Music Video
This is the first video assignment in Intro to Video. The Music Video is intended primarily as an exercise to learn basic picture editing techniques and gain hands-on experience with both the camera and nonlinear editing. Each student must create a three to five minute music video using pre-recorded music. Attempting to “lip sync” is to be avoided, rather students are asked to concentrate on telling a story with images that relates to the music or enhances it in some way.
