Film Reel 2020

The story and concept I was trying to portray was of teen life and the many different aspects of it.  I was mainly an editor for these films but I was also a cinematographer for them as well.  I showed good cinematography through different shot angles and different lighting that fit the mood of the individual films that I was showcasing.  I edited my reel based on the music.  I made sure that when there was a major key change that I chose a shot that fit the dramatic change so it felt smooth and seamless.  What I would do different would be changing some of the shots where they just jump cut so it didn't look as seamless as I wanted it to.  What I would do the same would be the use of a variety of shots that lined up with the music.  What is still needed to make my reel complete would be to just keep adding my work to it.

Music Video Professional Project Review Post

This video showcases a heist followed up by an intense car chase scene with the song Harlem Shuffle by the Rolling Stones playing over it.  The story was about just how intense these jobs get for Baby.  The things that I would take from this would be the intense chase and just how involved and dramatic it was and apply it to my music video.  What the creator did well was the suspense and action of the chase because it kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time.  I think that they did well and don't need to change anything about the scene.
