Reversed video footage

As mentioned in the previous blog post we reversed some of our footage to fit with a section of speech in our song.The idea behind this was to show the target audience that Sam had died and that the rest of the music video was telling his story: what his life was like and how he died. This changed our music video quite a lot as we had other plans for clips that we wanted to use in this part of the song. However after listening to the song hundreds of times whilst editing we noticed the speech in this part of the song but it was mumbled and we all thought it sounded sort of 'backwards' which gave us the idea to reverse the clips. We also added an aged effect to the clips as we felt it helped to distinguish between this part of the music video and the rest of it.
