More Editing



As we started to edit our video together we followed the basis of the story board ideas, and when we filmed we got lots of the shots that we planned to do get. While editing we did change things like the start of the video and removed the scenes of the bath and decided mutually they looked better towards the end of the song.


We wanted a very jumbled look, so that is what we had in mind when we were editing. A silhouette shot was one of the random impulse thoughts we had when we were out. We added in our hand and loved the way the dark silhouette contrasted with the light coloured sky. Using jump cuts we created these shots to fit with some of the lyrics talking about 'Pinning up the clouds like patches' to connect the lyrics and visuals. 

This was one of my personal favourite shots as it was very aesthetically pleasing to watch. We recorded the bath water draining away after the bath scene, with the flowers and light bulb in. After watching it and seeing how long it took to drain away, the rabbit shows how we sped it up so it appeared the flowers moved more. It was a really nice outro for our video as it was calming and went well with the calm vocals and instrumental.  

As you can see we chopped up the clips we filmed quite a lot to create a jumbled and jump-cut style we thought and wanted to be represented in our video.

For example in lots of our shots even though we filmed them quite slow we slowed them down more as we felt like this went with the song conventions more. The little tortoise shows this. We also included lots of close ups of of the props we used as they were really important in capturing the dreamy, indie, old feel.
