer/artist in future. Advertisement- You need to advertise the music video as it draws attention to the music/song and it illustrates the song, and by advetissinf you ate appealing to a visual audience and it expresses on individual emotions as the song tells a story and markets an image to the audience. it also promotes the artist and the single or album the artist has created, by watching the video it will persuade the audience to by the cd/download the song and this will raise the audience awareness or profile of the artist/group.
The image above shows the brainstorm that we did for are music video.
