Audience Feedback


Feedback i received based on the most recent video i have created, draft 2. this is ital because this if the audience still believe there is editing to be done, i will need to o this before adding special effects. i can also gain ideas from what special effects people might want to see.

W/C 20th February



Back at school this week has meant that we have been able to look into the problem that i was having with my music video on the programme. The solution to the problem was to first render out the footage, and then export the footage, in three seperate sections and then re upload the footage as a new project and start again with the same footage.
After this was done, i could also upload the new footage i had film and slot this in to place. I have now completed the final draft of my music video.

Music Video (Draft 2)



I have read feedback I received from the first music video I created and i have to my best ability taken these comments on board and tried to correct the faults found. I have also changed some things that I personally wasn't happy about.

W/C 13th February

This week is half term period, and therefore we have no tbeen at schhol. However, the school was open on monday for us to come in and get some wortk done.

On Monday i attended school, and i was able to get the last of my re-shoots done and uploaded on to the computer.
I had hoped that i would have been able to completed the second draft of my music video, with the re-shoots in place, however due to a cause that was out of my hands this was not possible, as the programme that i am using to produce my music video (Adobe Premiere) had a fault and kept crashing.

During the rest of the week, i had a laptop at home which enabled me to get on with the other products we are required to complete for the coursework, such as the magazine advert and the Digipack. My main priority fo the week was the Digipak, and i was able to get this completed.

Digipack

 Front
 Middle
Back

These are the final verisons of the digipack i have created. I went through several different trials with these, each time collecting new audeince feedback to make improvements to make it the way they would like it. I felt this was important because they CD cover is the most imporant part because its what they will buy, the other two products are to encourage them to buy.

The front and the back are both very similar. The front is the front of her head, andthe back cover is the back of her head, both conotating the same meaning, as the back is a continuation of the front.
The centre although has a similar meaning is slightly different. the meaning is still about emotion, however focused more on memories, as the photograghs she is sat on represents the meories.

W/C 6th February

This week i needed to finish off the centre of the Digipack, by putting in a background. I decided on the brickwork, after trying out all the different ideas i had. But when i put in the plain brickwork i had taken a picture of, it didnt look right, so i playedaround with different effects on photoshop, to change the look. When i was happy with what i had done, i applied the finishing touches, such as ensuring all the white background of the image of the model had been removed and added a drop shadow to the image.

Also this week, i completed the 3rd page of the digipack. I was undecided what i was going to do for this page, but in the end i decided that having the poloriod pictures i used for the 'floor' of the second page of the digipak, would look good becuase i didnt want to have some thing that was too much, as the disc was going top be going over the top, so my aim was to try to keep it simple.

The last task i completed this week was the disc. I wanted to bring back the theme of the whole promotional package, which was Pink, Green & Black. So i made the background of the disc Green, an 'R' in Pink,which look up the whole lengh of the disc and a Black outline. Before creating the disc i looked back at the advert i had previously completed, to and use the same fonts and ensured i got the same colour, using the colourpicker.

W/C 30th January

Now that i have completed the 'floor; for the digipak, i needed to decided on a picture of my model which would be appropiate. After a lot of consideration i was able to decide on one, so i used photoshop to edit the picture, by removing the background and placing the edited verison onto the document i was using for the Digipack. I then resized the image until i was happy.

Last sage of completing the centre peice was deciding on a background. I had many ideas for this, and therefore just a matter of trying out the different background, which you can see on my blog. The ideas i had where brickwork, sunset and waterdroplets on glass.
