In our video, we had a limited amount of cutaway shots which mainly consisted of our artist walking away from the camera or merely messing around. After showing the video to peers and teachers, it was recommended to us that we take out the cutaway shots or add more in. It was said that with the limited cutaway shots, it could be seen as a mistake, but with more added in, it would look a lot more purposeful. After much deliberation, we decided to take away the cutaway shots. There were numerous advantages of this:
- We were able to add more of our base tracks into the video.
- It contributed to the idea of the projector footage having a more prominent role in our video.
- We were able to make clearer the idea that our artist is the last person in a club.
- It looked a lot more professional.
Baring all this in mind - I believe we were right to listen to the advice and take out these cutaway shots. It leaves me feeling a lot more confident in our video, and the meaning it conveys.
