Just to keep you filled in on whats going on with the project at the moment, as deadline day is now on Friday!! I am putting in many hours to try and get this editing sorted, after Ms Hill was able to mark our drafts over half term she gave me some ways which we could improve our video, this was by using layering, and splitting the clips in to multiple screens. Today I have been trying to complete this, with the help of Ms and a couple of YouTube tutorial videos I have managed to produce what I wanted.
Hopefully you can see from the screenshot above what it looks like, I have created it so that there are four different screens in one. On a certain drum beat these then split again to accommodate our third character and the screen is split into nine screens, three by three.
Here is a similar screenshot, I am just trying to show you how I managed the clip splitting. As you can see along the bottom were all the clips are we have multiple layers, which actually goes up to sixteen but you can't see them all. In the viewer screen (top middle) you can see how I shrink the screens, I had to use trial and error to get the right percentage as it wasn't as simple as shrinking them to 25% each. After finding the right percentage I had to find the right co-ordinates for each of the screens so that the effect would work right.
Here is the final screenshot, as you can see this is the final scene for this shot and I have managed to divide the screen into nine, after lots of tedious editing I have completed what I wanted to do. I will do this similar technique again somewhere else in our music video as I think it's a really effective technique to use and it that it really fits our type of video.
