Music Video

I have always thought that producing a music video would be cool. This semester, I have the opportunity to make a music video. I have done tons of audio editing of music and vocal clips as well as putting together several songs into a medley. I will still get a chance to do just that, but I will also be adding a visual aspect to it. I am not very good at using video editing software so I'm hoping that this experience will help me become a better video editor because editing music and video together to make them sync is a very important skill to have.

I have decided to do the song 5:33 written and performed by Strike Out Kid. This is a local band featuring several students from Shepherd University. They are a pop punk band that perform songs that relate to high school and college students while still attracting older fans.

I am still trying to come up with ideas for the video. I might try and so some double exposure work of the band performing. I might try and create a story line for the song to relate what the song is about with a couple shots of the band performing. I also might create a story in color using tinting and filters on a camera or in the editor in order to create a certain mood for the viewer. Whatever I end up doing, I hope it turns out well and I will definitely enjoy the experience.
