Isabel Denney-Foster's A2 Media Coursework

We edited most of our final video at Ben Field's house however our draft videos were edited individually at school. I believe that when we edited as a group it was more successful and we were able to discus how to conform to the genre more in depth. Both scenarios  of making our draft and our final piece we used Adobe Premier Pro. 

The chrome-like writing which is used on these CDs is the style I would like to be noted that I was hoping to convey through my digipak layout. Unfortunately there was no way i could have shown this during the design process on Photoshop. 

This is what I hope my Digipak to look like with a cellophane wrap and a bar code sticker.  Without-  My disk- I would like my tray to maintain my leaf image and the CD to take up the pattern subject to the position. The writing on the CD I was hoping to achieve a reflective metal sheen which reflected when moved (almost mirror- like material). 

 Here I experimented to try and mimic the style of one artist who has inspired me. I used photo shop and layered photos I had taken of my artist to achieve this effect. I also edited the brightness and the opacity of the images. I had discovered this when I was visiting the site Consequence of Sound. I have decided I would like to try and attempt this again so I am going to take some more photos and try this affect again.

Through the stage of production our group worked efficently and well together to complete the task at hand. We worked all together to aid our camera workers to achieve the simmilar look of angle, distance and facus of each shot. The lighting was a difficult tas that we managed to overcome and achieve as well as we possibly could. There were no difficulties with how to acieve the shot or puzzling momentsof which shots we had todo and how to do them and this is all down to how well our pre-production phase was executed. As an actor who starred in it i can honestly say the the lipsynching aspect of the video was hard to perform as well as embarassing for me however as i view the results now i am pleased with the outcome. The studio at the school allowed us to create and mimic the mise en scene found in the original music video. Weattmpted through out filming to keep track of shots we had left to do by ticking them off however we lost track and got too caught up with just getting the shot ...
