Lip Syncing - Dizzee Rascal ''Dance Wiv Me''



This is my lipsync video for Dance wiv me

LipSync Exersice

For more practice with Lipsyncing we were given a song and told to go out and shoot our own music video for all of us to edit. The song we were given was Dizzee Rascal ''Dance Wiv Me''.

We had a few problems while shooting this, the main problem was our camera wouldn't record after we had done the first 2 sections, so we compromised and used our laptops webcam to record the rest of what we needed, it ended up being better then our other performances and i used that footage as the main part of our video.

I edited the footage in the same way we were told to do it for the ''You Wanna What'', video, that made it a lot easier to edit.



We were given feedback, they said the framing of our shots were good, especially for the shot with the laptop, the class said we were all in the frame alright.

they also said our dancing in the intro worked well even though i didn't think it was very good.

Although they said our camera was a bit static and needed more movement, even though the shots were quite varied, but to many mid shots.

"You wanna what" Lip Syncing Exercise

For our music video project we had to sync up the lip movements for ''You Wanna What", music video using footage from a music video filmed a few years ago.

It was the first time i have properly tried to sync up music, at first i found it quite challenging to find the exect point to line it up with, but after a few failed attempts i got it synced up

First you had to put all the video's in and cut them until you can hear the music starting in the background. you then choose a significant point in the song to create a marker.
You then had to do the same with the song. trying to find the same part and mar kit up, after this you placed the two markers together to see if the lips fitted with the song.
