Preliminary Video Choice

In this lesson we were asked to find a simple music video that we can copy just as a practice. We only have to make up to a minute of it. This will help us get into the mood of filming and editing again and will help us when we are making our actual music videos.

We have chosen to make about 30 seconds of this video as it i quite simple to do. We have chosen for me to be Lily Allen.

Here's the music video:



Here's our storyboard:
