Feedback from first screening:

Today, was our firs screening for our music video. It was our first opportunity to put our whole music video to the whole, class alongside our Digipak and poster and get some detailed feedback on how the whole project is going.

We had to present these ideas in a way that we thought acceptable for our genre. I decided to make a quick presentation because it gave me the oppituinty to put what components I thought were the most successful first. For this reason I decided to present my Digipak and poster first as they I think are the most successful pieces and I feel that they are completed.

The feedback, was very constructive and has now given me an opportunity to work on my project and make it better. Some comments made that were commenting on the project being successful was, the Digipak and the poster. My teacher said they were perfect for the genre and that nothing needed changing.

 The only real thing that the teachers found needed the changes and the improvements was my actual video.They thought, my vide was quite repetitive and had far too many shots of her walking, they also thought that sometimes the performance was lacklustre and unconvincing and that I should try and make my video arty; because I'm good at that side of creating things. 

First I was dis-heartened by the feedback as expected, though once I thought about the feedback and reviewed the video myself i found that getting truthful feedback was the best idea as now all I can do is improve.The successful parts that the people who viewed my video made comments on where: the tones in the background, he look of the star, the locations, some of the camera work, the projections and the stop animation.

Journal

As a result of the feedback that I received yesterday, I have made plans to try and improve the video to the best of my ability so hat I know I am completely happy with the final outcome. I hope to try and make the scenes that we unconvincing, more convincing by upping the Mise-en-scene, photographing more up close, adding effects and asking the female playing Ruby Collins to be more animated and interested.

Because of the feedback that was made, I have also decided that I will also try and make my video more arty, to do this I will try and make the vide have a vintage effect, that is applied through Final Cut Pro. This will give my video more production value and hopefully increase the mark. 

As well as this I think that  it would be beneficial to have more projections with Ruby Collins in, to try and incorporate painting and get baby videos in the video too; to make it more cute.I have also decided that I will try and re-do the mirror scene by making t more bright so that the audience can actually see what is happening as, it is quite hard to actually tell what is happening and when.

Arty Plans:

Planning to make my video more arty: Some of the feedback from the first screening was that my music video wasn't quite arty enough. For this exact reason I have decided that I am going to be putting more acetate sequences/scenes into the video using projections. 

Though, this time I really would like the projections to involve Ruby Collins in them as it will be more interesting.I think this will allow me to have the projections onto Ruby Collins' face and involve her in the arty scenes.

 I also plan on having more lyrics projected in the video as that worked well in the first screening and was received well  , it will also help me break up the video more and make sure that the video is less boring. It means that I can also now try and get rid of some of the footage that was too repetitive.

Some of the things that I really would like to try and project onto Ruby Collins face include flowers, a projection of her as a child and possibly a cup and record player. I will put these files all onto word, print out and then photocopy onto acetate ready to project.I will blog as and when the process is over, illustrating what worked, what didn't work as planned etc.

Final Digi-pak Poster:

Making it clear what designs are my digi-pak poster:As Leanne and Sinead, have said from the feedback that my print advert was lovely and that both the digi-pak and poster together presented a consistent image. I thought it best to try and make the design clear and clean and because I am going to have more then one poster I thought it best t select which ones were he most successful and then put them all together so there is more consistency.

I really like the fact that. Have put them together as it nicer to see what is going on and what type of artist I have. Also because there is more than one poster it means that my star is presented as less one dimensional. I think that the designs and the effects that I have chosen were good choices as they all interlink through the layout and the only noticeable difference is the effect changed.

Journal Entry-

This is my most current Journal entry so far, since my last Journal entry it is clear that I have  made great progress with the coursework and that my project is finally shaping to be a coherent cross media platform campaign. I am finally quite happy of what I am starting to achieve for this project as, it s starting to look more like the work I intended to produce.

I have so far this week started to film new scenes so that my video didn't look so empty and actually had a variety of locations. Whilst at the woods this week, I started to consider the way that the natural light was reflecting so that I knew that the mise-en-scene was as good as I could have tried to. I also tried to make sure that the video had more lip-syncing. Hence, why the woods shooting was very heavy on the lip-syncing. Though, this time when filming I thought that it was essential to make sure that Ruby Collins was lip syncing to the best of her ability.

So, to try and help her lip sync to the best of her ability I purchased the song on an iPad and then took the iPad to the locations when we filmed so that, Ruby Collins would know when to sing and the actual timings of the song as well as the pauses in the song or the instrumentals. This would also make it much easier for me to edit as well, because I can hear the audio in the background of the footage.

I also got the chance to reshoot the bedroom singing which was poorly lit the first time around, though I think that the footage may be quite bland or uninteresting as Ruby Collins ( Lauren Madden) wasn't that emotive again/ Therefore, I may have to try and re-film again to make the footage more interesting. I plan to in the up and coming weeks look at making the video better, by introducing new scenes etc.

15/01/2014 Editing-

Editing-

I have started to edit the footage that I  filmed yesterday today, mainly because I had the time and it was a convenient time to actually start looking at the footage and also because I thought it best that I edited quit quickly after filming so that I knew from the  previous day what went where and why a particular thing needed to go there.

Today's editing, was quite problematic as the system kept crashing and I kept loosing the edited footage that I had worked on. After this happened several times, I began saving my work compulsively so that nothing got lost. This ending up in me saving too much. Then, I cam back to finish when the systems network was less occupied and this allowed me to spend more time on the video making it better.


So, I actually got the opportunity to sort out the mirror footage which was a great opportunity as I got to learn how to change the brightness to the footage making it easier to see Ruby Collins. I am as of yet to sort out the bedroom scene though, but this is my main priority for changing tomorrow. I also hope to try and possibly look at effects that could be added to the footage to give it more production value.

Filming 14/01/2014

Filming the mirror scene and the Bedroom singing-

Today, I decided that I was going to try and film all of the footage left that I had planned so that I knew that all of the footage that I need for my music video was complete and so that I knew that all I had to mainly complete was computer based. Today, I filmed for the mirror scene and the bedroom scene.

The mirror scene-

The mirror scenes purpose was to film Ruby Collins putting a lot of make-up one and then taking it off after realising that make-up is the root to solving problems and showing to the audience that its wrong to think that anyone's appearance defines them as a person. This linked to the visual; " you don't even have to try any longer, do what you want to" Which I think is basically saying that  you don't need to be defined by society and that you can control your own life with out worries. This sequence had many cuts, but because the lyrics were quite short, I didn't really need to keep on filming for along time.

The props that were used for this project: A circular mirror, quaint jars, equipment make-up, make up brushes, little cute pots, extension leads and all of the camera.

The Bedroom Singing:

This scene was actually quite problematic and resulted in a lot of arguing which was mainly down to me  having a perceived idea of perfect singing. As I am quite an animated character around my friends I had the idea that Ruby Collins' would be very animated and get into the lyrics more. Although, I understand some people are less confident and don't like singing in front of cameras, I hoped that Ruby Collins would be very animated though the person I chose for the project was not prepared to be as animated as she is quite timid and shy.

So to get the footage for this scene I had to negotiate in the middle and I think that for a shy timid person the footage was quite good and that I was probably being too much of a diva asking and then shouting at her. Poor management on my part.

Props used for the filming: flower patterned sheets, pillows, new outfit, fairy lights and fashion books (showing she is into fashion)

What is your next step?

The next step with all of the footage I have hot is to edit over the next few days, as there is a lot of footage that has to be changed and edited, I wont objectively say when this will be finished as there is a lot of footage that has to be edited. 

Finished Digi-pak Design-

Digi- pak finished design -

This is my current finished Digi-pak design; I have as you can see a conventional six panel structure accompanied by two CD designs too. I quite proud of this design, as the designs look well considered and because once I had put the six panel design and the CD designs on the white blank background, it actually looked really professional for a project curriculum based.

The successful parts about this digi-pak have to be the thought into the way that the consumer sees the product; by this I mean the consumer will see this product as a considered product that has been thought throughout the process of making. Including the bleak colour scheme in the inside three panels, the bright colours of the CD's that conflict the bleak colour scheme and the bright colours of the front two panels as they are fundamental to catch attention.

As well as the cropped technique applied using Photoshop tools to give the urban ground rooted feel about the design as it is assisted by the black and white colour scheme. This colour scheme works well with the design because even though the exposure and the colour changes, they are of a similar palette, so still follow on from another. The other success of this design has to be all of the digi-pak conventions have been considered including: the record labelling, the photos, copyright information, the inside leaflet design, the barcode, album name, artist name, promotional deals and social media contact detail.

I think I will only improve this design once the first screening is over, as I feel that my view is only my view so ultimately I am quite bias to making the design, so new ideas should come from the people in my class going through the same procedure instead of me.

Accoustic CD design-

Description of the design-

After completing my digi-pak quite some time ago, I thought that it was time for me to now think about how I could progress my design and make my digi-pak as good as it possibly could be. In order for me to make the overall design very coherent I thought that I should look at the small details in the digi-pak, this happened to bee the CD design. So, I decided that I would make two CD designs and then add them to my digi-pak. To make this design, from  my test shots that I completed quite a while ago, I selected an image of Ruby Collins (Lauren) posing then, to make the design more considered I played with brightness and exposure contrast controls so that the design looked well lit; as this is a convention of feel good jazz and pop.

What is successful about this  CD design?

I think that the positioning of the text as well as the font works really well on the design as it stands out and the colours are all of a similar palette meaning that it has a coherent colour scheme and style. I think the curvy writing also is quite conventional of this genre of music as it has quite a controlled refined nature about it. I also feel that refining the design even more would be quite difficult, not becaasue I think my designs are amazing, but because I think it will distract from the rooted vibe.

CD cover -



This is my main CD design, after looking at my digi-pak design I noticed that there are many changes that could be made to my digipak to try and make it more coherent. One of theses changes included trying to make sure every detail is completed; so I have started to make a CD for my digi-pak.

To make this design, I had to try and find an image that I thought represented the understated light heart nature of the music that accompanies the digi-pak and when looking I selected the above image. I thought because this image was so laid back and "cutesy" it could give of the impression that Ruby Collins' doesn't take herself extremely serious and that it's alright to be happy and calm in any situation.

Furthermore, I imagine that this album would be put on when someone need to feel better about themselves and feel at ease thus, I thought that it was a great idea to put a comical pose on. To link the cover to the "outdoors" theme that I have pitched since the begging, I made sure that the pose was in a tree and to assist the pose and the location I brightened up the image to make sure that the trees earthy greens stood out. It also meant that the font that I had used and the colour of the font stood out and was readable.

Poll on Digi-pak Covers -

Below is a poll that I created to see what design what the best design for my digi-pak cover, this was because I was confused as to what design was the most successful. Please vote below to cast your personal opinion, consider that this is a new artist.

Poll on Print Advert covers:

Calendar:

January Deadline: 

As the deadline is closely looming towards me, it is important that I create a calendar with provisional dates of completing certain things, this will help to ensure that my first screening of the music video is good and that I have good feedback that is constructive, as oppose to feedback that basically says that my video is poor.

Below I have made the provisional calendar dates and it is now up to me to make sure that everything is completed by these dates. I hope to keep to track with this as the last thing that I want is an uncompleted music video that makes me look and feel anxious when presenting. To ensure this calendar is followed, I will post blog post on my blog routinely.

Next Location:

There are a few locations that will need planning for the future, as they will appear in my music video. I am currently planning the next locations for my music video as they will need to be shot as soon as possible. So, far i have three locations in mind and that will bring me up to a total of five major locations meaning my music video has quite a conventional amount of locations.

The first location that needs planning is the bedroom scene- I  plan to in this location just shoot Ruby Collins singing the whole of the song from many different angles. So, that throughout the music video i can drop in as many frames as possible of her signing the song and because the song is quite fast paced it means that I will need a lot of cuts throughout the video.

I want the location to have fairy lights on the wall, a neural pattern on the wall so that nothing distracts from the artist and nothing seems to unrealistic. 

The second location that i am planning is the scene which Ruby Collins looks into the mirror and references the lyrics that "you don't even have to try any longer, do what you wanna, girl put your records on..." This will link to Goodwin and make the video more professional.

Though, when I am filming this scene I have to make sure that I don't shoot unprofessionally as it will loose the production value that i desire.

I have though, made sure that i can get the same mirror so this is a good thing as it means the image I have sourced from google is not an unrealistic photograph to the way that I want to shoot the film.

Editing 07/01/14 :

I have now started to edit the footage that I shot at Bostal Woods. The editing of this footage took me quite a while as i wanted an animation piece in my video. I was quite quick in saying that I wanted this footage at first, but I didn't realize how much time and effort it would take by cutting each image individually and then lining them up would take. I still think that this specific footage could be re-focussed so that the images at the front are not too long. As the pace changes. 

Apart from working that footage I did also have footage from this scene that was quite random, and although it may be irrelevant to the video it does have quite a good time to the video that is very interesting. 

Some of the footage included: Her kicking leafs, her running around and walking past a tree. These pieces of footage could be used as a montage in the video to fill it up and have more cuts.

As you can see from the last screen shot it shows that so far over half of the track that I have been working on has some sort of footage that can be used as imagery for the video which is a great sign as it means even with the other footage i am near to the end.

I just have to make sure now that all of the footage is of a good quality and that if certain pieces of footage dot work I can just replace them with more successful pieces of footage. Whilst doing this I need to make sure that I am referencing all of the Goodwin principles as well as making my video interesting enough that it gets multiple views.

As that is the primary purpose of creating a video. I plan to now try when i edit the video to make sure that there are no techniques I could use to make the video more effective and entertaining.

Refocussing the deign of my digi-apk:

 
Making modifications to my digi-pak design

I have made the digi-pak more coherent by changing the first inside to the drawing of Ruby Collins as before the drawing was on the back cover. I am quite happy with the way that these designs have turned out as they look really effective and the colour scheme is far more smooth and has a  transition from each panel. As the black and the white designs ties it all together. This is especially clear because there is black on every panel as well as light tones too.

To make my digi-pak look more successful I need to consider small details such as putting a black strip in the inside panels as well as possibly considering other components to the digi-pak that will enhance the overall feel of the video and make it more believable in the music industry. I think if I am going to do this I should possibly try and create designs for both the CD's chowing what designs would be expected on both of them.

Overall, though I am really happy with the way that the digi-pak is looking so far as I think that I have all the conventions possible: ranging from the barcode, the social network links, the record label, title and spine to the promotional stickers. So on that frontier nothing can be added. I also think that I have lovely photos that have all been taken by me and edited by me unlike some other groups.

I will make the changes necessary to make this design more professional, though the foundations are very much there. Please watch my blog to see continuous visual developments.

Re-working my front cover design of my digi-pak:

Today, I felt after show my digi-pak front cover that it could be improved to get a better mark.

I showed my teacher the provisional design, that I was working on and she said that the design was good and inventive, yet she doesn't think that any new artist starting out in the music industry would not have a picture of the artists face on the front cover.

After receiving this constructive criticism I thought that now was my opportunity to make the changes to make the design better. So I switched back the design of the drawing, played around with the tones to get a consistent design and changed the composition. I now think that the design is as coherent as it possibly can be, for the front cover.

Though, to make sure this is clear I will hand out a survey to people asking which design they think is better out of the location shot and the drawing of the artist. I will blog the feedback and make changes where are necessary so that the design is the best it can be. I will also ask both my teachers which design that they think is best and document the feedback that they have on the designs and once again make changes where I think that they will be needed.

Print advert - applying new effects:

 I have tried many different effects to the whole digipak print advert. This was to see what effect was the most desired. It also gave me the opportunity to see if the current design is limited or not.

I used an application to change the effect on the print advert. The process was quite quick, yet I did so many designs that I had to keep deleting the bad ones and then re-make. I have shortlisted, my personal favourites and put them into a video above. This is so that I can see what designs I have and see whether I like them. I'm relatively happy with the amount of designs that I have made as it gives me the chance to see if the design can be bettered. 

I will from this video now shortlist my personal favourites and then create an online poll, so that anyone that visits my blog can vote on their favourite design. I will include the original as one of the options and three of my personal favourite designs. This way they can compare the original design to the new ones. Usually, I have an opinion on which design is my favourite, but out of theses designs I am unsure, so whatever the outcome, I will use the publics decision.

To make the above video, I used I movie on my iPad and then uploaded all the images and then, exported the video to YouTube so that you could see my visual documentation of the new outcomes. I think this is a successful media platform to showcase these designs as, on a blog post they would be never ending. It's also an easy way to compare and contrast from each of the designs, as they are continuous.

Bostal Woods Footage

 

Today, I started filming for my second location, which was Bostal woods. As usual the action had planned footage to be shot for, so I knew what sequence had to be shot for today, but because this footage was so small I thought that it would be best If I try and films some sequences that could be used in the music video if the other footage is not so good. I found that this was a good idea from the Greenwich park footage thus meaning that it could've a

good idea again. 

Today's filming was fun as usual, and a lot of the footage was shot, meaning it was successful. I do though feel that because of the cold weather the opportunity to film certain sequences I had planned for became tire some and that some of the sequences I could have done as extra people's were missed. Though, this is not a problem as a second shoot can be easily arranged.

 

I think that the most successful part of filming today had to be that I got to do make an animatic, that I hope will be used in the music video. I decided to do an animatic because I think that successful music videos are dynamic and use a variety of filming skills to make the video more interesting. To make sure that this animatic works well I will when Im back at school upload the images and then add the footage to the video and see if it works with the video.

 

I think the one thing that I didn't do enough of today had to be lip syncing, as there wasn't much lip syncing completed. Though, I feel that with the next lot of filming this will be corrected; though this is on my checklist for completing.

Journal Post

I just wanted to add a journal post to say what I have currently worked on in connection with my Music video as well as what I plan to do in the upcoming week.

I have so far as you can see from my blog made big changes to my Digi pak and my print advert and these changes I think we're completely necessary as they have made my designs look more professional. Therefore, I will get a better mark. I think the changes to the design were also effective in showing that the artist was less about her image, it has also made my artist have stronger routes with urban Jazz as the colours are more organic.

I hope to in the next upcoming week try and make some more drastic change to the project, by making both my Digi pak and my print advert even more sophisticated by playing with effects on the overall designs. This will help me to see if the colours are effective. From this I plan to try and do an online poll to see what colours are the most liked. This gives me the chance to source audience feedback from a range of people that visit my blog as well as have a design that is less controlled by just my own opinion.

I also plan to try and get all of the second location footage onto my Final Cut Pro design, so I know what to do next. It will also give me the opportunity to retake footage if needed. I think that I also need to try and make a clear calendar that will detail some self set deadlines. This is essential as I know that the deadline for the first shoot is close looming and I don't want to have to make lots of changes to my music video after that screening.

Changes to the cross media designs:

Cross Media Changes:

So far after having completed both the prelim army designs of my digipak and my print advert, I have made many changes to try and increase the production value of the prices. I think these changes have been extremely important as they have made the campaign more cohesive and successful. First of all, I have changed the front cover to one of the location shots I took from Greenwich park, I did this because it shows continuity of the locations and because the effect that I tried out on this was more imaginative.

I'm not completely sure of this becoming the front cover yet though, because its quite irregular to see on any new artists front cover of their digipak, a location instead of their appearance. I will though think about what I could do instead. Clearly, because I made this change my print advert had to be updated so that the front cover appeared on the adverts for product familiarity.

I think that the design template that I have used with the blocks and changing of colours and saturation s is very effective and far more intriguing then a single photo thus, why I felt the need to use this effect several times on the digipak. To improve what I have currently completed, I think I need to ensure the digi-pak is perfect and no more changes are needed and then look at keeping the overall design of the digipak, but making moderations to it where needed.

Changes to Digipak:

As you can see I have started to make multiple changes to my digipak design and this is because I want the design to be more effective and look more professional. I feel like the previous design was far more ineffective at showing what the artist was about and had quite a low production value because everything was less considered. This was especially clear through the placement of images and the minimal changes to the images that cold have be reworked on Photoshop.

After realising that my previous design was indifferent to any school project, I thought now was the time to make the design far more effective and give it more credibility. To do this I decided to play around with all of the possible effects that were on offer on Photoshop. As a result of playing around with all of these effects I found a very effective design and this happened to be cutting each image into cubes and then with each individual cube colouring it with a different saturation, effect or brightness. I think that this worked really well as I could control the connotations of the image. As if the image was bright and colourful with a pink saturation, it would have connoted the brand was for girls. I used black and white, brightness and changed the opacity to give a natural and organic effect to the images that I used.

I think that this design is very effective and far more interesting to look at them the original design which is great as it has more of a professional appeal. Though, I think that the overall design of my digi-pak does still need to be considered more and looked at, in terms of layout, colours etc. I will look at these desired changes and make them within the upcoming week. (This will be documented in my next journal post).

Location 2 Planned:

 

Above is the location planned for today  showing that I have considered the location and thought about what is to happen when i get there. I have considered the dates and the timings of everything and foreseen all of the risks that might occur, any controllable variables that can be prevented have been considered and i hope that everything goes okay. I have also planned all the date of reviewing the filming and editing. I think I should do this quickly after filming so the footage is still in my head and so time for re-filming is available.

Print Advert conventions

Conventions of a Print Advert- Above I have created a mind-map as a check-list for my print advert; so that I can make sure that every convention is being followed and adhered to.

Progressing digi-pak:

I have as you can see from the above really progressed the design of my digi-pak and made it far more professional, obviously though there are far more things that have it be considered and completed, but I think the overall impact is far greater with the changes.

As you can see I have put an image of the flowers on, change the background design, added swirls, a self taken image, a tree taken from the woods and moved some of the font. I think that this gives the design the more sophisticated layout I desired. I also think now the colour palette is more coherent throughout as it blends well. 

To improve the design more it think that I need to make the cd's far more complex and nicer to look at, get rid of the green on the tree, move the font on the Cd's, add another diagonal swirl opposite the preexisting one, make the sticker look more professional and removable, carbon print the old record player and play around with the colours and the contrasts of the opening this panel. I could also play around with the contrast on the front panel.

Progressing Print Advert:

I have as you can see made a lot of alterations to the print advert and this was to try and make the design more professional and nicer to look at. 

The main changes that I made were changing the background, positioning of certain layers, adding writing etc. I think that all these changes were necessary to make the design more professional and coherent to the artist. The most successful alteration has to be the background as it is far more easier to look at, and more interesting. I think that prior to having the crumbled paper and the swirls the design was less likely to look as if it would be an existing product in the music industry. I love the continuous colour scheme.

To improve the design I think that I should possibly try and add some more layers and just look at what conventions of the print advert are missing. Once I have looked at all the conventions of the print advert I should add the ones missing and add them.  The only conventions though that I know of and think should be on the design are already there though.      

Evaluating Current progress with digi-pak:

Above I have made a video that evaluates my current progress with Sinead's unit. I think that everything has been mentioned. The video has a question answer format and because I was working by myself for this unit I got Megan Meade to ask me the questions that I had written for her. This is evidence of me documenting what is happening and showing how I will progress.

Watercolours onto the Carbon Prints

I decided that I would today try and add colour to the prints and this was to see if they were more successful with the colours on the print. I thought that this would look really nice, and be effective for the print as it is quite eye catching and would ultimately introduce colour.

The process of introducing the colour was not hard at all, as all I had to do was use the outline as a template and then just apply the colour using a brush. I think this was a successful technique as any other technique would have resulted in the watercolour spilling thus, making it lack that sense of sophistication that is needed, for an existing product in the media eye.

I think that it is successful to an extent as it is far more visually attractive and nicer to look at, but I think that in the future I should possibly move away from this route as the simple feel of the drawing is what makes it stand out. Meaning that when introducing the colour it becomes far more complex and looses that once organic vibe that it had.

Therefore, I think that I will avoid using the colour and stick with the original templates as they were far more interesting to look at and fit into the overall feel of my artist. I will know just in case, carry out some research asking people what they think of each idea and this is because it will mean that my decision is less bias.

Chat With Sinead

http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCImtSt0Lfj9NyEov97XsNA

unfortunately the video is not linking to blogger, though it is available  on my YouTube channel down the bottom as one of the earlier videos. Sorry for the confusion, it seems to b the only way I can share the video.

As, you can see from the video both me and Sinead discussed how the project is currently going, Sinead thinks that my current progress with both my digi-pak and poster is good and that I am meeting the deadlines very well. Sinead thinks that my ideas and style is coherent and that all I need to work on is making the small rough edges smoother such as refining small details such as the spine. We both agreed that the design will only become the best that it can through experiment so thought, that it would be beneficial if I carry on playing with tools in Photoshop. Sinead, also suggested that I should possibly even try and make the digi-pak using a real case, though this is completely up to me and is not essential, she thought that this may make my product seem more realistic though, no marks are gained from the process of making. I am very happy that me and Sinead had this chat as it has reinforced that I have put enough time into the project and that I am so far doing a good job.
