SP - Mini-Vid Task

This week we have been assigned into groups of 4 and we got given 3 tracks to choose from. We had to make a music video that lasted from 30 seconds to a maximum of 60 seconds. The track we chose was called Clubbed To Death by Rob Dougan. We decided to choose this song because it had no lyrics so we could go down the concept route of music video. Another reason we chose this song is because it is more of a dance song was is was fast-paced so we thought it would be the easiest to film.

Here is Rob Dougan - Clubbed To Death, the song we chose to make a 30-60 second music video for

We have finished all the planning and we are going to be filming at lunchtime at school when we are all free. We feel this is the best time to fit in with the concept of our music video as we need quite alot of people to feature in it. Another reason we are doing a mini-vid is that we can be trying out the new HD cameras which we are able to use now we are going in Year 13. This means that we will all be able to use them by the time we want to film the real thin later on in the year. We will also be trying out Final Cut, the new editing software we will be using at A2. We are using all this new hardware and software because it will give us a big advantage before we even go into the coursework next year. Building up our knowledge of the technology now will save us alot of time when we come back in September. It will also give us more time to develop our ideas for our coursework.
