Group Task - Post Production Questionnaire Proporsal

Along with editing process we have been discussing our post production and focus group questionnaire. This is a list of questions we came up with during our meeting minutes. Our aim is to gain valuable feedback which will help us with our evaluation and ancillary task. We have been discussing range of themes including : representations, concept, narrative, genre codes and conventions but also media language (connotations). The range of topics will help us gain useful feedback across different fields allowing us to successfully reflect on our final product.

Group Task - Rushes


Group Task - Meeting Minutes

During our meeting minutes we decided to reflect on our filming process which took place on the 9th and 13th of January. During these two days we accomplished to successfully film our music video.


However, during our filming we came across some problems with certain shots within the Ealing Parking location where some shots we unsuccessful. We were unable to create planned outcome which resulted in additional / experimental shots in particular using the GoPro camera. The use of this equipment was really successful, allowing us to highlight our genre of progressive house even further, creating alive and dynamic movement of the character (this can be supported through our research of artist's such as Avicii - The Nights).


During filming process as a group we shared the role of camera person. This worked really well as we managed to continuously feedback as we filmed, engaging our thoughts and ideas to create the most successful outcome.


ACTION PLAN: COMPLETED BY THE END OF JANUARY


1) RUSHES / SHOT LIST
2) EDIT DECISION LIST
3) EDITING PROCESS
4) POST- PRODUCTION QUESTIONNAIRE


This is a list of tasks which we have already started. Continuously, we are working on the shot list and editing process in order to speed up our time management. Along side, we are thinking about post-production questionnaire and possible examination of our work. We are looking forward to complete our production with a successful outcome!

Ancillary Task - Introduction

In today's lesson we have been introduced to the ancillary task which we will have to complete on the side of our music video. The ancillary task is an individual task which will consists of me creating a digipak and a album advert for my our music video.

Digipaks typically consist of a gatefold (book-style) paperboard or card stock outer binding, with one or more plastic trays capable of holding a CD or DVD attached to the inside the generic. Digipak-style packaging is often used for CD album marketing purposes. The digipak mainly features images (not only of the artist), the artist name, track list and other various informative features. 

A album advert is mainly considered to have a promotional purpose, by which it drags the audiences attention and persuades them to purchase the artists album. The album adverts can be mainly seen on public transport, posters or even in magazines. The advert mainly includes the artists name, release date, track list information etc. in order to grab the audiences attention.
