Third Edit of Music Video


After adding more footage to the video, I finally worked out the problem with the strobing quality. The irregular strobing after exporting was due to the frame rate being at only 29.5. So with this edit I exported this composition at 60fps, this now means the strobing is regular and the quality of movement on the particle layer (0:47 to 0:59) is much more fluid, and less pixilated. 


This screenshot highlights the export settings I used to get the best quality. 

Second Edit of Music Video


After replacing the footage from 0:39 fading to 0:44, I think visually this section is now much more cohesive and fitting with the rest of the video surrounding it. 

This edit also shows more footage from 0:48. This footage is layered on to a composition I created within AfterEffects (Layer 1). The video on top of this (Layer 2) was layered with the use of PremierPro, and by making Layer 2 smaller than Layer 1 it meant an interesting animated border effect was created. I really like the way this frames Layer 2 in a way that doesn't confine the movement of Layer 2.

First Edit and Feedback



I've added annotations to the video of what parts I'm going to change in response to the comments I have received, and technical issues that have arisen from exporting the file from PremierPro and uploading to YouTube.
