Research - Favourite Previous Student Video (Blog 8)


Favourite Previous Student Video 

My favourite previous student video is by Group 4 (Emmanuel, Ariadna, Yuksel, Joshua). I feel like like the transitions used in this video are really effective. Examples of the transitions they used were: fades to white and then pan down from the white sky and when the camera pans to the left into the next scene. Also, i feel like the costumes were really effective. The costumes were very simple just black and white but it really had an effect as it played with the lyrics, 'the other side'.
