30/11/2015 update

Today I my blog as well as the rough cut was reviewed and I was given feedback. This feedback said that I had to add the shot list onto my blog, and create more call sheets. It also talked about the footage and how some of the shots were not in focus. I will try to address these concerns for my blog and footage.

Shot list

This is our shot list, this shows the number of shots as well as the type of shots that we will use. It also talks about the action that is used within the shot and it talks about the mise en scene within the shot.

Drawing for the advert and digipak

This is the drawing of the digipak as well as the advert that we might use for our final piece. however the idea might change when we do the final piece. the fist drawing will be used as the digipak, it is a picture of the artist. the picture is then faded and it has a mountain inside of the artist. The second drawing is a picture of the artist at the bottom of the mountain, with a faded picture of a girl in the sky.

I have finished the advert as well as the album cover for the draft drawing, however i haven't scanned them in yet.

Lighting experimentation

This is some experimentation with the lighting, which will be used for some shots of the artist, as well as some shots that might be filmed in the dark. As you can see it light up a bit of the field of view. So we might use this in our final video.

24/11/2015 Progress

I have started the drawing for the album cover, I have nearly finished the drawing as all I need to do is the mountain in the outline of the artist. From there I will scan the drawing in.

Analysis of font

This is an analysis of the types of font that we could use for the advert and digipak. We want to choose a font that will suit James Blunt, also we want to sue a font that will be best suited for the song. 

Animatic James blunt

This is our animatic of our storyboard for James Blunts "When I find love again". This shows how our music video will play out. However, it may change when we do our final piece.

Rough cut 3

This is our third rough cut. This rough cut, has some of the flashbacks within the music video, these flashbacks show the artist with his old girlfriend who are out on a date. Also the music video has been edited so that there are more thought beats. However, there are still some shots that are still a bit out of focus, also the narrative of the music video is still a bit difficult to understand.

I have finished the drawing for the advert for James Blunt, I have also started the digipack and this will be an outline of the artist and within it there will be a picture of a mountain in it.

Rough cut 2

This is our second rough cut. This rough cut has some shots of the artist in a dark room singing, there is also some shots of the artist playing an acoustic guitar. However, some of these shots are still out of focus and we still need to add some flashback shots.

Filming details for 21st-22nd

Our group have decided that we will go out to get the second part of our music video and flashbacks for the throughout part of out music video. we will go get our flashbacks from 1pm on Saturday, where we will visit Crimdon beach to get  some scenes of our artist walking the dog with his girl, and perhaps get some images of him and her walking the dog in the park. we will also visit cafe Rappor in Hartlepool town to get some shots of them in the cafe. the plan also includes getting the out of focus shots of the car from rosemary topping however we plan to find a similar place rather than going back to rosemary topping. once we have to sets we just plan to get some shots of them just hanging out in general in Declans house. the Sunday we plan to leave Hartlepool at 5-6 on Sunday to go to the Infinity bridge in Stockton on tees at night to get some romantic shots.

I continued to draw the draft for the advert but i still have need to finish the drawing. I have started to draw the woman's  face but it still needs to be finished.

17/11/2015 Progress

Today I started to draw the draft for the advert that might be used. To do this, I got a picture of a hill and started to draw it. I will then have a woman's face at the top and the artist at the bottom.

16/11/2015 Progress

Today, I added three new ideas for the advert, I then posted this to my blog. our group also discussed our music video and about the narrative of the music video. We decided that we were going to film in different places for the flashbacks, one in a cafe another at the infinity bridge e.c.t

Plan for Advert

This is a plan of what we could do for our advert these go into detail about what the shot would be use and what effects might be used for the advert shot. Also some of these ideas could be used as the digipak as well as the advert.

13/11/2015 Progress

I have started a plan for what we could do for the advert for our music video. I have done this in a word document and I am doing points for different ideas that we could do. I have also been told to do a ancillary plan.

Storyboard Page

This is is our storyboard, which talks about the type of shots as well as how many would be used within our music video. Each shot has an illustration of what the shot may look like as well as arrows to indicate the where the camera may move to or from.

Today we went to the studio and we got more footage of our music video. We filmed three bits of footage, these pieces of footage were of the full song but they were from different angles. one is a close up of a guitar and the other two are of the singer from different angles.

Screenshots of filming

This is a picture of our group filming. This picture shows us near roseberry topping and it is of us doing a pull focus of the artist.

Screenshots of group discussion

This is evidence of our group discussion. In this we talk about what we would be wearing if we are going to be in the music video, we also talked about what we would be doing of the day of filming and what time we would be meeting up.

Rough Cut One

This is our first rough cut of our music video which is James Blunt's "When I find love again". From looking at the footage, some of the shots aren't in focus, so they are a bit blurry. Because of this we will have to re-shoot some of the shots. We will also have to get more footage specifically some of the flashback scenes.

02/11/2015 Progress

Today I have uploaded a new page which shows screenshots of the logo being made. I have also started adding comments on each post that explains what each post is and if there is anything wrong with it.
