Pitch
Above is my pitch about my FMP product.
I received feedback for what I chose my research report to be about.
I also received feedback on how to apply my research report to my final product.
What is the end?
And how to finish it properly.
Test Shoot Plan - Subject to change
TEST SHOOT ONE:
Confetti Cannons launching in slow motion. No direct subject needed in shot as the slow motion is the focus.
EQUIPMENT:
Sony A7III + BlackMagic + Studio Lighting + Studio + Confetti Launcher(s) + Libec Tripod x2
TEST SHOOT TWO:
Confetti Cannons launching in slow motion with camera mounted to gimbal. Camera pulls backwards as confetti launches. Subject needed in shot as reference point.
EQUIPMENT:
Sony A7III + BlackMagic + M50 MKII + Studio Lighting + Studio + Confetti Launcher(s) + Weebil Gimbal
TEST SHOOT THREE:
Lighting and performance test shoot. General check of lighting positions and camera angles. Also looking out for performers and directing them on what looks good and how things can work well for the shots.
EQUIPMENT:
M50 MKII + Canon 80D + Studio Lighting + Studio + Crane V2 Gimbal
TEST SHOOT FOUR:
Placing all the test shoot together to test edit transitions between shots and basic additional colour grading for my type of shots and their style.
EQUIPMENT:
Premiere Pro
Initial Casting and Project notes
These are just some notes from talking to people who are potentially going to be involved and how I'm making an effective plan to maximise mine and their time and produce as much content as I can. This is a key element and a majority of performers aren't from Callywith College so I need to plan when they can make it in and what we will do with that time, hence the weird abbreviations of words.
TEST SHOOT 1 - Slow motion confetti
This was good practise for practical use of the studio for direct project benefit. I used two different high frame rate cameras filming at the same time to compare the visuals on each camera and also to practise framing of the confetti and how it would generally look in slow motion.
For shooting this I used both the Black Magic 6K and a SonyA7III both shooting at 100fps.
TEST SHOOT 2 - Slow motion confetti
This was a very similar test shoot to the last, however it was filmed in 240fps and the camera was gimbal mounted.
Sony A7SIII Mounted to the Weebil gimbal.

TEST SHOOT 3 - Lighting
This was a simple test shoot using different lighting in different positions in the studio.
Risk Assessment
T-Shirt Weather: Test Edit
Killing in the name: Test Edit
This test edit was only made to demo some of the colour grading and footage taken.
RATM - 'Killing in the name' - Part Edit
Above is the first proper part edit of the music video, along with lots of photography I did on the main day of filming.
RATM - 'Killing in the name' - Part Edit
This edit features lots more B-Roll footage filmed in the studio a week after the main filming and also more colour grading and some footage moved around.
RATM - 'Killing in the name' - Part Edit
This is a more complete edit featuring more of the B-Roll footage, camera shake presets, more visual effects, re-edited colour grading, and cuts moved around.

Finished Product (Pre-Feedback)
This is the finished product, uploaded so I can share it for feedback and make improvements to it before finalizing my product.
Feedback benefiting the final product
The final product was improved majorly by the addition of a performer giving their all to the lyrics, and a more consistent colour grade and timeline. This addition was majorly inspired by this result in my survey which clearly shows the performance did let down the other elements to the music video.
This was also inspired by these comments left under "What was done well?" and "Was there any outstanding issues?"
RATM - 'Killing in the name'
Finished Product (Post-Feedback)
This is the final product based off of the feedback produced to me through my survey and screening of the pre-feedback final product.
