Watch "Crazy Megamind"
I’m Ariel and I run a DIY amateur filmmaking blog…
which means that I offer tips, how-tos and product reviews concerning the world
of filmmaking. As a fan of student
filmmaking and cute goats, I felt obligated to help my friend out with a brief
review of her own home video of her crazy goat, Megamind.
The footage is adorable (obviously) and has the potential to
be viral but could use some clean up.
Here are 3 things that could be done to improve the video, as well as
some pointers for you to create your own cute goat video!
1) Consistency:
The video is entitled “Crazy Megamind” – I want to see footage of this
crazy goat being wild the whole time!
While the black and white footage and footage of Megamind being cute at
the fence is adorable, I want to see Megamind wrecking havoc! I suggest picking a theme or tone of the goat
being filmed and stick to it. A follow
up video entitled, “Megamind being cute and snuggly” featuring the black and
white footage/footage at the fence would be great.
2) Make the clips short and sweet. Editing is the
key!
3) Choose a song that best reflects the tone. I love the use of dramatic classical music
here to reflect Megamind’s insanity.
Great choice! So, when you’re
making your own cute viral animal video, keep music choice in mind. The Benny Hill theme song is a great choice
for silly videos of animals… not that I do that… often…
I hope this was somewhat insightful!! What any great viral cute animal video has
going for it is tone – so think greatly about the best ways to reflect that in
your film. I think this video could
benefit to have a title sequence and maybe an ending linking to the blog. Otherwise, good job! :)
Happy filmmaking/goat farming!
