Blog 17 - Rejected footage

I carefully reviewed my footage rejecting parts which were deemed to be unsuitable for inclusion in my music video. Outlined below are screenshots showing examples of rejected footage together with an explanation behind my decision.

• Insufficient lighting dims the shot resulting in poor quality thus making it hard to view.





• Excessive clutter in the background may distract the viewer from the main subject and focus.





• The shadows shown in this shot are too strong.






• Poor weather conditions - In this shot the sea reflects sun beams causing too much contrast.





• Some footage was rejected, despite being of adequate quality, because it failed to follow the narrative.
