During this video you will be shown the last two scenes being edited by Zacaria. The editor firstly uses the fade feature to good effect as he uses it in time with the narrative, By this I mean that Zacaria has used the use of a fade to represent the actor sleeping, this is an effective transition as the fade clearly shows the partition between the two scenes, The fade turns into black by separating the clips. The next scene initiates with a fade in, this is a new edit similar to the fade out tool however placed at the start of the clip on the timeline and the user chooses the duration.
The editor then chooses to preform the cutting to the beat
task again, Zacaraia has achieved this by taking time in listening to the audio
and placing the clips where the image arts, this is shown in the videos as
there are pauses before the editor is placing the clips into place, the editor
has a free range of movement in where the clip goes and therefore he is able to
place the clip anywhere on the timeline.
Zacaria has re used the fade tool again to great effect when
showing the actor running down the hill and showing his journey. The use of the
fade tool has been prevalent in our music video as it is an easy tool too replicate
and reuse in different scenarios. This is a great transition period as the
video shows Zacaria has cut numerous images while still referencing towards the
storyboard to rehearse the chronological order.
Zacaria has used a zoom in effect with the camera leading
straight towards the actors face, this is effective as it shows the characters
emotions and shows the mis en scene to the audience. The zoom in effect has now be duplicated from
a following scene and used on this clip. The zoom tool is used on the clip
however this time in the opposite fashion moving the camera forwards. The clip
then follows the actor transitioning into another zoom in effect; this is
apparent and is striking foe the audience who now are intrigued as the climax
of this journey will ensue. Zacaria has moved the two clips on the timeline and
has placed a fade out effect on the first clip, this shows the clip is going transparent
and then proceeds into the next clip. This then follows with the use of another
fade leading into a wide shot of the London skyline. This shot is very striking
and shows the audience that the actor has achieved a test of climbing the
mountain. The shot also shows a different perspective of the view in which the
audience normally see which is on the floor.
Zacarai had a dilemma as to what shots will fit in the last
scene and therefore tried and tested some of the shots in different positions
along the timeline, this allowed him t o get a better feel for the end of the
video and shows that his patience with the work was well rewarded.
When reaching the climax of the music video Zacaria used a
few more editing procedures in the final scene, there is a distinctive fade
apparent when the actress is looking at the actor for the first time, however
there is a new editing technique which zacaria used and is achieved by using
two different clips together with one clip having a lower opacity achieved by
editing the clips settings. Zacaria has then used a cut tool on one of the
clips in order too make it seem that one of the clips is flashing, the final
use of a fade is at the end and is of the two actor’s and actress walking away.
Although not stated the colour correction applied is used by inserting a
gradient overlay on all of the clips and adjusting the hue and saturation of
said overlay.
