What have you learned from your audience feedback?<strong>Audience Feedback.</strong><br /><br />To create our audience research we used an online survey called <span style="color:#ffff00;"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">surveymonkey</span>.com</span>, which you can create <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">questionnaires</span> and then get feedback through the use of graphs and people can comment on thier reasons why they chose certain ratings of the video, this is a more useful and interactive way of getting feedback.<br /><br />The overall impression was that there was a <span style="color:#ffff00;">resounding approval</span> of our music video and 100% agreed that it would encourage them to buy the album for both the music video and the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">digipak</span>.<br /><br />We then went into depth and asked if they could rate certain aspects of our video, e.g. Lighting, these are our results:<br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415807084221021682" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 212px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8HMrCpMFxlGEQO9BRE8F4KrNmkbaau81tRl7m_P1qJQKdlhxjK8Y1YTMUS3lIZQZVry_o616jJaK9AG3zno_jg64Q56U9s-3ojr2v5PRTLDVt9_8DdMJQle1Rf20OrqILCFfhNIQ6Og9w/s320/Graph.bmp" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><br />As you can see from these results all aspects were rated highly, some more then others, such as <span style="color:#ffff00;">location</span> which was rated the highest, which tells us that this was a strong point in our video and that <span style="color:#ffff00;">lighting</span> was one of the weaker aspects of our video.<br /><br /><br />We also asked there reasons, if they said they liked our video, there reasons for why they liked them, these are <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">some</span> of the reasons why (Click to Enlarge)<br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415805897202632146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 376px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 168px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWzq14zZGIGaX4XJkqEMbdQFUQHaSNOYWdZaQ-qE7djrJcN7M7qWVzuk9O7SrpY9T75i6kSpQX5Uo3IiLhsQ6cx8ICiadDnARiyKsM1kgWon2YIxWR_xv6AAdQKP0yxTuz49UHNIXRkHvQ/s320/Q1.bmp" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415806063161241762" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 134px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDhAO7iI4eAR6mFXxPhaaY2_eY_HIWDGBRUn8e7OQ9gSzmbFQTWW46cuokgaLZWwTNsrNBiRLtL4F_-yqWBq7pWX11rKrog9z6r2wtZxnhGnahBQKg54zE-m14M4WdJSHpWj3wddPcl7JY/s320/Q1.bmp" border="0" /></p><p>One of the main reasons why they liked our video was due to the narrative storyline, this was very important news for us as this was one of the most difficult parts we had to plan.

This website proved to be a very simple and easy to use site which suited all our needs to produce this music video. It acted as an e-portfolio which allowed us to comment on each others pieces of work and work together collaboratively as a group which benefited our coursework greatly as we were able to plan our construction without difficulty as the posts we made on the blog were read by one another and acknowledged.<br /> <br /><br /><FONT COLOR=yellow>Research stage – </FONT><br />In the research stage of our music video production, we used media technologies the most in all of our work. This was because we undertook a lot of research into the music industry which included such research projects such as <FONT COLOR=cyan>music video analysis</FONT> (where we analysed similar genre music videos) <FONT COLOR=cyan>technical analysis</FONT> (where we analysed the camera shot types, lighting, mise-en-scene and editing of similar genre music videos.) For these music videos <FONT COLOR=cyan>we used Youtube and simply embedded the video into the blog and commented accordingly</FONT>. This made the blog into what was almost a collection of music videos and ideas which we could frequently refer to throughout our project to remind ourselves of any ideas we had or for inspiration for new ideas.<br /> <FONT COLOR=cyan>Throughout the research stage of our music video production, we continually looked at similar music videos, digipak and magazine advertisement designs and styles which further helped us to keep focused on the task and remember what it was exactly we were constructing.</FONT><br /><br /><br /><br /><FONT COLOR=yellow>Planning stage –</FONT><br />In the planning stage, this was where we planned shoots, constructed the animatic and drew out storyboards. For each shoot we did, I posted on the blog details of ‘Planning Of Filming’ which consisted of specific details on where the locations were, what we were to film and any other details such as mise-en-scene and lighting. It was very helpful to comment on these planned film shoots as it saved time on the shoot because we could think ahead about any problems we may face so it gave us plenty of time to plan ahead.<br /><br /><br /><FONT COLOR=yellow>Construction stage –</FONT><br />In the construction stage, there was not a great deal of media technologies used on the blog as this stage was more focused on the actual filming of the music video. The only posts that were made were of the ‘Evaluation of Filming’ which took place after every shoot. In this evaluation of filming I evaluated on how well the shoots went and if there were any problems including how we overcame them. <br /><br /><br /><FONT COLOR=yellow>Evaluation stage -</FONT><br />The evaluation stage is where we posted our final versions of the music video, digipak and magazine advertisement which included comments on how they were produced.<br /><br /><br /><FONT COLOR=yellow>How we used Youtube -</FONT><br /><br />We used Youtube as the main media showcase site for our coursework. We collected our example music videos from Youtube and embedded them into our blog. We then submitted our final version of our finished music video onto Youtube.<br /><br /><br />To Conclude, I think that we used a good amount of media technologies such as embedded files, graphs, surveys, and our blog to show our work.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18148822258477002832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-90266018799300685742009-12-14T06:27:00.001-08:002009-12-15T04:18:30.359-08:00JB - Call Sheets Organisation<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsN7qS-W8f9vEGMaVOFY6UHMpbVLK4DMZ0zU9YN84TO1v4_-XXo8v9qaAGoY1wo0qW6tK3Qq8VRf3oMp0MOZPBhpAtR19W6GuU5oXyEk9CYZMTExULnfniMufLD18YT5MsmkIJLHajkwaX/s1600-h/Call+sheet.bmp"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 255px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsN7qS-W8f9vEGMaVOFY6UHMpbVLK4DMZ0zU9YN84TO1v4_-XXo8v9qaAGoY1wo0qW6tK3Qq8VRf3oMp0MOZPBhpAtR19W6GuU5oXyEk9CYZMTExULnfniMufLD18YT5MsmkIJLHajkwaX/s320/Call+sheet.bmp" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415098962465136962" /></a>Joehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03435757076379377077noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-2454164545196603112009-12-14T06:09:00.000-08:002009-12-17T06:48:53.891-08:00JB - 4.How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?<strong>Premiere Elements 3.0</strong><br />This is where we edited the footage we had captured, this is where <span style="color:#000000;">we</span> created some <span style="color:#ffff33;">post-production</span> effects for our videos we were not capable of doing on shoot.

How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?<FONT COLOR=yellow>Main product- Music video<br />Ancillary texts- Digipak and magazine advertisement</FONT><br /><br />Our artist Jamie T has a very specific and unique <FONT COLOR=cyan>‘star’ persona</FONT>. We have constructed three texts, the main product being the music video and the ancillary texts being the magazine advertisement and the digipak. We felt it was important for these texts to be similar and therefore be a good combination which represents our artist in the best possible way. This is shown clearly in our texts as certain images, and iconography is linked throughout the audience’s previous background knowledge of Jamie T and this additional information which is in the format of a music video and ancillary texts which promote the artist even further. <br /><br />Our artist Jamie T has a very specific and unique <FONT COLOR=cyan>‘star’ persona.</FONT><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwHLn3TscaAiGByP6CG5JmKkkcNUCPoSke_Zp1QUIcpvUUF-VILT8v2yPKE9acZkOgD1kAE1pmDKEKOD0VJ6Nmco14LBLb5SLSlkRkCQjyFng3IlD58gk72zc5x2mlbcZG1oIhaPbyVFfp/s1600-h/jamie+t.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwHLn3TscaAiGByP6CG5JmKkkcNUCPoSke_Zp1QUIcpvUUF-VILT8v2yPKE9acZkOgD1kAE1pmDKEKOD0VJ6Nmco14LBLb5SLSlkRkCQjyFng3IlD58gk72zc5x2mlbcZG1oIhaPbyVFfp/s320/jamie+t.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415413016156912658" /></a><br /><br />As you can see, Jamie T can be compared to our very own Jamie T (Group member Joe Bond)...<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhl3fGU_ZJD8ePTUNrhDehg2GxgBhovWBV2XDcRIoXVOAML0nq8WeTiCi4oIyLaksQ5_k8jRsY6okRYB8x4350TFFlojNct7PsFVIsLUL3iCwdVxWe4SVeVCXCi7hnPxIE98HAxRviLrpuv/s1600-h/jamie+t+comparison.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 143px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhl3fGU_ZJD8ePTUNrhDehg2GxgBhovWBV2XDcRIoXVOAML0nq8WeTiCi4oIyLaksQ5_k8jRsY6okRYB8x4350TFFlojNct7PsFVIsLUL3iCwdVxWe4SVeVCXCi7hnPxIE98HAxRviLrpuv/s320/jamie+t+comparison.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415414626908136882" /></a><br /><br /> <FONT COLOR=cyan>Dyer’s theory</FONT> of the 'star' and paradoxes are that he states that stars depend on a range of subsidiary media – magazines, TV, radio and the internet in order to construct a <FONT COLOR=cyan>‘brand’ image</FONT> for themselves which will essentially be marketed to their audiences. For example, to compare with other artists here is the artist The Streets. This is his album cover which is taken from the album ‘A Grand Don’t Come For Free’.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZfdq5ULRdEmQ9koZSb5itLRX2y9qXvOQep3c_sW9B61hJffLVR_xFFc_vj1JVhvsjU0gMFEqokUpdOWVdO1yZ1ApF2m0WR6Y506_7U0W3l-GYiCewE5emUhXbFlTZif9_K9PgB3VwnVpM/s1600-h/streets+album+cover+analysis.bmp"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 194px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZfdq5ULRdEmQ9koZSb5itLRX2y9qXvOQep3c_sW9B61hJffLVR_xFFc_vj1JVhvsjU0gMFEqokUpdOWVdO1yZ1ApF2m0WR6Y506_7U0W3l-GYiCewE5emUhXbFlTZif9_K9PgB3VwnVpM/s320/streets+album+cover+analysis.bmp" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415415298146539490" /></a><br /><br />As you can see this album cover is very aesthetically pleasing and does conform to Dyer’s theory. The image definitely promotes the artist’s unique style of being urban and slightly rebellious. Jamie T’s image is quite similar to The Streets as they are both trying to convey the fact that they are similar to the audience. However, this does comply with Dyer’s theory as the artist is present (by the way that the artist is portrayed to be similar to the audience) but also absent as the artist is still a ‘star’ and famous, which is not what the audience is so they essentially look up to the artist and they become iconic.<br /><br />Jamie T’s brand image is clearly shown in his music videos, magazine advertisements and digipaks . They all reinforce what he is all about in terms of his background and persona. He is seen as being a rebellious young man who is serious about his music but at the same time likes to enjoy himself. Dyer says that a ‘star’ is an image, not a real person which relates to his second paradox which is that the star must be simultaneously present and absent for the consumer. Jamie T is present as we used montage editing in our music video which shows us a glimpse of what he is about. The subsidiary media backs up and reinforces his meta narrative as his brand image is continued. In our digipak we have used an iconic shot of the london eye and the beer bottle/can which show his youth and rebellious personality. Dyer’s first paradox is about the ‘star’ being ordinary and extraordinary for the consumer, this is shown with Jamie T as the audience can relate to him by the way that he represents himself, but he is still somewhat absent as the audience can rarely have very much contact with him. The ordinary side keeps the audience appeal, we have produced a lo-fi video which creates a relationship between the artist and the audience, it gives them a para social intimacy which is why the audience has their favourite artists. Our narrative helps this as the audience can relate to our narrative because it is a love triangle which is a common theme in everyday life. The locations of the house and garden also help to portray our artist of being normal, just like everybody else, furthermore the costume is identifiable to the genre which shows what type of genre it is clearly.<br /><br />However, the music video can also be extra-ordinary as the performance based scenes break the fourth wall and are speaking to the audience in the first person mode of address. This is normally done in close up and lip synching is involved which creates the effect well. By using this first person mode of address Jamie T is showcasing his talent to the audience and is therefore a 'star'.<br /><br />For our ancillary texts, our brief was to produce a digipak and magazine advertisement which was to represent the artist and promote them. <br /><br />Our digipak is designed to be a four page digipak which kept the product simple to produce and construct which was good as we were looking to produce quite a simple digipak that kept to the conventions of our artists brand image and motifs. Here is our Jamie T ‘digipak:<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMOQgfxw1giamPL8tRarTnPSY9O2snZnh5qckVk-gAW9v8OarQqT9qg5FK0rHSanREBYppzcCHgPbd1VVMKomktiooWOarXHbtk1BgEazMXhFwhtSJdQUxQoMFSonVzgffMocljrQcjWc4/s1600-h/Digipack+NEW+CUT+1.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMOQgfxw1giamPL8tRarTnPSY9O2snZnh5qckVk-gAW9v8OarQqT9qg5FK0rHSanREBYppzcCHgPbd1VVMKomktiooWOarXHbtk1BgEazMXhFwhtSJdQUxQoMFSonVzgffMocljrQcjWc4/s320/Digipack+NEW+CUT+1.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415052808841969330" /></a><br /><br />As you can see, I have designed the digipak to represent Jamie T in the best possible way. I have tried to show this with the use of the ‘empty fridge’ idea which I came up with when thinking of themes for the digipak. The empty beer can connotes that Jamie T likes to have a drink which shows he likes to enjoy himself. When I constructed the front cover of the digipak, I wanted to use an urban font for the design which we got from cutting out letters from a newspaper and scanning them into the computer. The background image is of our artist Jamie T posing in front of the London eye. I have applied a slight blur to the background which puts more emphasis on the typography which should be identified first before the other subjects of the image. For the inside covers and back cover font I used alphabet fridge magnet letters which are easily identified. Each letter appears to look like a fridge magnet which further links the digipak pages together. The use of the empty fridge with alcoholic beverages inside it portrays Jamie T to be quite youthful and fun loving which is what his image is all about. <br />In past digipaks from Jamie T’s albums he has used similar themes, one of them being from the album ‘Panic Prevention’ which used an image of Jamie T in what looks like his bedroom.<br />Here is Jamie T’s album ‘Panic Prevention’: <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm_oGeE1SukRwRXFtmqgHGyiD_OuR_YOxVehbKiUO6EvzQnhQ8lNiG9Vnf9EupzGGI8xQ34VN88fY_Tvw7B9ufVll4NJsg4FlpG_eH6Y1EyFXI3K7QVHQqldYe2Pb-zYma6JiqYJJ8Ge_G/s1600-h/jamie-t-panic-prevention.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm_oGeE1SukRwRXFtmqgHGyiD_OuR_YOxVehbKiUO6EvzQnhQ8lNiG9Vnf9EupzGGI8xQ34VN88fY_Tvw7B9ufVll4NJsg4FlpG_eH6Y1EyFXI3K7QVHQqldYe2Pb-zYma6JiqYJJ8Ge_G/s320/jamie-t-panic-prevention.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415053077691636450" /></a><br /><br /><br />Jamie T is seen lying on the floor of his bedroom playing his guitar, the guitar shows what type of genre the album uses which tells the audience immediately what they are likely to hear if they were to purchase the album. Furthermore, his bedroom appears to be very messy, and as we all know untidy bedrooms are often associated with young men. This further promotes Jamie T’s image of being youthful and also rebellious. <br /> <br /><br />The advertisement was designed to be a full page advertisement in a music magazine.

I think that we have achieved this very well in the construction of our music video, digipak and magazine advertisements in the way that I have portrayed Jamie T to be youthful, rebellious and fun loving which fans know are his main personality traits. Hegemony is used because the idea of the star image is that the consumer is positioned in such a way that they are in relation to dominant social values. <FONT COLOR=cyan>The ‘star’ is clearly more famous and almost more idyllic than the audience and so this creates the star persona that the audience like.</FONT>Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18148822258477002832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-49955833860607751592009-12-09T01:41:00.001-08:002009-12-15T04:15:35.479-08:00PW - Magazine Advertisement Final<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ3xK_2_kRRlRLm3aO9l6J7f5duc0nmTT0_j-Ujl7pZLvxHGMHtSTBIcUHmbWiaM__hNfnRec-DE9lCrsB20GUYqahyDpKroCWs8pDumoiJBMsOWN-Ep-7eCdjRXfYmoWAVwKlZmvBe9Cr/s1600-h/advert+1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 226px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ3xK_2_kRRlRLm3aO9l6J7f5duc0nmTT0_j-Ujl7pZLvxHGMHtSTBIcUHmbWiaM__hNfnRec-DE9lCrsB20GUYqahyDpKroCWs8pDumoiJBMsOWN-Ep-7eCdjRXfYmoWAVwKlZmvBe9Cr/s320/advert+1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413169431084050338" /></a>Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18148822258477002832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-52754438309019725712009-12-09T01:40:00.000-08:002009-12-15T03:47:32.341-08:00PW - Digipak Final<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsul9O0q2lCv7aC1JWHu4ljCSx_ly0rStnRF-gIwIBuEAwqpoIEmZII_tUdqq3o_ODi6eNUL4r1v0LzVmuFN4KyUoH8YARqa3-3zA-jvxudXuiZFPzp8-F1fHZ0OZd0VorCC2fb-IcN9eR/s1600-h/Digipack+1.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsul9O0q2lCv7aC1JWHu4ljCSx_ly0rStnRF-gIwIBuEAwqpoIEmZII_tUdqq3o_ODi6eNUL4r1v0LzVmuFN4KyUoH8YARqa3-3zA-jvxudXuiZFPzp8-F1fHZ0OZd0VorCC2fb-IcN9eR/s320/Digipack+1.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413169205300539026" /></a>Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18148822258477002832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-81176574534268111042009-12-07T11:28:00.000-08:002009-12-07T11:30:31.994-08:00Final Cut<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_wz6LKs2LYs&hl=en_GB&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_wz6LKs2LYs&hl=en_GB&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Joehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03435757076379377077noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-78650382115945121102009-12-03T03:06:00.000-08:002009-12-03T03:22:15.261-08:00Rough CutWe presented to an audience a rough cut of our music video, some parts were not completed and we knew that some of the shots needed to be adjusted or re-shot, to help us with our feedback we asked them to answer a few questions to help us improve on our music video. We firstly asked whether they enjoyed the video and why, everyone said they enjoyed, this may be out of common courtesy, howeverthere reasons were normally the same, people said that they enjoyed the locations which made it very interesting to watch, they enjoyed the stop motion and also they said the lip synching was good. Overall they said they could repeatedly watch it. We also asked if the genre was apparent throughout the video and they agreed due to the costume being worn and the mise en scene and this re inforces Jamie T's image. One shot that the majority of people liked the most wasn't even in the video, unintentionally it was left in the time line at the end when there is me dancing with the London Eye in the backdrop, this means we will try and put this in. Some areas we were told to improve on is the shoe stop motion needs to be more crisp and fluid, which we will re shoot, the performance shots are too static, which means we will need to put a few zooms in this, more jump cuts need to be included and some shots need to sharpen up a bit and be a bit shorter.Joehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03435757076379377077noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-83039284195214822672009-11-30T05:28:00.001-08:002009-12-15T03:48:40.963-08:00PW - Digipack IdeaWhilst producing our own digipack I have been looking at other digipacks in the same genre of our artist. This is the album <FONT COLOR=cyan>'A Grand Don't Come For Free'</FONT> by <FONT COLOR=cyan>'The Streets'.</FONT><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6cwrGp8TlBBG67EiH5bfRKIY1721xOSjNY_L75THv-ZIgEFYRjW-H9Z5rx0tM5LIa2UDSAVy5iWjL6aCyusxjcxzTfEXmr9spdNLTfr7l1ZwRFZ7uThusVHE080ojzAfeNkraSq-jREVK/s1600-h/the_streets+grand+dont+come+for+free.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6cwrGp8TlBBG67EiH5bfRKIY1721xOSjNY_L75THv-ZIgEFYRjW-H9Z5rx0tM5LIa2UDSAVy5iWjL6aCyusxjcxzTfEXmr9spdNLTfr7l1ZwRFZ7uThusVHE080ojzAfeNkraSq-jREVK/s320/the_streets+grand+dont+come+for+free.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413278708817001922" /></a><br /><br />As you can see, the album cover is very simplistic which involves one image. The image is of a bus stop shelter in a very <FONT COLOR=cyan>urban location.</FONT> The reader can see that it is urban because there the bus stop is damaged and it has graffiti on it. The artist is seen to one side of the bus shelter leaning up against the window, this shows that he could possibly be lonely or bored, either with waiting or other issues he has. The font used is also very simple, the name of the band 'The Streets' is layered onto its iconic cigarette lighter which shows that the artist is rebellious and youthful as smoking is often stereotyped to the youth. <br /><br />I think that this digipak is good because it is in an urban location, which is what we will try to achieve when constructing our digipak and magazine advertisement.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18148822258477002832noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-42663115585287340872009-11-30T05:27:00.000-08:002009-12-15T03:49:06.180-08:00PW - Digipack and Magazine Advertisement Rough Draft 1Here is the rough draft of our digipack.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_3SI6jjfbg2okk-tFW4G3BQD32_4qlVavXELIu2HgS_kyMdbOEthiWm7UcGw-JE5Tae6Nddr9k2q-xU-YpZSxyhDUVUh2HNRuE_LWahMP9H5Htz-UKECyqtQD0p5dVVR7s3UdTP_3WFa8/s1600-h/JAMIE+T+2.bmp"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 256px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_3SI6jjfbg2okk-tFW4G3BQD32_4qlVavXELIu2HgS_kyMdbOEthiWm7UcGw-JE5Tae6Nddr9k2q-xU-YpZSxyhDUVUh2HNRuE_LWahMP9H5Htz-UKECyqtQD0p5dVVR7s3UdTP_3WFa8/s320/JAMIE+T+2.bmp" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413170179314434626" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb7T2ZBd935YvjbfaXDsEP0DzWv0-08sAshME3AhWw_iQcn4Doak_16B-GEPKBw7C2zKoJLhBGdwjc-WZqqJTadVvQitAIxWuIT32GMxl0gQJkg2rSw8uKmw8m3sJfCmR93PbnPWdpXzzD/s1600-h/digipack+picture.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 256px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb7T2ZBd935YvjbfaXDsEP0DzWv0-08sAshME3AhWw_iQcn4Doak_16B-GEPKBw7C2zKoJLhBGdwjc-WZqqJTadVvQitAIxWuIT32GMxl0gQJkg2rSw8uKmw8m3sJfCmR93PbnPWdpXzzD/s320/digipack+picture.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413170025710116082" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJm5EhDaNWSqBPObGCzCtmhnuIQbWRVnIsockYXoYCTxz_eLf6-wW8SZrsCS31teidvEwXUFu3DozApxeQG0DVa4sTSb3JRzR0NJ19rt4LvEnsN2JfeDnMD85Lker2RPz7sKLcz7fJ9mmv/s1600-h/Jamie+t+Digipack+2.bmp"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 306px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJm5EhDaNWSqBPObGCzCtmhnuIQbWRVnIsockYXoYCTxz_eLf6-wW8SZrsCS31teidvEwXUFu3DozApxeQG0DVa4sTSb3JRzR0NJ19rt4LvEnsN2JfeDnMD85Lker2RPz7sKLcz7fJ9mmv/s320/Jamie+t+Digipack+2.bmp" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413170024409845666" /></a>Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18148822258477002832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-81337950598821560872009-11-26T02:19:00.001-08:002009-12-15T03:57:27.025-08:00PW - Filming #5 Evaluation<FONT COLOR=yellow>Filming production log-</FONT><br /><br />This shoot took place on 25/11/2009. <br /><br />We went to the girls house in Brasted for this shoot as we thought the location was good.<br /><br />It took a long time to shoot because after filming our intended shots we tried some <FONT COLOR=cyan>stop-motion animation shots</FONT> which we will try to incorporate into our music video. <br /><br />This shoot was the filming when all three characters in the narrative are used.

There is also time shwen they are dressed up as characters from the Matrix, and the background as well is very blank inferencing the Matrix again. The dance moves as well are very much influenced by Michael Jackson, sich as the anti gravity lean. Also the post production sound effects on the voice through auto tune is very much like artists such as T- Pain and when Kanye West went through the Auto-Tune phase.Joehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03435757076379377077noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-30351092616279741602009-11-13T02:33:00.000-08:002009-12-15T04:07:19.086-08:00PW - Planning Of Filming #4Here is the plan of the fourth filming shoot which will take place on 15/11/2009.<br /><br /><FONT COLOR=yellow>Filming #4-</FONT><br /><br /><FONT COLOR=yellow>Location - Joe's house, Westerham.<br />Date - 15/11/2009.</FONT><br /><br />This film shoot will be similar to our second shoot in that it will be a long task taking several hours. <br /><br /><FONT COLOR=yellow>Location reccie-</FONT><br />We went to Joe's house previously and saw that it was a good location for this shoot.

This is a good picture to use as there is a nice silhouette from the lighting coming from behind me, also there is the iconic image of the millennium eye there which could conform to the conventions of the genre, the font as well looks very amateuristic and could be a motif of Jamie T. This is just a general idea and some changes would need to be made, such as improving the quality of the resolution and changing the font of the words Castro Dies.Joehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03435757076379377077noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-39719126315889626052009-11-12T01:39:00.000-08:002009-12-15T04:07:57.327-08:00PW - Music Video IdeaContinually throughout the production of our own music video. I have watched many other music videos so to keep track of what we are essentially aiming to produce. This is so we do not go off track of the whole music video idea and the purposes of it. <br /><br />The music video <FONT COLOR=cyan>'Dont Mug Yourself'</FONT> by <FONT COLOR=cyan>The Streets</FONT> is a very <FONT COLOR=cyan>lo - fi</FONT> and low budgeted video which uses simple techniques and styles.<br /><br />In this music video I especially noticed and liked two different things. One was at the time 0:20 - 0:30 where the lead singer is seen pouring salt onto the table. However when the camera changes shot and <FONT COLOR=cyan>pans out</FONT> it shows that the salt has been layed out in such a way that it resembles the outline of a woman which would have been drawn out by an artist. This helps the reader to understand what the singer is thinking in his head which gives a bit of information away other than the lyrics. However, the image is spoilt when the waitress brings over two plates of full english breakfasts and puts it ontop of the salt. This action could be conveyed into many different ideas, one that is that he is more interested in other things than women which is why the image is covered up.<br /><br />The second thing I liked about this music video is the use of <FONT COLOR=cyan>stop motion</FONT>. At the time 1:33 - 1:37 the lead singer is seen drinking a pint of beer in long shot. He then puts the glass down on the table and as soon as it hits the table the beer is seen quickly decrease as if it is being drunk but not moved. This insinuates that he is a heavy drinker in the video and that he has no problem in drinking large amounts of alcohol. This could be conveyed as him being rebellious or not caring about his well being.<br /><br /><FONT COLOR=yellow>Here is the music video 'Dont Mug Yourself' by The Streets:</FONT><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/eqxu6l8QMFI&hl=en_GB&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/eqxu6l8QMFI&hl=en_GB&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18148822258477002832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-91823103586085199432009-11-12T01:35:00.000-08:002009-12-15T04:08:26.359-08:00PW - Filming #3 Evaluation<FONT COLOR=yellow>Filming production log-</FONT><br /><br />This filming shoot was planned to take place on 13/11/2009.

He will be wearing his new era cap which is quite ironic because a normal office worker would not be wearing a new era cap at work as it is quite casual attire. <br /><br />We are filming this because it will fit well into the lyrics. Where Jamie T sings 'I'll end up working for the BBC as a runner' we are going to film Joe looking bored and fed up at work. He will also have cups in his hand as if he is looking busy.<br /><br />A call sheet has also been given to all cast and members in this group.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18148822258477002832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548318570558688084.post-69808179350216589322009-11-12T01:18:00.000-08:002009-12-15T04:15:53.196-08:00PW - Digipack initial ideas<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbF3y7cvPYcRbNth2vtSfXhLInMuly2TiIeGlVe_1k6a8m1YYpuhJVOENvwwdFsC3LNFqETUuwQQn4Uomt8BbIrdzaZ_2nnmxp3l7QIcvp3mZErMf6RdQpn1OnG2K8cO2Wxx5Q7BC-_Pv2/s1600-h/jamie+t+digipack+%238.jpg"><img style="display:block;

This will include the album cover and any other promotional images which will become part of the digipack for the album. <br /><br />Here are some images which I have created to become part of our digipack. These are only inital ideas and therefore not the finished article because a lot more time will be put into the digipack production to make it look neat and complete.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18148822258477002832noreply@blogger.com0
