i thought the law and the law won exercise

the next task was to make a video ourselves and by using a song we're given. we didn't know what song we were getting and we didn't have any time for planning. the exercise was so we could practice lip syncing with the music. we got 'i thought the law and the law won' by the clash.

we automatically got a rough idea of what we were going to do so we got to work straight away. we filmed each person twice so we had more to edit and we found it easier singing the song rather than mime it because it looked more genuine.

after filming it, which was loads of fun, we transferred it onto final cut and began to edit. after we finished that we watched them all and gave feedback. feedback for me was:

-good lip syncing
-good performances, compliment the fun song
-needed more variation of shots, most were the same angle
-the idea for the video was good and complimented the song
-well cut

this exercise was a good practice before we did our proper videos because we can learn from our mistakes and feel more comfortable with final cut editing a music video
