Speedy Gonzales

Whilst editing my mini music video for "Poet", I have decided that I am going to experiment with the speed of different clips which is something I have never done before. Unlike my AS video, I have freedom to play around with different editing techniques and I am enjoying doing so. 

Below, you will see the "Inspector Window" that appears on iMovie whenever you want to edit a clip, and the speed of the video is currently at "100%" meaning it is the normal speed of when it was captured:


I have slowed down the clip now, and you can see that the speed of the video has now decreased to "80%":


I believe that changing the speed of different clips at different points in the song will be a highly effective technique to help create an ambience for the audience as they watch my video. The song itself changes from being quite slow paced to a moderately quick beat, and by changing the speed of the clips to fit the song's speed I hope to grab the audience's attention as they will (hopefully) be subconsciously drawn to the narrative as it will match the song's mood/lyrics. 

So far so good!
