Hi all, this is the first time I shot a "real" music video (did a mostly motion-graphics one on a greenscreen a few years ago).
Looking forward to some pointers on how to improve things since I plan on shooting some more shortly.
Dude this looks incredible. I don't know who your colorist is but great job. This looks very professional for ur first go around w/ HDSLR. Keep up the good work
You absoloutly did a good job!
Though youre asking about possible improvements, I might have a Tip for you.
An importand rule in Music Videos is to never bring the same shot twice.
Of corse you can do it and many music videos do it, but I think you are repeating the same shots of the musicians a bit too often.
Try next time to collect shots. Different angles, different focal lengths, Portraits Details to prevent your Clip of getting boring and more shots would give you the possibility to cut a bit faster, what would have fitted the song.
If the viewer gets the feeling he has already seen everything that will happen, he stops watching.
You keep him watching by continously showing him new shots, or by a really intense Performance, like Duffy in warwick avenue.
