Research: Uptown Funk---> Comparisons between the Official and Remake

My Version vs Original

Here is the final edited video that we had made:

And the one below is the same but with footage comparison to the original Uptown Funk

Disregarding the dancers and myself who is imitating Bruno Mars; the main difference would be the camerawork of the video. Lighting in the remake version is brighter than the official music video and also, we did not have a colour-list who colour corrects all of the video during post production which will take a longer time to finish. Furthermore, the shots of the remake were less accurate to original, although the types are the same but the length of zoom were different, some shots were more zoomed in e.g: the "Too Hot!" scene which pictured myself (Bruno) appearing closer and also blocking the dancers from the camera.  Lastly, the maximum resolution between the two videos are completely different. The remake has a max of 480p whilst the original has a high definition maximum of 1080p.

The cuts for the remake were too direct. It did not have a pan movement nor a sudden half second black frame. It was quick and precise, a given example would be the shoe and the high five cut; we achieved the correct cut motion for the second high five, however, the first was too quick that a hand swing wasn't present in the frame. For the shoe cut, the remake did not pan the camera slowly after the cut, the camera was still aiming in one direction for the remake rather than panning. Moreover, the alignment of shoes in the remake were close to each other and some weren't synchronised as well than others.

Overall, I was happy with the outcome and felt that I had achieved my goal in making this remake a parody.
