Digi pack and advert mood board

Here i have created a Mood board for our new idea of the ancillery task which is to use close up picture's of the instruments of the band.

This should give us ideas and angles to take the pictures at.

5th day of filming

Our fifth day of filming and hopefully our last. We booked the same place as before and have got the same actors wearing the same clothes as we need it to look as similar as the previous lot of film so we can use both sets.

This should be our most successful day yet as each of us have had a lot of practice from the previous four days of filming.

For this time I have carried out some extra research and thought up many more ideas which should help us when filming.

On previous days I have not done much filming so this time i insisted on filming more myself so I could also film how i would like it and to use my own ideas. I did the majority of the filming on this day with the rest filmed by Jake. Previous experience also taught me that as a group we must take more control over our actors and make them do what we want them to do for our video to look professional, I took this on board and told them to do exactly what i wanted when i wanted this helped hugely in making the filming quicker and getting much more done in the same amount of time as before.

Digi Pack and Magazine Advert.

Both of these products as the ancillary task must relate together and look similar, using the same fonts and colours on the advert as are in the digi pack.

We have changed our Idea for the digi pack from the motor way to a simpler but better looking idea. We have simply decided to have a picture or picture of the instruments used by the band performing. Here I have created a Mood board to help with ideas of different angles and looks of photographs we could take of the guitars and drums.

Yesterday I bought a music magazine 'Rocksound' to use for research into magazine adverts. The majority of this magazine's adverts are for concerts and some for singles and albums but they still all give inspiration. I will also bring some albums i have into school for us to look at for help on how to create the digi pack. Here are some picture's of adverts within the magazine.

Album Digi pack

As a group we must create a digi pack album for the song we are using for our video. This is a 4 page pack with a cover, back and 2 inside pages. The cover needs the most interesting and eye catching artwork and the back needs the track names and will be less interesting than the cover.

Our first idea and most likly to use is a photo that we will take of a motorway at night useing a slow shutter speed on the camera, this will show the cars headlights on the road creating a long line of light here is an example of what we would like.

Editing And Discussion.

After looking at the footage we collected on the 4th day of our filming, we thought that what we had was good however, not enough. This means that we must return to the same location to film some more.

I felt that we had enough footage to begin editing and then have a base on final cut to edit around. This would also give u some practice at editing before we began at the final product, I started editing a small amount for different parts of the video that we had film for.

We did some more planning for the next day of filming which will be our 5th day and hopefully our last.

4th day of filming

The most succes we have had was on this day, we use our planning and lit the setting better and filmed the correct way. This time as a group we took more controll over the band to make them do what we wanted them to do rather than being less forcefull as before. Even with the sucess of this day we still did not capture enough footage which means we will have to return one more time to get more and enough film to create our video.

Planning for 4th day of filming

We are going to use the same location for our next part of our filming however we have changed two of our actors, the lead singer and the drummer this is because they will look far better as members of a rock band. A second change we will make is having extra lighting as the first time the drummer was not well lit enough and practiaclly could not be seen, plus there was a large amount of shadow on the singers face.

A mistake we made before was that we did not hold the camera 'handheld enough' so this time we will change this for better looking footage for a music video.
