editing techniques used in music video

1. For our music video we used various
different editing techniques to create
an professional looking video.
one of the editing techniques we used
was cross dissolve at the beginning of
the video to find into the first location
of the video the bath room.
To create this technique I first clicked
on video transitions and click on the
cross dissolve faded and placed it just
before the footage played, which
allowed to create an fade in.
The next editing technique
used was overlay. To create
this technique we selected
two different footages such
as one of the central
protagonists and long shot
of a busy street to establish
character and location. To
do this techniques we placed the establishing shot (MVI_6529) above the close up shot the
character so both clips can play at once which allowed the video to be more effective.

2. This editing technique
is used to establish
two main characters. The spilt screen
was created by placing one of the video
footage of one of the characters on top
of the other allowing us to create a
spilt screen.
Slow motion was used to match the beat of
the song in one of the chorouses. To create
the slow motion effect I right click on the clip
and selected speed/duration which allowed
me to change the clip spped slower to match
the audio. We changed the speed to 30%
which made the clip slower and also to create
the idea the POV from the main character
holly is drunk.
