Starting the editing process

Image
As we have filmed a good proportion of the filming we need to do. We have decided to start editing what we have filmed. Obviously, we cant edit it to the song yet because we have not filmed the main scenes, however we can still edit what we have together so we get a brief idea of what goes where, and how long it is going to be. Here is a picture of how and what we are using to edit what we have filmed. We have not put any effect on the clips yet as we need to see how the other scenes look within what we gave already filmed.

The preparation before filming

Before we start filming we need to make sure that Hannah and I have got all of the photos and props we need. We also need to think about the further filming steps throughout the term. To start with we have photoshoped one of the pictures we have of our Peter Pan. We have used a friend to be Peter Pan and then we have used Photoshop to make him look slightly cartoon like. We are also going to be doing this with the other characters too. We are doing this as we are not having real characters in our video, we are effectively just going to be using the photos we have. Below is he picture before and after Photoshop:  

Mise en scene and the visual themes

The video below shows how Wes Anderson uses mise en scene to entice his audience. From this video I have gained information on the tricks you can use to make the audience concentrate more firmly on the things that are happening. Throughout the video we see that the main characters and the main subject of the scene is ALWAYS in the middle of the screen. This is also known as the rule of thirds. Hannah and I would really like to use these techniques in our music video. We both feel as if it will benefit our final media product.

Possible filming places

Hannah and I are not certain on where we want to film the forest scenes. We have been looking forests that give us the sense of fairytails. Below are a few pictures of a possible filming place we looked at for the forest.
