Editing 2: Changing the Ending

Once we had received our audience feedback, which mainly had constructive criticism on the fact that we should possibly make changes to the editing so that it is of the same standard as the rest of our video, we decided to make action by seriously taking these thoughts from our audience into consideration. We re-filmed a scene that we could use for the ending instead outside at school and we returned to our computer to start reviewing the footage.

At first we were quite keen on what we filmed but it didn't take us long to change our minds. I think it was because the footage was much better than the ending of our rough cut as that previous footage was much worse, but this wasn't exactly a whole lot better. We filmed Nova lip syncing the end of the song in front of green leaves with white flowers so initially it seemed a good idea as it linked in well with the nature theme that seemed to run throughout. The lip syncing on Nova's part was very well executed however we still felt the clip looked quite rushed and as if we had to chuck it at the end of our video simply for the sake of finishing it- this is not what we were aiming for, we wanted it to look consistently at the same standard from start to finish. We started to reevaluate our editing and placed an overlay of the sunset featuring elsewhere onto the existing clip which gave a stronger link to our video as a whole but there is still something not right. As we are so meticulous, we organised another filming day in the studio to hopefully get the best quality shot possible.
