Assignment 1 Task three - Editing to the beat



Editing to the beat is when the images transition on the beats or on significant beats in the music. This is done for reasons like emphasising on the beat or the techniques used in that area. Also used to engage the viewers or emphasis on the lyrics. Editing to the beat involves the music and the music video. 
For my task I had to edit to the beat using Premiere Pro. I listened to the track a few times to get familiar with it and know the perfect time to cut the beat. Apart from editing on the beat i used a few video effects like lightning, split screen, mirror and duplicate. 
  These are the print screens of the steps and progress of my editing to beat and video effects editing





To edit the effect click on video effects which will drop down giving the chance to pick any of the options


This screenshot is for the split screen where two clips are split into two and when the video plays the clips play together but in half. 





If the clips are too close into each other, and are not seen properly the shot below shows the step, motion, drag it my the little circle, click on crop to edit what you want and click back on motion.









There are different techniques to use in a music video, the video below is an example of the effects i used and how i used them, split screen, lightning and mirror.

  1. Look back at the assignment, the last bullet point asks you to evaluate how successfully you have used the key music video production techniques. Please write a summary that covers this aspect at the end of your post.
