Piracy simulated project COMPLETE!

My 30 second piracy advert is finally finished! I am quite happy with how the final advert has turned out.

I began the editing by really playing with the audio, recording an ambient white noise track and cranking up the levels on this to distort the audio quality. I added a de-noiser and upped the threshold, turning the actual noise reduction UP so it resulted in a very up and down audio level throughout, (working to the dodgey sound archetype of pirate videos)

The most problematic part of my project I found was the actual filming! I wanted really low resolution footage to make the video seem as though it has actually been pirated, so this required me to film on my camera phone! I began by filming on my iphone but the camera quality of this phone is actually quite good, so I got out one of my old Nokias and shot the footage on that phone! This meant my actor had to learn his lines to say in one take, not a major issue due to the short nature of the clip but had the project been of a larger scale, then this could well have been a problem! I was originally going to include more facts and statistics at the end of the video, but i think the 75,000 jobs line works well against the fact that the dodgey dealer is talking about running his successful business!

I will post the video as soon as it is done uploading to youtube!
