Group: Update

Above is a screenshot of some of the work we are currently doing in Premiere. We have been focusing on the title screen, with two shots of wheels (London and Brighton) spinning in a time lapse effect, split screen. There will be a title overlapping this printscreen shot, with the title of the band in the font that the band use on their official website. We have been investigating different editing techniques such as crop and time stretch to create this shot. We have matched it to the music, so it matches the beat of the drum. The title lasts the whole of the shot, which is 4 seconds, long enough for the audience to read the title and notice the background. A problem we encountered was that the shots, when cropped, did not quite reach the top and bottom of the screen when matched together, and we simply added a small black border to combat this, which we do not believe looks unprofessional. We took the font from a screenshot of the bands official website, where we then cropped it down, removed negative white space and added a colour overlay of white in Photoshop. We believed this would not be clear enough on the actual video, so we also added a black border to the text to make it very obvious. We then imported it into Premiere and overlaid it on top of the splitscreen shot to create what is shown in the printscreen. We have also imported more footage to edit on when this shot is done, and we have created another splitscreen of Toby singing overlaying on top of the crocodile at the tube station, which we again used the crop tool for. We animated the crop tool so the shot of Toby singing slides over the top of the crocodile, which we believe is lively and fun, the theme we hope to convey throughout our video. This progress is shown in the screenshot below.
