Rough Cut 2

Rough Cut 2

This is our second rough cut produced fo the video, we have added a different opening which is a compilation of footage we took for the beginning of the song. this split screen effect allows the audience to keep their attention focused on the song and video yet diverts their attention elsewhere on the screen. This isn't abrupt however as before the footage has been moved, a still image showing the beginning of the scene appears on screen so that the audience are ready for it and don't have to struggle to keep up with the track itself. Also we have added extra narrative shots and also have added different lengths and jump cuts in the track to make the video look more professional. We are yet to continue this however and will finish the video in the upcoming weeks.

27/11/2012 Lesson Update

Within this lesson, all members in the group have been working on the editing of our final media production and also some of the draft work for the advert we are yet to create. The work we have been doing was really productive and we managed to get a whole verse edited properly and an advert mocked up yet we are creating more variations of the advert so that we can produce the best quality one possible. As you can see in the pictures included we have been working quickly on the editing and also during the advert we have created different background textures to give it a gritty feel ad to help entice our target audience.

Digipak Draft

This is the draft cover for our digipak, this would be the back panel yet it shows us the colours for the front and the overall colour scheme for the Digipak itself. we have decided to use these colours to show a dusty, sandy texture to emphasise the meaning of the song and for a more literal meaning, the song name. as out digipak is mainly aimed at a fairly mainstream audience, we would ensure that the Digipak was able to be used within the genre and that it would fit with the rest of our music promo package

Rough Cut 1

Rough Cut 1 - The Road

This rough cut is the first part of editing we have used for this song. We are yet to add effects in the beginning of the song similar to that of a split screen effect. As this is only a small part of the song we ave successfully edited I think that some of the shots will need re-shooting and we will get that done as soon a possible. Also I feel that the song itself is balanced out quite well between performance and narrative shots yet I need to add some more varied shots i.e. Close ups, Long Shots, Different Angles, Different focuses.

Storyboard (Narrative Ideas)

This is the storyboard myself and Joe Tindale have developed for the narrative ideas we have come up with for the song, as we don't quite know what parts of the song we would include these ideas yet we will place this into our shooting schedule and animatic so that it becomes clearer to view the shots. these are subject to change within the editing and filming though so if we have any new ideas then we will include those instead.

Storyboard (Last Verse to the Finish)

This is the storyboard that myself and Joe Tindale have developed for the Last section of the song. it shows the different camera angles we have decided would suit this part of the song as it ends rather suddenly in the music. We have tried not to repeat ourselves as much compared to the other sections in terms of camera shots and angles yet some of the shots look rather familiar as this was unavoidable for us. we do however, know that whilst filming we may experiment with a variety of shots for the different people and parts within it. This will ensure that we have a variety of shots and that the video does not repeat itself as often as we can make it so.

Storyboard (Solo)

These are the shots for the guitar solo within the song developed by myself and Joe Tindale. As this is a part mainly focuses on the lead guitarist, we have decided to use a variety of angles within the song and  some interesting ones that are used professionally to make the video seem more authentic and the solo has more emphasis placed upon it. As we will be shooting this particular scene a few times, we would have a lot of shots to choose from so these are subject to change if they don't seem to flow together quite well.

Storyboard (Chorus 1, Verse 2 and Chorus 2)

This is the Storyboard that myself and Joe Tindale have worked on for the first chorus, second verse and second chorus. They show the different ideas we have for angles and some filters we could try and use within the video itself. They also show the different ideas we have in general for the performance and narrative side of the scenes. These ideas are subject to change if we encounter problems with the filming or the editing part of the project, or if we feel like they do not go together quite as well as previously thought.

Storyboard (Intro and Verse 1)

This is the storyboard myself and Joe Tindale created for our music video - specifically the Intro and First Verse. It show a visual representation of our ideas previously posted in a word document. It shows the shots we intend to use yet these are subject to change if they do not work out when we are filming. It shows the shots of various instruments, camera angles and the different people in view at a certain time in the song.
