Planning Editing Styles

Editing can affect a music video in many different ways it could be the most boring footage filmed in a average place but with the right editing skills the audience can still be entertained. The best thing I've seen edited is Yeah Yeah Yeahs's 'Sacrilege' it was directed by a french company called Megaforce. It is about a man being shot by the town and a woman being burnt alive but we do not find out why till the end, this is because it is played in reverse chronological order of shots of 3-5 seconds. The audience get more shock as the story goes on until the last scene where she get married. I think this is one of the most interesting ways to edit. It is also shot in small clips so that the audience doesn't get bored with the scene changing every 15-20 seconds.


Though out my music video I would like to edit it like the video 'Summetime Sadness'(Remix) with constant filters and moving images, I think by doing this it will keep the audience engaged and listening to the music, because the words are very pop like and about love the music and video we still need to keep other audiences entertained.  

In the music video have planned to use many different types of editing styles so that it will feel more like a remix and making it more interesting to watch. We will use a filter called prism so show her feeling confused and upset this also looks good by using this every time we hear the same sound it will look more natural it is not conventional to have filters and to change the colour of a . We will also use a bottle breaking, this will be used in reverse but also on repeat at one point to show how angry she is.
