I knew that this would be a difficult project. Video editing is a technical challenge and a daunting task for the uninitiated. The one thing this project has taught me that, while I love movies and video clips, I should stay as far away from the world of video editing. I have neither the patience nor aptitude to pull off a well edited video. I did not like how my video turned out. I was unable to do the things as I originally planned and had to rush things, especially the filming. Editing audio and manipulating photos were much more enjoyable than wrestling with video.
For the content, I had to change a lot of what I had planned due to technical issues with the equipment. I had planned for more people to help, but scheduling issues prevented all but one from coming. Most of the script I had written was useless and thus, I had to throw together a quick script for the two of us. The main point I was trying to get across was how the RIAA isn’t the victim it plays itself out to be and how the music industry is rife with excess (the music star scene). The overall message was that people need to support the artists, not the record company that sponsors them.
