Music video draft

So here is one of my first drafts, it not completly finshed as i was just testing on how to

put separate videos together, i have come aware of some problems

such as pixals become interfered with other stop motion videos.

Also by creating a draft i have become much more aware of how to edit and

reform and sort out occuring problems, i am aware of several pull backs to the video

but this makes me learn more and how to make it better,

i am not sure whether to use the car travelling as the beginning of the video, as

in a certain aspect it could reflect the journey towards 'Colorado', here i have however first shown a scenee 'reflecting'

colorado' and then included the journey after a slight introduction,i feel this is effective as it introduces, so the music video becomes reconsible to the song, and the car moving image

extra, adds some depth pulling the audience into the video, asif

they feel part of the video.

Creating a draft i feel is a way of summarising what to do, what to do to improve, and to reflect on amplifying on other ideas.

From creating this draft, i have realised i want to add further footage of the beach making the beach shots longer, i'm not so sure about the wind- kite shot, even though it fits with the timing of the music, i think its quite bland (boring), i want to include more shots of people running, i have also noticed i much prefere the colours of the beach in the opening shot compared to the rest. The footstepps shot does in fact include me in the shot (well my shadow) i liked this at first as it showed direction, but of course if producing such a mainstream video its unlikely, very unlikely that you would feature yourself however, this is a school music video and so i suppose its much more personal.

I have found this quite difficult so far but its on it way to production..
