Experimenting with bloopers

Today I thought I'd use some 'left' over footage from the Pitch Video to experiment and practice with effects solely in Premiere Pro.  I found a way of creating a flash bulb transition by key framing a small section at a high brightness (appearing to be almost white), and changing it back to normal. It's an effect I've been meaning to try out as it is quite common in music video and is an effect I will consider for post-production of my video. I have practiced changing the rate of the video playback in my previous videos but yet again it is typical of music videos, especially slowing down shots to get a more dramatic effect (like in the Editors' No Harm video). I also had a go at cloning myself at the end, which was tricky than I thought. It would have been easier if I had planned out the proxemics. Although after a bit of tweaking I think I managed to convey the illusion of there being two of me in the room.

Another song idea I had was Moaning Lisa Smile by Wolf Alice, I had a few ideas about this song but there is already a music video to it. She's Hearing Voices by Bloc Party is another song I am considering, as the lyrics are interesting and have a possible reference to the Matrix, which means I can include intertextual references in my video. There is also no music video to this songs,which is good and a narrative/performance video could work with the track. Joy Division -...

Casting

There are four main roles to be filled in my music video; these being the protagonist, singer, drummer and bassist. The other minor roles are characters in the classroom scene who are part of the 'friend group'. So far I've got all the main roles filled and one minor role. For each of these roles I've given the actors an information pack with the filming dates, their characters roles, costume, and the outline for the music video.  Protagonist: The protagonist from 10woodre Drummer: The drummer from 10woodre Bassist: The bassist from 10woodre Singer: The singer from 10woodre Friend 1: The friend from 10woodre
