I will attach here the link to the instagram post I made and the final video.

I once again really enjoyed the process. I think I learnt a lot and while working in a new software had it's difficulties, I managed to figure it out. I definitely feel more prepared for my music video now. I will work on my editing skills so that they get better and better, but I honestly didn't think it would turn out so well. It's obviously not the best, but it is a good start and I am proud of it.

I think I managed to portray the message that I wanted well enough, and that will again help me a lot for my main task. This video wasn't planned a lot in advance, I filmed it and edited all in the course of 3 days and I think if you add up all the time I spent filming, editing and making the fonts, I probably spent 12+ hours on this project. I know that when I will do my final task, some of the process will go quicker because I know the software better now, but I definitely want to plan everything out in advance better than I did with this task, because I spent so long on a 50 second video, so I can only imagine how long it will take me to do a video for a whole song.

The only thing I would change about the video itself, is I would maybe place the lyrics at the top of the video instead of the bottom, because on Instagram it is initially covered by the @ and the caption. But there is a newer feature on Instagram where you can zoom in and it shows just the post with a clear display, and a lot of the lyric reels that inspired me also have the text at the bottom.

Over all, this was a great experience that will help a lot with my final music video task.
