REM Supernatural superserious video remix assignment for mas110, Macquarie university, department of Media, semester 2, 2008. Produced by Ellen Hardy and Emma Barnitt
Your opening montage is impressive! Like others have said, the dream-like quality of your video is enhanced by the rapid stills at the start, and the constant fades to white switching from city scenes to studio shots. it gives your video an overall clean and polished look... well done!
It's nice that you used a bit longer footages which don't make you dizzy as you watch. No need to use too many images to show nice editing and good sense and you showed it at your work.
White transitions throughout the clip are nice and consistant.
Great! I really like the white flash transtitions through-out the piece! The short photo cuts that appeared twice were great; created a good pace to the video and could've been even longer and appeared more often but I guess they were too time consuming. Citically, some shots were slightly too long and a little off beat/timing. Sometimes the colours didin't match up but these things only happened for some particular shots. All in all I really like it. Nice work!
The choppy use of still frames to emphasise the beat of the song at the beginning of the clip and around the 1:55 mark was very visually engaging and contrasted well the extended non-clip footage that followed from the last still in the first sequence. I also thought the longer sections of footage, particularly when the footage was synced up with the lyrics, towards the end of the video was a very effective wind down for the song.
Good effort! I can't help but feel that this whole video is like a dream sequence. I felt this in particular due to the repetitive use of the fade to white effect, which also slowed the pace of the clip down a bit. From 1:04 - 1:14, the same insignificant shot is kept on screen. From 1:22 - 1:29, we experience the same thing. Furthermore, from 2:06 - 2:11, we see nothing but a wall of books etc., and the guitarist cramped into the right side of the screen, making him seem insignificant.
