MALFUNCTION...

On Monday 10th December 2012, our media lesson was based in the mac suite so that we could blog and edit. Georgia and I ATTEMPTED to do so ...


HOWEVER 

Figuring out how to move around and cut our media text was trickier than we thought ...

THEREFORE

We weren't able to start or complete our editing...

 


We have the intentions of starting editing before Christmas or even during the Christmas period.
On a bright note !
Georgia's and I have been able to finish the animation, that will be incorporated into our music video. Below is a teaser of what has been done.


We have shown the teaser to one of media teachers and she has compared the the look of our animation to the animations that represent 'The Gorillaz',  an English musical and visual project created in 1998 by Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett. The project consists of Gorillaz itself and an extensive fictional universe depicting a "virtual band" of cartoon characters.

This is one of their music videos named 'Stylo', this is a good example of one of their music videos that have a similarity to what we are trying to create in our music video. We are trying to create a sense of reality as well as the youth portrayal using animation as a representation.
In the previous post before the page break I mentioned editing before or during the Christmas holidays ...
This wasn't possible due to my lack of motivation mentioned in an earlier post and the interference of
the upcoming January exams ...

**SIGH**


HOWEVER ..

Next week we are definitely going to have a go at editing and finalizing our music video ...

We and probably the rest of the world have established that our skills on the mac have the competencies of a    uncooked chicken ..
with that thought in both of our minds we came to a decision to use movie maker on a PC instead ..

Reasons for this are the above regarding our uselessness on the mac and because we both can access this on our PCs and home and have experience using this program together when we were younger ..
