Britney Experience

Britney Experience

I learnt a lot about how to film while filming the Britney spears video. I never realised how much filming goes into making a music video perfect and how many takes you have to do. I also discovered while watching our Britney that lip-syncing is a lot harder than it looks. I never realised how long filming one shot takes and how getting the perfect camera shot and angle really makes a difference. Also the editing of the whole thing was a lot harder than I thought as each second has to be perfectly in sync with the track and the video of the singer. I found that I was enjoyed filming as I could help to direct on how things could be so that my opinion was listened to as well as the others. I thought we worked really well as a team and all the same idea of how it should be.

My favourite part was the filming itself as it was fun to recreate the video and be part of the actual making of the video.
I think that being able to practise the filming and editing on a well known video will help me to understand a lot more about the whole process and also to overcome mistakes I made in the Britney video and ensure that they don’t happen again. I also think that by seeing how a video was really made and how certain parts of the video relate to lyrics of the song I will have an idea of what to include in our own video and can use the idea of dancing and scenes as inspiration.
I think that my particular strengths were being able to work well in a team which I think we all did well as we all listened to each other and had a good time while doing it which I think is an important factor to the project.
