This week...

I finished editing the music video and also made this banner using Fireworks to show what tv channel the video would be played on and also what style of record company they would belong to. 


I have been editing two panels of the digipack - the front and back covers. This is one draft of the front cover.

Editing

 I've been finishing off the video edit and been experimenting with colour correction and other efffects. I am trying to make the footage appear quite bleak and I've been trying a green tinge to dull the footage down enough to represents the location - underground- as well as the tone of the song.

What I've been doing...

On the first shoot, on the 18th November Joe and I shared the shooting and directing equally but in our reshoot of the performance, due to circumstances with our singer/actor, Joe had to take his place, meaning all shots of performance that included him were shot and directed by me. Joe took the more dominant role in the shooting of the narrative set in London. He is also doing the editing of the performance while I'm only editing the little bit of narrative we have. I have been trying to edit a bit of the performance so I can learn how to multi clip.





We did our photoshoot last week and so I've started editing them using Photoshop, playing around with early ideas for the digipack.

Pie Charts:
1. I more organised the band members whilst Joe organised the lead actress but we both worked pretty equally.
2. We both went location scouting and found our venue for the first shoot but for the re-shoot we used the lecture theatre because it was all we had. We both talked about where in London would be best to shoot.
3. We both discussed costume and told the actors what we needed them to wear as well as find costumes when needed.
4. I mainly organised the props. I painted posters, masks and bought gold ribbon. 

Due to our lead singer and actor not showing up Joe had to fill in for him meaning that I had to do the majority of shooting of the band performance as well as directing. We shared lighting duties equally. Because of this, I need to let Joe do the majority of editing as he did not have the chance to do as much as me during the filming process.

I would say I have done about 60% of the research and planning. We have not yet finished all the research and planning which we are doing asap but looking at what I have done, I would say I have done roughly 60%.

Overall, I would say I have done 60% of everything. In the filming process that is not because I have been overbearing but because there has been complications which have meant Joe could not do as much. The footage is looking decent.
