Film Planning 5

This will be the last time I record the girls. I am getting them all together for the dancing shots and I have had to film in my garage again because of the rain so I am limited to space. This was the only day I could do it as this is when they were all free. I will be getting shots of them together with close ups and mid shots of them singing and dancing. I will also do individual shots as the garage isn't big enough to fit them all into the camera at once so individual shots will have to be done for some, so these are a few things I have to change throughout the course of making my music video.
Changes made throughout filming:

• Days of filming have had to be moved around as one of the girls cant make a certain day because of work or college.
• Locations having to change because of the weather and not being able to go outside.
• Shots being changed because the area im in isn't big enough for long shots so had to work around it and do mid shots or individual shots to get the whole scene in.
• One of the girls forgetting the right clothes I want them to wear so having to work with the clothing we have, but worked out well in the end.

After putting the video together I will have to see if there are any shots i need to redo to get a better mark as the quality isn't as great or im missing shots out that I need or need extra shot to fill in some of the time gaps in the music video.

More Shots For Digipack And Advert

Here I have more photographs I have taken for my digipack and advert. These photos are mainly for my digipack at the minute as there using the same background throughout it so it all connects together.

 This will be the photograph for the middle panels where the CD will go and where ill be listing all the songs that'll be found on the album. Ill be doing this as its simple and not to busy to the eye so the target market can understand the information on the page.

 I like this photograph as she's posed and it works well with the other pictures iv taken of each girl. She is also not looking directly at the camera she looks like she's looking into the distance and I think this is a better effect then just looking straight into the camera. This would be used on the advert as its portrait and the one underneath would be used for the digipack as its landscape.

 I like the pose of this photograph as its different and I made her look into the camera to get a different feel from the photograph.

 I like this pose as its natural and she's also looking into the distance giving it a better look instead of being posed. This would be a good photo for my digipack and would work well with the theme.

 I like this photograph of Becky as its posed and the way she's looking into the distance looks stylish and would work on my digipack. Also the one below would work well on the advert but I have a range of ideas I can use for each products im making.

 I did a few different posed shots for Becky like I did for the other two and I like this photograph as its natural but also has a good style to it which fits with the genre im doing,

 I don't like this one as much as the others as it looks a bit awkward but I might still use it as its still a good photograph and I can uses each other them no matter what as their all connected by the backgrounds.

 These are some extra photos I took of Beth just to get more of a feel of the pose's I liked the best but they weren't the best quality so they might not be used on my digipack or advert. The middle photo stands out the most to me and it could be used on my advert as I like the lighting of the photograph.

Film Planning 4

Today I will get a few group shots done that need to be filmed inside in my garage where they aren't moving around to much and finish off Alex's and Becky's recording too. Each girl is dressed in something different from the other shots and I have put them together with Alex in the middle because she is blonde and the other two are brown and are also wearing leather jackets. I will change them around when doing other shots as in the band they are all equal so they'll all get their place in the lime light. I will also get some extra shots of the girl painting and dancing for shots that will be in my music video as they wont be singing all the time. I am using the camera from the school again and the tripod as I have brought them both home as I made sure all the girls were free to do it tonight.

Planning 3

Today I will be meeting up with Becky and Alex to film their individual shots as I have borrowed the camera and tripod from the school library and have took it home over the holiday as I want to use my time wisely. Becky will be wearing her green baggy to with leggings and leather jacket. I will be shooting Becky's shots on the green behind my house on the brick wall as this will be her background for her character. I will try get get half of her shots done today so I only have to meet up with her one more time. Alex will be wearing leopard print leggings and a black vest top as this is a bit different to the other two and stands out. I will be shooting Alex's shots in my garage on the background I have paint for her as I want each member from the band to have a different background so viewers will remember who they are when watching the music video over. Im hoping to also get half of Alex's shots done today, leaving me less shots to do next time I see them both.

Track List

This is the playlist I took my inspiration from to make my playlist for my digipack. This is Demi Lovato album 'Here we go again'. I took some of the songs from her playlist as they work well with the image im going for and relate to the girls im using. I took the song im using for my music video from the band 'Little Mix' as its a new song that has be realized in the charts and it got my attention because of the style of the video as its up beat and happy with simple but fun out look on the music video. They are a new band and thought it would be a good song as everyone would of heard it before and be excited to be part of making my music video.

Shots For Digipack And Advert

These are the shots iv taken of Beth. She is one of the members of the band and this is the background I have been using for her throughout the music video. This are a few photographs that I might include in the making of my digipack and advert. I will do some more shots that best fit the style I want as after taking these shots iv relised I want each girl to be on the same background for my digipack as this will stand out and work well together.

I like this photograph inparticulary because it is a posed position and looks quite fashionble. It is also portrait which would fit well with the advert im doing as im using all three members with different background so I think this style photograph would work well and also fits with the genre of the music video.

I also like this one as the distance of the photograph stands out as you can see more in the photo but you cant see her features as well because it isnt as close. It is a landscape photo which might not fit into the style im going for on my advert.

I also like these two as there the same shot but ones landscape and ones portrait. I think the portriat one works better and would fit my advert better than the top one. The colour is also brighter on the bottom photo which works well with the style im going for.

These are a few shots iv taken of Alex, who is one of the members of the band. Here I will show a few photographs I have taken of Alex for the digipack and advert. I will take more if needed as these are just a few test shots to see what looks the best.

This pose Alex is doing I quite like I think it would look good in the digipack as its lanscape so it couldnt really be used on the advert as it would need to be portriat.

 I like the way Alex is standing in this photo and like the pose she is doing. It is a normal boring standing still photograph she is giving movement and I think this could work well in my digipack. Also the one below could be used on my advert as its portriat and I think it would work well with the style im going for.

These are the shots I have taken so far for the front cover of my digipack. I will be taking more if these dont keep to the standards I want for my front cover as I want it to be bright and best describe the band.

 I like this one as you can see their facial expression very well and shows how close they are. It would work well on the front cover but maybe there isnt another movement for what I want.

 This photgraph is different as Beth is shown in front of the other two members of the band and I think it works well as it isnt usually used on album covers so its different to other artists. The only thing I would change is their facial expressions and some are posing their faces and Beth is smiling so they would all have to be doing the same thing.

This is my favourite photograph iv took so far of the band together as they are all posing with their bodies which makes the photo look more interesting and catches yours eyes. Also its a higher shot so you can see more of them.

Advert Feedback Analysis

I got quite a bit of feedback for this piece of work, but nothing to negative just improvements. The photograph I have chosen for this page works well with the genre im using for the music video but the only worry is will I be able to keep it up to this standard. I will try my best to get it to the best standard as possible to get the best grade I can so some elements will have to be included when thinking about how to make this happen. I will think about the sort of clothing I want my girls to wear that best shows their individual styles and what looks the most fashionable. I want the photos to look good quality so I will add effects if needed to give extra brightness to it.

I have took a few photos already and the idea I have of three individual shots of the girls and them putting them together could be a good idea but it will need a lot of work done to make sure it comes out right and looks professional. I have already took photos of two of my members with different background and I think they look quite fashionable but I might need to rethink the style im going for as it really needs to link back to my digipack style as the two products have to look similiar so the target market know who they are. I will use different outfits in the photographs and see what looks best so then I have more of a range to chose from.

To make sure the advert looks as professional and believable as possible I will have to add all the finishsing touches which includes extra text at the bottom of the page including their twitter account so viewers can follow them as well as their facebook and officle website address so everyone can access them. I will also have a record label and logo shown at the bottom of the page. I will experiment with the postitioning of the additional text, but for now I will stick to the font I have already used on the digipack and the size im thinking of using. I dont want the additional text to be to big as the main text, for example the names of the two new songs need to stand out compared to any other text on the page as this is the most important information.

I could also add the ratings from a magazaine which realtes to the target audience which could be Pop or heat magazine parhaps, I need to do some more research on this particular part. I do believe that the additional text could make the page look over crowded and take the main focus away from the page so I have to try and keep to a quite simiplictic approach. I will also show the data the album is out which is another big part of information that will be shown in a bigger font to the other text. All the extra information im adding to the advert will make it look more genuine which is one of the most difficult parts to create and make it believeable.

I will use the fonts I have chosen to use on the digipack on the advert as well as this will relate both of the products back to each other which will make it easy for the viewers to know whos album and advert their looking at. To improve the copy from above I will make sure the text is lined up together and looks neat and tidy on the page. I am happy with the text font and the sizes iv used but when adding the additional text I might have to make some of the text smaller just to be able to fit on to the page and keep it look neat. I like how iv positioned it but it could become bottom heavy once iv added the additional text. I will do experiments with where to put the text until I find the perfect position for it so the final design looks to the stand I want.
