As practice for our main task we made a short re-creation of the music video to 'Happy' by Pharrell Williams. One shot we found hard was the initial tracking shot through the classroom door. Originally we filmed it with me and the camera on a tripod sat on a office chair with wheels. However, due to the bump of when the chair crossed into the classroom we decided that the footage wasn't stable enough. Although, after filming again with a shoulder mount the footage was more stable. Half of the footage was film in school and the rest was film outside of school. The overall look of the video isn't really too consistent because multiple people and cameras were used to capture the footage so there wasn't continuity in the setup of the camera. That being said it was only a preliminary task to get us used to the equipment again and to the different pace of music videos.
Today I decided to have a go at using a green screen, I want to see if it would be something that I could use for my music video. I used this article to help me get rid of the green background in Premiere Pro: How to Chroma Key in Adobe Premiere Pro Chroma keying is usually something that is done in After Effects, but sometimes, whether the simplicity of the project or just the fact that you do not want to send your footage to After Effects, you'll want to chroma key in Premiere Pro. Premiere Pro comes with a great keyer built right in called "ultra key." Here's a short video, note this is only for practice purposes and trying out the keying setting on Premiere Pro. After trying out the green I don't think I would use it in the music video, because it would be hard to make it look like the two aren't different images due to lighting consistency, and I don't think it would fit in with the narrative/song I'm thinking about making a music video fo...
