8. Editing and Cinematography for Music Videos

This is an analysis of music videos nominated in MTVs 2012 VMA's.



Slide 12 is what we decided was MTVs criteria for choosing their nominees for best editing and cinematography.
A video that could have been nominated for 2013 is Justin Timberlake -  Mirrors.
I would choose this because the videos uses clever editing techniques such as fast editing, mirror filters, video overlays, split screens and slow motion. Because of the way these have been used, and the high quality to which they have been produced, i would choose this music video to be nominated for the VMA's 2013.

This is a test video for editing techniques using adobe premiere.

From this task i have learnt from looking at the VMA awards nominations what standard the video needs to be. i have also gained ideas from the nominations as to what to include in my music video when it comes to editing techniques. For the test video on the editing techniques i have learnt how to use adobe. As the editing came out as hoped for, i think that the trial went well. This has helped in understanding how adobe premiere works and should therefore make the editing process for the final product a lot easier and more efficient.
