Lip Syncing

Karina Sydney

Karina was a lot more confident and she was good at extenuating her mouth movements to make the lip singing look convincing. Her facial expressions match the lyrics and she used strong eye contact with the camera which makes her appear even more confident. We used a different frame in Karina's video in order to experiment with the aesthetics of our camera look. We like the overall look of both shots. Karina's frame size forces the audience to focus more upon the facial expressions of the artists whereas Sydneys frame size in the first video gives the audience an insight into the location of the shot. The reveal of the location would help reveal the role of the narrative which is something that we wanted to have in our video.
Looking back at my video, although I chose to do a different song to Sydney and Karina, it is clear that Karina and I are stronger in this task than Sydney. This is helpful because it gives us a good idea on who to use for the main parts of our video. Karina's confidence shows a lot of emotion so we have decided that she will be best to play the role of the 'artist' in our video. Sydney could improve by learning the words more thorough, giving her a clear distinction of when they start and end. Her confident could also be boosted maybe if the person filming her didn't watch for the first few trial runs, just so she can get the hang of what she is doing. It would be convenient if Sydney could improve in her lip syncing, just encase we need her to fill in for one of us when it comes to filming.
