Subject: [AP] Multi-cam edit and shoot
A few months ago, someone was asking about multiple camera shoots and
edit, here's an example, it's a music video for a Sweden pop artist that
is now slowly garnering a lot of attention. This was shot by using 6
cameras: Sony TRV900, Panasonic GS70, Panasonic DVX100a, Canon XL1(2)
and one camera used in Sweden to shoot the singer (yes, he was there,
and we asked a friend of him to shoot him on a clear background and
incorporated him into the music video theme).
So, it has also a blend of PAL and NTSC, it's kinda annoying to know
that over in Europe, anyone can watch a NTSC DVD through their dvd
player while we suffers to be able to do so with PAL (Unless you have an
all region dvd player).
The entire piece was edited with Premiere Pro 1.5.1 (even with the
effects used), What I did was simple:
First lining up the 10 versions of the singer singing and cut into a
fast paste video that will be used for the final version, this took some
time as looking for the best of each cuts, lining each one of them on
separate tracks and then sync them up by the wave form with the official
song (the cd version)
Next to shoot with the cameras and get all the footages, since the
cameras' audio was on, it was used to sync up the clips with the wave
form, however, I ran into some issues with 3 cameras at one point, we
forgot to turn the audio on. SO it was done by synching it based on
their mouth movement (all frame by frame based)
Lastly, took a break from the rough cut and went back and trimmed the
video to my satisfaction (some scenes were sped up, see if you can
figure out that), then go through each clip and to color correct it to
make it match, it was not as bad as I originally thought as the color
tones were very close to each other (camera wise)
Finally, encode it for web, now the versions you will be watching online
is DARKER than the dvd version because of encoding, so if your monitor
is dark, some areas won't be seen well, please keep that in mind.
Why did I want to do this, it was a volunteer work, because the song was
way too catchy :)
So, here it is Drama Queen the music video, directed by me, sang by
Bimbo Boy (www.dramaqueenvideo.com)
Enjoy
