We wanted to achieve this really cinematic opening and then straight away drop the introduction to the artist in a very fast pace. Louisa (the teacher) said that within the first few shots we had merged the establishing scene with the first verse. 
We will improve this by cutting just before the very first word and replacing the shot with a shot in south bank which is our location for the first verse.

It became apparent that one of the shots in the first verse wasn't very strong and really lowered the quality of the whole video when placed in sequence with the other base tracks. This base track was the one of Melia. standing over a balcony and the camera is at a low angle. The reason why this was considered a very bad shot was because our first few shots really brought the audience very close to the artist and almost invited them in. The balcony shot does the total opposite, the balcony acts as a barrier, rather pushing away the audience and the long distance also does the same. We will completely replace this shot with another base track filmed in southbank, this time thinking more about lighting and the distance the camera is from the artist.

Revisiting Southbank for re-filming 
Luisa also touched up no the fact that we had made a transition between a light and dark setting in the middle of the first verse. The transition appeared very discontinuous. We will completely delete all the night time shots filmed in southbank in the first verse. We will make time on today afternoon and revisit southbank, this time arriving early so we have enough time to film in the sun light. This time around we will focus on three features to greatly improve the quality of our footage. These are; Lighting, verity in shot types, and movement.

The last ting that the teacher gave us feedback on was the fact that some of our shots seem to be cutting slightly in-between words. This was because when Melia, would take a breath to say the next word it would appear that she is actually saying the next word. We will improve this by going back and fixing all the base tracks in sequence, cropping them in the correct positions even if they don't end up completely on the main beat of the song.
