update / A new direction?

wow this thing hasn't been used in a while so ill give you a quick update.

After uploading the footage and editing it we have our selves a pretty sweet video. From the feed back it all seemed dandy but when we asked for opinions certain answers kept cropping up:

Train looked stupid, takes where too long, lip sync in south bank scenes was crap.

Well we re-shot the southbank / G boy shots in the urban capital of the UK, Bury st Edmunds And took the train out. However we stuck by the long shots for a long time as we liked the idea of the movement towards the camera and the skill required to do one constant take without any muck ups. We also saw that in beastie boy videos alot of the time its quite long shots of the three of them rapping to the camera.

THIS CHANGED TODAY!!!!
After agreeing that most music videos cut alot to keep the audience intrests we made a new video with the old footage only cross cutting more between differnt lines to difernt angles or locations. We also put in shots of just us without any lip sync. The result was Great it was alot more visually engaging and the few people who have seen it liked it.

So where do we go from here? the current plan is to get alot more footage from differnt locations to cross cut inbetween but save it as a differnt project so we can always go back to our old one. This is a massive advantage to us being well planned at the start as we have time to effectively shoot two videos (even if they share alot of footage).

Hope this goes well and ill update this when we know more :-)
