Chosen Clothes

New Location Reece

This is the new location where we will be filming our preformance. This theatre is ideal as once all the chair and tables have been cleared we are left with a large hall with red carpets which makes the room seem feminine. We also have the large projector so that we could do the projection scenes.

Major Changes

Due to unexpected changes that have occurred we have had to change our artist from a band to a single female singer. This is due the band being unable to act for us due their jobs and clash of schedules. However the song requires a bold female singer. Lily Budd had opted to be the actor. This does not change the artist image we are trying to portray, if anything this makes it more female orientated. We are still trying to achieve a artistic, independent and creative artist. This would also conform to the indie genre. The location we will be filming the performance has been chosen as a large lecture theatre that would be cleared out, with a large grand piano in the centre.

Clothes - Revised

Due to the unexpected changes in with the band and the location we have had to slightly change the performance part of the music video. However the narrative remains exactly the same.

Group Meeting 24/11/2011

Today we received bad news from the band that they were unable to preform at the dates we needed and the only time they were all available would be too late for us, as they had personal matters and jobs that could not be schedule around. We have had to quickly re-think some of our shots and ideas however we were able to keep the concept and the artist image the same.

Revised Performance Production Schedule

We have revised our production schedule for the performance part.

Group meeting 22/11/11

We have come together to discuss that the band are able to be filmed this week and the narrative will be shot soon after. We have also decided that we will need to take a task each of either the website or digi pack, so i will be taking the role of the designs of the digi pack and obed will be doing the main part of the website.

Digi pack ideas- 1

This set up of our digi pack is our first idea.

                                                

                                                               We have both decided the front cover that is posted on the blog
                                                                      will be the final one we are going to use.

I wanted to make the layout of the songs as interesting as possible so
thought of adding the tree used on the front cover, and minimize
some of the leaves and write the song names along the branches. 

                                            

                                                        For the inside covers of our digi pack we wanted on one side a band
                                                                 photo on primrose hill where they play throughout the video, with the skyline                    
                                                          and instrument in the shot however we do not know the positioning.

As well as having the band photo, I then thought a photo of the
actors during the narrative would be nice as well, however I
planned for this photo to go where the CD will lay, merging
two photos of both the actors faces looking into each others
eyes but faded into a sun.

Digi pack sketches

I have researched into the sizing of a digi pack so that we can present our album like ones already made in the industry.
