Here is the official music video:
What did you do to prepare for the lip sync exercise?
To prepare for this exercise was fairly easy, all we really had to do was figure out what shots we wanted to film in, and how we wanted to exercise the shot as well as learning the lyrics-
I stay out too late
Got nothing in my brain
That's what people say, mmm-mmm
That's what people say, mmm-mmm
I go on too many dates [chuckle]
But I can't make them stay
At least that's what people say, mmm-mmm
That's what people say, mmm-mmm
But I keep cruising
Can't stop, won't stop moving
It's like I got this music
In my mind
Saying, "It's gonna be alright."
'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off
Heart-breakers gonna break, break, break, break, break
And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off
I never miss a beat
I'm lightning on my feet
And that's what they don't see, mmm-mmm
That's what they don't see, mmm-mmm
I'm dancing on my own (dancing on my own)
I make the moves up as I go (moves up as I go)
And that's what they don't know, mmm-mmm
That's what they don't know, mmm-mmm
But I keep cruising
Can't stop, won't stop grooving
It's like I got this music
In my mind
Saying, "It's gonna be alright."
'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off
Heart-breakers gonna break, break, break, break, break
And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off
Shake it off, I shake it off,
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off,
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off,
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off
Hey, hey, hey
Just think while you've been getting down and out about the liars and the dirty, dirty cheats of the world,
You could've been getting down to this sick beat.
My ex-man brought his new girlfriend
She's like "Oh, my god!" but I'm just gonna shake.
And to the fella over there with the hella good hair
Won't you come on over, baby? We can shake, shake, shake
Yeah ohhh
'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate (haters gonna hate)
I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off
Heart-breakers gonna break, break, break, break, break (mmmm)
And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake (and fake, and fake, and fake)
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off
Shake it off, I shake it off,
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off,
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off
Shake it off, I shake it off,
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off,
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off,
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off
Shake it off, I shake it off,
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off (you've got to),
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off,
I, I, I shake it off, I shake it off
What did you do in the studio?
In the studio we learnt how to use the different types of cameras that were set up, some of which we had not been introduced to before. Whilst doing this we were also talked through how to use the lighting to our advantage in our videos. Then we checked out the set and decided on the final way to execute our shots, and decided who would be doing what. Through out the whole process we were also learning about the health and safety of the equipment that we were using. The most interesting thing being in the studio was learning how to perform a dolly shot.
What did you learn?
I learnt many things through this process:
- I learnt how to do a dolly shot
- I learnt how to change the lens on a camera that has no zoom
- I became more comfortable both in front of and behind the camera
- I also saw what role the floor manager and the director
What did you do in the suite, what steps did you take to cut the video?
Firstly we found all the footage that we had filmed and sorted our rushes out into bins. From here we them matched the videos, with the lip syncing to the actual music/ sound. From here we layered each clip so all parts matched and we could select the parts that we wanted to use a lot more easily and not have to edit it much more. We then decided on the pieces of footage that we wanted to use and from here we then pieced it all together and came up with our final product which came out like this:
What did you learn about editing music videos?
That if you know the process and have the right software it is not as difficult as it may seem. However i found that it was also quite frustrating and could easily be very time consuming as well. Overall i learnt that editing them is fun but it also takes quite a lot of hard work and effort to come out with a good final product
Did you make any mistakes on the day, how could you shoot or cut the video more effectively next time?
I would say that in order for the whole process to have been more effective that I should have prepared more and within our group we should have prepared and we would of had a much clearer idea of what we were actually going to do before we did it. Also I think more time could have been taken with the editing if we had it, in order to maybe put in some effects or something along those lines. Next time i would definitely get more involved with the editing in order to try and develop my skills.
Overall i would say that i really enjoyed the experience and it gave me a more positive outlook on what the A2 course holds.
