Lip Syncing Exercise

Before we continue with the production of our music video, we completed a lip syncing task which enabled us to gain skills in the following:

• Confidence when performing in front of the camera
• Performance skills which allowed the singing to look realistic and believable
• To be confident with the words and timing of the song which we will be performing
• Using a range of long, mid and close-up shots

After filming, we used the software Final Cut Express to edit and create a finished product to show for our lip syncing task. Final Cut Express will be the program we shall use to edit our final video, through this task we gained skills and knowledge about this software for example:

• How to put in fades and transitions
• Editing on the beat
• Placing text over the video
• Cutting clips of film
• Syncing the video with the music
• How to import video from the camera to the program

All of what we gained from this task we can use when producing our final production.

This is our lip syncing task, we performed the Glee cover of 'Don't Stop Believing', as it is a fun, fast tempo song which allowed us to succeed and achieve skills in this process. Enjoy!
