First audience feedback

From the first rough cut of my film I showed my teacher and another student the first edit of my music video, take me to church. they gave me some verbal feedback as to what they thought of the video.

Mr Osborn, teacher's feedback
He said that I had a lot of zoom in shots where I don't hold the camera long enough and that I need to either slow down the footage so that that the zoom wasn't there or re-film. In addition to this, he said that the narrative is starting to build but it would be nice to see some backstory to the younger character or him in another setting playing with the toy car. There needs to be more shots in the church as there isn't enough to fill into the four-minute music video. Also to find a camera that will take more to the light.

From this, I have filmed more shots in the church, however, due to some issues with cameras I filmed with the wrong camera and have had to film again recently. In addition to this, I have taken out the zoom in shots in my video. I also went out to take some atmospheric shots.

Claudia, student
Claudia said he really enjoyed the build-up and that the shots were in time with the music but said one or two especially the ones at the chorus could be edited ever so slightly so that they would go in time with the music. She started to understand the narrative but wondered if it needed to be more obvious.

Genre Specific Analysis: Gorillaz

In this, we see a dodgy city and then the camera moves over the clouds to reveal a buildi ng above the clouds called the feel good inc. This represents how in this building at the top you don't have to see the horror that is going down below the city its almost as if ignoring it makes it better/ ignorance is bliss. The light against the building represents hoe rising against everthing and the building almost makes it seem as if anything in this 'Feel Good Inc' tower is possible. Then in this shot, we get to see inside the building sh owing how dodgy it is in there too. This illustrates what y ou see on the outside (the sign that says feel good inc) is not exactly whats on the inside. The red background connotes danger and lust, linking to the sex drugs and rock and roll vibes going on inside the building. In contrast with the characters blue hair, it makes him stand out characterising and illustrating that he is the singer. Now we see more mov...

Extra final edits made to my digipak advertiment

Image
It was said that my digipak still looked quite busy and that there was too mush going on. There was too many different coloured text and font variations which made the advertisement look to cramped. So I changed all font that wasn't to do with the artist or the name of the album blue and changed it to the same font, Didcot. I then moved some of the album information above the name of the album name to make the text look less cramped between the hands. I then moved all the logos down to the bottom of the advertisement to make the advertisement look more professional. I also changed the colours by putting filters on the image so that the advertisement stood out more.

Rough cut

Image
This is my first edit of my music video for the song 'Take me to church'. While doing this I have realised some issues with the video for instance I have used a lot of my footage in this first section and I think I need to go back and re-film at those locations. For this first section I want to focus on setting the scene (location) and implying that time has gone and that this terrible accident happen earlier on. Reflecting on this I have booked another Day I can film in the church to see if I can get any better shots. They have kindly accepted to allow me to film and I'm changing my camera in a hope that it will take better to the lighting in the church.
