authenticity commitment just fun!

Lip dub can be filmed by yourself or a whole group of people who move their lips to the lyrics of a song.

THINGS YOU SHOULD DECIDE UPON

(yet can’t fully predict)

the order of the actors

attributes of actors

movement and directions

based on the lyrics, you can decide when exactly actor appears look for some rythym, changes and accents

make it more fun by giving the actors some specific attributes instruments, toys, clothes

let the actors act freely and spontaneously but in some fixed framework

MOVEMENT - GENERAL COMPOSITION

introduction

development

start with introducing actors one by one

let actors appear again, put them together, try to make them appear from not so obvious directions

all together, dance, run, release the energy

MOVEMENT - HOW TO COMPOSE MOVES

group movements

change directions and speed

repeat the same moves to create some kind of a ow and rhythm

keep the movie dynamic, let actors follow the same direction and then change it, speed up or slow down, come towards camera or away

keep in mind general composition remember to create overall impression, not only single good moments

MOVEMENT - HOW TO SET CAMERA MOVEMENT simple

Camera movement doesn’t have to be very complicated.

You can just follow main character for the verse. It can follow

dynamic interesting steady

the same path in a loop.

But it can also make some “unexpected” transitions between actors.

It’s your choice but remember to keep camera steady and in focus, this will keep viewers engaged and make your video look more professional.
