Above is the animatic that I created for opening sequence (first 30 seconds) of 'Out of the Black' by Royal Blood. This project was effective in developing and demonstrating my ability to edit a music video in time to the beat as well as replicate existing music videos - this is important as I will look to draw inspiration from other music videos of the same genre when producing my final music video.
'Out of the Black' was a good song choice as the instrumentation used in the song allow for quick sharp editing through the use of jump cuts - there is no place for transitions in this type of song as, due to the nature of the song, jump cuts will allow quick cuts to different shots.
I also chose 'Out of the Black' as I like the animations in the song and felt it would be an interesting challenge in attempting to replicate these animations myself - I found this difficult and time-consuming however I am pleased with the overall aesthetic and I am also pleased with the editing skills I have demonstrated; my animatic does replicate the actual music video, an example of a shot replicated is the parental advisory logo as the opening shot.
