Last editing update and final music video

Although I was happy with my music video already - I decided that I wanted to see if I could improve it even further with the feedback on small details from my media studies teacher. A form of audience feedback.


Minor improvements I have made here include removing a clip of footage at 1:36-7 and replacing it with a longer door-peep-hole shot. Before, there was another cut back to the very quick bathroom scene - but it didn't contribute much and instead seemed to make the quick cutting a little too repetitive and uncomfortable. 

The second change I made was replacing footage of the actress walking up a hill at 2:39, with more still footage of a close-up on the actress' face. Following the climax of the argument between her and the male character, I was advised that people might want to see more of her emotion and less of her just walking. I therefore used a close-up shot so that you can relate to how drained she feels through her expression, which combines with the skeleton make-up to a great effect. 


The final change I made was uploading my video in 720p HD and this time without letterbox bezels on all sides of the video.
