Production Evaulation

Music video production evaluation


We firstly started by watching music videos with the rest of the class to get an idea on what we would be doing for our music video1. These music videos were all different genres of music2. Next we researched which ABBA music track we would be doing we then finally choose “Honey Honey”. We then finally made an animatic, this is a drawn storyboard scanned into the computer than processed on to a programme called” final cut” we than placed the storyboard along with the music track to create a moving storyboard. We had a couple of problems with people being ill me for one as I had one day off for being ill so they couldn’t record the main scenes of out music video also our scenes couldn’t last the whole track and we had to use parts of the video we already used also we had to cut bits of our music as we were using the Mama mia version not the original version as the original had a verse in it that the mama mia version didn’t so we had to cut out parts of the music to make it run more smoothly. Our music video cannot be in anyways illegal because we make sure we don’t have sexism or racial slur in this as I believe anything illegal or ethnical is very inappropriate It talks about real life thing as some relationships might have the girlfriend or the boyfriend cheating on the other person and with their best friend also the women in our music video are very powerful and show their power against me also they very sexy as people will be attracted to this video. I believe our music video is nearly the same as normal music videos as all of them seem to talk about the same story3 but I believe our music video is different as it contains a very different story4. People will like it as it sometimes deals with real life situations. We have changed the music, as we didn’t have all the scenes we needed so we had to use scenes we already had used in the video so the drawing is very different from the motion picture. We will use advertising to get our new music video out saying “see this fantastic new re-make of the mama mia sensation Honey Honey” we are using persuasion to get people to watch our video. This advert will be on music channels5. We kept our music video light and comical as it normally surrounds a very serious subject but we also gave it a bit of a comical side. As we contain us laughing at very strange but funny things and also we have a little bit of sarcasm. I would like to change how much time we had on doing this project as we did have very much time to finish our filming so we had to use different parts of u music video that we had already used in the video
