Final week 8 EXP

This week was very successful for me as I experimented with different applications and was able to create a music video to one of my tracks. I was helped allot by chloe on how to create it and get an understanding on how to edit the music video. Uk producers (especially London based) promote there music on websites like Soundcloud, Spotify and other similar websites made for music, although in recent years more producers have released music on Youtube. This new  craze encouraged me to try and promote my work on there.

 Here is an example of another UK producer who has done something similar. Releasing music on Youtube is just reaching to another audience who may not use Soundcloud. I also know from personal experience that it is allot more entertaining with a video being played behind it.



I was able to find a video online matching the tempo of the track I had produced. I then downloaded the video to import it into Premiere Pro. This is the video I was able to use and edit so that it would play similar to my track.
The video worked well along side mine as the both were played at 140 bpm. The editing was easier as the beat was so similar. This was my first time working on Premiere Pro and although I feel that the video complimented my track, I believe I could have worked on it allot more affect wise.
With the effects used I changed the lighting to a blue lighting behind the video. I then added my name at the bottom left by importing some text 'Silent Tracks'  I was then able to cut up part of the track at 1:30 again so that as the snares and crashes came
out, I set it to a calmer scene where everyone was walking instead of dancing. There wasn't allot edited as it was my first time on the program, but I still had cut up scenes by dragging them. When i create my next video in the future, I will feel confident in adding more affects.
