Blog Reflection - Week 10

This week my partner and I finalised all of our pre-production work. We managed to finish it to a quality that we were both quite fond of.


The digipak and magazine advertisement flatplans were the last pieces that we had left to do. This took quite a long time as we aimed for them to be of the quality that we initially wanted. We tried to include the conventions that we previously studied and incorporate them in our designs as we aimed for them to be as realistic as possible.



Also, my partner and I recorded a full scene for our music video. We came up with a new location that can be seen in the location recci; it is in the corner of a music studio, where we used the sound proof material as a backdrop for our performer. We believe that this would be a great way to have a performance section in an area that not many people will use as it is not a common area that we have seen. Most of the time we have found green screens (due to their flexibility) and although we are using this, we have added this extra scene as it presents an even greater look to it that many may not have.



Overall this week has been good as we have finally closed the door on pre production and have already gotten to a good start on our actual production.



Next week we plan on shooting the entire green screen scene as well as the photoshoot, which can hopefully speed up the time we have in production, meaning we can focus more on the pre production stage of editing.

Magazine Flatplan

In order to promote our artist's new album, my partner and I have created a magazine advertisement so that consumers of the magazine that this poster is inside can look at it. This will be great as visuals are very important in magazines as people tend to view them for the aesthetic culture of it. We have tried to have our design as quite eye catching in terms of what the audience can denote from it. This will allow our audience to see it in a more attractive light, and potentially be more fond of the product as it has a pleasing visual.


Digipak Flatplan

A digipak flatplan was made so that my partner and I had an idea for our initial plan. We intend to go on to a photoshoot with our artist so that we can take plenty of different photographs to choose from. This may result in us deciding that another route would be better, but as for now we will be sticking to our current plan until we find something we prefer. This flatplan can be seen below, and you may notice our use of repetitive colours with purple (royal representation), red (intimate representation) and black (smart representation). These all compile to create a particularly outstanding portrayal of our artist as it makes her seem sophisticated, feminine and powerful. Also, the stances that she has are quite strong in themselves as she is either standing upright (like a sophisticated person would) or looking away from the audience (something else has captured her attention - dominant). We have chosen this route as it is something that creates a personality, and this is the exact personality that we aim to achieve. The digipak flatplan can be seen below:

Blog Reflection - Week 9

This week, on the blog, not a lot had been posted. We managed to complete our location recci after checking out our locations. This allowed us to know what places we could use and we could present it to anybody that viewed it, which is useful for future references. We went to many different parks such as St. Chad's, Goodmayes, South Park and more, as well as cinemas in both Romford and Ilford. This gave us a variety of choices, enabling us to pick the perfect location.


Unfortunately we were unable to film scenes as our actors were attached to other commitments such as their own school work as well as being too far at certain points of the week.



Overall this week was decent as we got to understand what our locations were and we were aware of more than we were previously. But in terms of actual filming, this week was not so good. From this we have learnt to organise in a better fashion as different people have certain commitments that they cannot drop at the last minute, so we need to focus on being quicker to organise filming sessions.
