In our group we discussed who would be stronger in the roles of the main cameraman and the editor. We came to the conclusion that Tamsin would be in charge of most of the filming, because she is a photography student and understands the camera functions better than I do.
So that meant I became in charge of editing. I was happy to do this, because I thought of the initial idea, and was able to be the perfectionist I am to edit the clips to make the it the music video I wanted it to be.
As the editor, I have had to look carefully at Andrew Goodwin's theory about music videos, which includes editing on the beat, making a clear narrative, and making sure there is a star image throughout the video. We have successfully done this by having our actor as the singer and the protagonist, so it is very clear who he is, and the audience will be able to recognise him.
