Why are we doing a remake?

Why are we doing a remake?

-Britney Spears: Baby one more time-

In order to improve our camera skills and better our knowledge of the structure and layout of a music video, we are doing a group remake of Britney Spears’ Hit me baby one more time.  We have all been given a section of the music video with which we have to produce a shot by shot remake ours was 0.21s – 0.36s . In order to do this we had to watch our section of the music video and create a story board and shot list for it so that we had a clear and detailed plan in order for us to film it and ensure that it matches up to the original music video. Carrying out the remake will help us in preparation for the making of our own music video as it shows us how music videos are structured in terms of the variety of shots and angle used throughout as well as what is included in a music video such as dancing and lip syncing.

The section we are remaking is 15 seconds long and contains scenes of Britney dancing and sing as well as close-ups of Britney just singing.  One problem we could face with this section of the remake is trying to make the dance routine as similar as possible ensuring that it matches with the beat and the rhythm in the song without making it too complicated. Another problem we could face is making sure when editing that the lip-syncing matches with the music and that words continue or join on accurately when a change of scene of angle occurs.  These issues will have an impact when it comes to creating our own music video as we will be conscious when planning shot and scene changes to be sure that we don’t make the editing process too complicated for ourselves.
