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.

Revised Performance Production Schedule

We have revised our production schedule for the performance part.

Location Reece

To keep to the song lyrics and title myself and Obed thought the best location to choose would be outside with the band playing in front of a view of London. This location is the rooftop of a prison and have let the band preform there before.

Shot List

This is the shot list for the performance and narrative.

Production Schedule

We have two different production schedules. First for the filming of the band, and the second is for the filming of the narrative. The production schedule will help us to manage our time efficiently.

Album Cover - Idea 1

This image was created in Photoshop. I used certain effects such as multiply, and the font 'Bleeding Cowboys' for the band name. The concept shows a vintage and slighty eroded image, that conforms to conventions of indie and shows the band as artistic and abstract.

Digipack Inspirations

These images above are some album covers that have given us inspiration when it comes to designing our own digipack and album cover. When designing our album covers we will have to consider whether or not the design conforms to the conventions of Indie rock music. We will also have to make sure we portray the artist image and promote them in a unique and original way. Indie music is seen to be artistic and abstract so this must be reflected through our digipack, so it could have bits of photography or abstract images that gets across the image of the artist. The conventions of Indie music in general means that we don't HAVE to use pictures of the band but have images that represent them and their image. These are the things we will be looking into when coming up with ideas.

Digipack Inspirations - 2

Above are some annotations about what different techniques are used to promote different images and themes but how they still conform to the conventions of the Indie music genre.
