Filming Photo's

Editing.

I am editing my video using iMovie on a MacBook. This software is easy to use and with previous practice I knew how to use the basic features. Ensuring I played the sound of the PA system out load during the performance made it a lot easier to sync the music and lyrics with the sound. I spend a lot of time going over the music video to ensure the syncing was correct.

Feedback.

This is some of the feedback I have received from the rest of my class. I will be using this feedback as well as the feedback from my teacher to improve my Digipak and Poster.

I uploaded three different versions of my digipak and have found that the majority of my class have chosen their favourite one and only given feedback on that. This has helped me decide which Digipak I will be improving.

Filming.

Just at the filming location in Hinckley doing my opening shot of the drums. I gave the band some time to practise through the whole first to warm up. Hopefully the day goes well...

Filming day.

Today is the day I will be filming my music video. I plan to get to the location in Hinckley for 11 o'clock giving me more than enough time to film all of my shots in 4 hours recording time which ends at 3. At 11 the whole band will be there ready to start filming so it will just take setting up the camera when I get there. Changing some bits of the mise en scene in each shot I can do as I go a lot however I want to keep each shot as authentic as possible and realist for a new band. I also plan to look through all of the clips tonight making sure they are all as I want them before I start editing. I will be taking a hard copy of my animatic to the recording.

Night before tomorrow.

Tomorrow I will be filming for my music video. I have my animatic and camera ready to take. This is all I will need as the instruments, amps e.t.c are already at the location in Hinckley. 

Feedback.

..This is the feedback I have received  from my teacher. I will be using this to improve and develope my digipak and poster before the deadline of November 9th.

Digipak Level 3    7 / 10

I have marked the one with primary colour letters and circles design.

Mr Smith likes the plain white one

Nice use of font and colour. Like image of band. Neat and clean feel (primary colours version).

EBI

Make THE all one word as there seems to be a space between t and h(primary colours version). Could poster link to digipak, as very different font and colours?

Legal jargon missing from all digi pacs. This MUST be included. Reduce size of font for website

If you’re going to have plane panels you MUST explain in your R&P why you made that decision

Poster  Level 2   6 /10

WWW

Neat, clean feel, minimalist as some bands in your genre are.

EBI

NME DON’T do star ratings, they do scores out of 10

Change font for stars to a more solid and plain design

Think about poster and CD continuity across products.

Reconsider font size for web and label, currently too large
