SHOOTING SCHEDULE

In order to prevent our last little blip that occurred on Saturday, I have prepared a shooting schedule on Microsoft word, to enhance our organisation, hopefully this will help. I hope to have this filled in and published on my blog by the end of this week.

FURTHER DELAYS...

Georgia and I planned to film a section of our music video on Saturday 27th October, so that we could get closer to finishing and have more time for editing.

              UNFORTUNATELY

The male protagonist had an emergency and could not make it ...
 WHAT WILL BE DONE TO PREVENT FURTHER FRUSTRATION & DELAY ? 

We have learnt from this event to plan filming days after school, that way we can keep an eye on the ensemble and protagonists where about with out worry of cancellation.

TECHNICAL ISSUES

We had originally planned to use my brother's professional camera for the sake of our video looking better quality than it did in our AS project with the school's camera...

UNFORTUNATELY ..

There have been a few issues with getting this camera in preparation of us filming ..
I recognize that this issue could have been prevented if we were more organized in the where abouts of 
the camera.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT ?
If we still cannot get a hold of my brothers camera we can still get a hold of a school camera
to film the music video.

ANALYSIS OF 2 DIGIPAKS


In preparation for designing our own digipak it is essential to practice the skill of deconstructing music albums/digipaks

LOCATION


JUBILEE PARK reps INNOCENCE, AGE, ENVIRONMENT, CLASS 




GEORGIA'S HOUSE (BEDROOM) reps SEXUALITY, CLASS,  ENVIRONMENT 




LIGHTING 

LIGHTING IN THE FIRST LOCATION (JUBILEE PARK) = NATURAL LIGHTING - We have decided not to have any specific type of lighting  in this location/scene because we want it to be natural symbolizing the nature of the subject matter, it would also be unrealistic for us to alter the lighting with out making the music video look amateur.

LIGHTING IN THE SECOND LOCATION (GEORGIA'S HOUSE) = DIMMED LIGHTING - Dimmed lighting will only be apparent for a little while because we don't want to interfere with natural lighting, however the dimmed lighting will connote the darkness of peer pressure and what it could force a person to do.
