Day five of editing

wednesday the 2nd of December was our fith day of editing, and in this lesson, we had to get the clips that we used during the first chorus for the second part of the chorus as well. However, we decided to reverse the clip so all the transistions were backwards, this created an affect where everything she has to do to be this "prostitute" is a lot of work and she's finding it hard to come to terms with doing this job. We also put a clip of Rose standing in the middle of the road looking upset and down looking around, which we also speeded up the clip to make it look like she's in her own world very confused.

Editing day four

Wednesday 25th Novermber 2009

On the fourth day of editing, me and Gemma had to look for the singer singing the second verse of the song. We managed to find a clip where she sang that part of the song, however we then realised that when she sung the second sentence it was out of synch whereas the first sentence was. To fix this we decided to slow and speed up her singing, however this did not work. So we had to get another clip.











We also edited the clip of Rose behind the bar, which was a really good shot, and used it for the second part of the chorus. We also made the speed of this clip quicker which had an affective affect as it appeared as though, she was dancing behind the bar.

Day three of editing

Friday the 20th of Novermber 2009

On the third day of editing we managed to get all the clips we needed for the pre chorus where used quick shots of "rose" putting on her make up. The whole purpose of these shots was to introduce and imply to the audience that she is a seductive person. Once we cut down these quick clips we used a transition known as the "Cross dissolve", as a group we wanted this part of the music video to look like Britney's radar video with the quick flashes. however, on the mac, this effect was not available so we used cross dissolve as an replacement as it emphasised how busy her lifestyle was and also explains the narrative of the story.

Second day of editing

On friday 13th November 2009

On the second day of filming we bluetoothed the music onto the laptop, this helped us edit and synch the music with the lyrics. once we put the music onto the timelime we took a clip of "rose" walking down soho mainly focussing on her heels, which slowly introduces the character. We also took a clip of the singer singing the first verse and slowly managed to synch it with the actual music. Although this process was very difficult, me and Gemma finally managed to synch it so that it looks really realistic.

Editing first lesson

For the first lesson of editing me and Gemma paired up whilst Rahima was more confident in editing on her own. For this first lesson, we looked through all the clips we've filmed and gathered all the clips we thought we liked onto the timeline. We did this so that it saved us time the next time we edited so we don't have to watch through it again.


Filming day three

Today we went to film at Rahima's sister resturant in liverpool street. We decided to film in this resturant because we wanted to portray her premiscousness and that she's a very out going person. In this location we filmed Rose behind the bar, crawling on the floor and posing in different corners of the resturant. Through these shots, this portrayed her as a very sexual person.

On the Second day of filming, we filmed our reminaing scenes at Soho, and then went to london southbank in Waterloo. For this particular day we filmed jennifer, Gemma's friend who is the lead singer. We filmed her singing the song in different locations and from different angles. throughout the day we took many different pictures to use for our other part of our coursework.
