If this was the only way I could have done this part of the music video then I would have made it work, but seeing as after the holiday break we will be able to re-film it I thought it was best to just wait after all these attempts to try and make it perfect.
There were many problems to the way I did it and many reasons to why it failed but over ruling factor was that I was filming in my house and not s studio. This on its own caused problems such as height difficulties, lighting difficulties, framing difficulties and more.
Most of the problems evolved from the fact that there was little space and this meant that when I was supposedly walking everything would look wrong in the editing stage. I tried just standing on the spot and walking and then when it came to editing just using the ken burns tool would make me move. However that idea went straight into to bin as when I looked at what I had recorded my feet didn't look at all like there were walking forwards and it just all looked wrong. Then after this hinderance I thought it would be best to try and re-evaluate the situation and see if I actually did have to walk. I ended up just recording myself standing and looking around etc. so then when it came to editing what I thought of doing was placing myself on top of a cloud and the cloud would move around with me on it through the dream world. This seemed like a brilliant idea at first but it just involved way too much technical editing such as motion tracking of two objects, and then that meant using multiple pieces of software, and for something that looked only half-decent it wasn't worth it.
After all of this trauma I decided that I'd just wait until I could use the space of a studio to film the green screen part of the video. Let's just see how it goes.
