Music Video
FIght Night Mayweather
Program Used: Adobe Premiere Pro
This music video tested my editing skills more than any other project I have encountered. I picked out several videos from YouTube and edited piece by piece. Every single clip is an edit within the video. My goal was to show Mayweather, the boxer, succeed. I wanted show this through a music video, using the song track, Fight Night by Migos. Since this was a video for class at the University. I had to blur out some language. I could have easily looked up the clean version, but I thought it sounded very corny. Therefore, I made my own clean version. By doing this, I used the explicit version of the track and cut out all inappropriate words. I did not want it to be dead silent for every second there was an inappropriate word. Within the audio, I found another sound piece to go over the silent audio, going with the rhythm of the song. For every lyrical word, “hit him with the left, hit him with the right”, I slowed/speed up the motion of every punch to time it on que, example shown on 2:19-2:22. At the end of the video, I show how successful he is as a boxer. Within the last few seconds, I show that he is a champion, ending with a smile. Producing this film, showed me how much fun I can have while editing a music video. To me, this was not even work, but a hobby.
