Editing Diary

The two main programs that I am using to edit the music video is Adobe After Effects CS5 and Sony Vegas Pro 10. Both these softwares are used at proffessional level which means that we can produce the best possible music video with the equiptment that we have.

Adobe After Effects CS5 enables me to create ground breaking motion graphics and blockbuster visual effects which will improve the overall look of our music video. The editing is going to be kept simple though as the band that we are using are retro so by using high tech motion graphics would make the whole video unrealistic. The colour grading/colour correction will be vintage style which enhance the overall retro theme of the music video.
Sony vegas allows the clips to be cut down and put together in a simple and straightforward way. The timeline enables clips to be viewed before they have been rendered. The music video will be put together in this program and then transfered into After Effects for the advanced editing.

The final video will be rendered in 720p at 24fps as that is what the camera films in.This will assure that we get the best possible quality out of the camera which will make our music video look a lot sharper. The finished thriller will be 1280x720 and will be uploaded to both youtube and vimeo.
