Planning and Improving

  

Here are the ideas that we had to improve upon our music video and how to change the beginning so that the meaning was clearer and to set dates to shoot by because of problems that would occur if we delayed. We also made a list of what we need to do and what shots we need to make our meaning clearer and to make the video more interesting.

This is the development of both our Album Cover and the Album Advertisement which we think are good starting points however there are parts that we would like to fix such as the shelves in the background as well as having all the band members on the album cover since our video is based upon the band themselves.

A video effect inspiration

In this tube chop is shows an effect that we would like to use showing going through a door and ending up somewhere else to really hammer in the fact that going through the doors transports them into another place. The effect will have a smaller wall between the places so that it can go with the faster paced editing of our piece. This piece of work inspired us with its affect and we thought that it would be really cool to use it in our music video.

UV

 

 

  Here is the production of the UV photoshoot in a small room with UV paint on the artists face. On the DSLR you can see the settings that were used to take the UV photographs that we used.

Album advertisment research

This set of Album covers was to give us a quick recap on what Indie rock album advertisments looked like, especially the ones that included the artists in, showing that they were either very dramatic or very artistic.

Editing

Editing after eight hours of cutting down all 25 tracks to include both narrative and band shots. This is the rough draft that was completed for the first deadline which shows that it was unfinished near the end 45 seconds however that has now been edited. The thing that we need to focus upon now is getting more band shots as most of our footage is based upon stills excluding one panning shot which is used for the drummer. At the moment i think that the speed of our current music video is correct but the footage needs to be cut to the beat and we possibly need more narrative as at some points it is confusing as it feels as if their needs to be more explanation of why, however we need to focus on getting the band shots as that will take longer to organise due to two of the band members not being in our group therefore our time schedules are not the same.
