Recording and Editing: Photo-shoots/ video/ sound

this is the set up we made in order to film our video. We used two bright lights and placed them further away in order to not have any shadows behind the model when she walks.

we then told our model to walk from one point to another across the white backdrop and we placed two small points on the floor in order to make sure she walks across in the same line every video and that she is always in the centre and positioned the same.

we made her change outfits for the different decades and got her to walk across in a straight line so we have all the decades when it comes to editing the final video.

we also decided to take a few photos of the model in the different outfits in order to have a balance of videos , as our main final animation and a few images to be able to make them animated or play them one after another to make it look like they’re in stop motion..

we recorded 5 videos , in a portrait format in order to capture the models whole figure and get the whole walk.

we did five videos in order to record five different outfits throughout the chosen decades.

we then uploaded all of our videos and our gif that we edited from all of our images in adobe premiere pro in order to be able to cut down clips and edit them to make our 30 second clip.

we included all of the original videos and played them one after eachother to show the outfits slowly and progessively changing into different decades, we then included our quick and cut up 3 second video that we ended to show the difference in outfits really quickly as this was our main goal. By adding this is made the overall video more interesting as the beginning showed the outfits in detail and you had time to analyse them however by adding and making this cut up version you could see how different they all are when they all change as the model walks in a straight line. Then to finish the final 30 second video , we included the GIF that we created with all the images we took and wanted to include to finish off the video to show the model presenting the different decade outfits.

EDITING THE FINAL VIDEO;

We imported all the videos we took to start creating our video, we had five original walking videos, one edited video of it cutting through different clips rapidly and one GIF.

We then selected the order we wanted them in and we started with the edited video first to have a solid start, and the included all the original clips so that they play one after another, and at the end included the final edited video again and finished with the GIF.

We drag and dropped all the clips in the timeline and made sure they didnt overlap eachother.

We repeated some of the clips are few times in order to reach the time limit and give the viewers are better insight into the outfits.

We placed them all in the correct order and selected the final layout and now had to add sound.

We had to include music that was copyright free , so we took a sound that fit in the best and edited it with our video.
