Filming music video #2

(added)

Location -
In the street
Band practice room
Bedroom x2

Added Props -
Skateboard
Guitars
Drums

Ive added clips to my first draft as well as edits and transitions, ive added clips of two members playing drums and guitar so that it fits the conventions of a pop punk music videos as instruments are shown and appear in the majority of pop punk music videos so i added these clips so that my genre was more recognisable and so it fits the forms and conventions of my genre.

I have also added clips of two people skating down the street as the genre of pop punk is usually related and stereotyped to skaters.

I have also added my clips of my cast (the couple) to fit my narrative genre of romance and this makes my narrative/storyline more known by the audience.

First Date Music Video 1st Draft

This is my first draft of my music video i still have a one minute and a few seconds worth of footage to film and add to the draft to make it complete as well as adding transactions in between. In my first draft i have added some transactions towards the end to show that the actor Simon is day dreaming. I also need to take some of the audio of some of the clips I'm editing as I've left some out and I will do this on my 2nd draft.

Animatic of my still shots.

This is an animatic video of some of my main still shots which match my story board (which is posted on my blog and i also have an animatic of my storyboard with the song) I have placed my still shots in time with the music which also matches up with my music video.

Make up and styling.

Pre-production to shooting my music video the key and main things i need was the colour red as i wanted this to be a feature that stands out in my music video. Do feature the colour red i made sure that my model Ayisja was wearing red lipstick and a red bandana and these are shown throughout the video.

 These are the make up equipment i used on my model for the music video and as you can see the red bandana and the red lipstick feature here and below is the result. I made sure my model kept her piercing in as this is a usual feature in pop punk genres and having a model who has piercings really worked well.

For my male model Simon i made him wear casual, laid back clothing as that is the look that it usually seen in pop punk genres, and seeing these conventions on my music video will attract and appeal to my audience as they may find a quality in my models which they appeal to or can relate with as well as recognizing the genre of my video. Below is a picture of Simon and what he was wearing for the music video.

Over all both my models fit the appearance of someone that would typically feature in a pop punk music video as they both have an alternative look to them and because of this they both work and look good together in the music video.

Draft One of Ancillary Texts

For my first draft of my advertisement i have taken inspirational from one of the posters i have analysed (the issues poster) as i thought it was simple but yet good layout and its an alternative idea which is the look i am going for. Although i may add an image of one of the people who are star in my music video and carry out the emphasis of the red when doing so (example show on my post of a drawn up draft of my digipack) From the issues poster i have analysed i have included the idea of having a place where the audience can pre order the cd as i thought this was a good feature to include, when doing this i have included a link to a website (another media platform and a form of web 2.0) and i have made up my own name for a record label 'lock down records' as this is a feature that is included in all music side of media as every source of music needs a record company when releasing as this is a conventional feature. The poster may need some tweaking as i want continuity throughout my ancillary texts as i have found this is conventional of a CD and magazine poster when i was looking at research products. I have also made sure to include a date of the singles release which again is crucial for a poster advertising the release of a single as this allows the audience to know when the cd / single is available to buy which again is a conventional feature of an advertisment advertising the release of a cd or single. 

The first draft of my digi pack back cover and front cover i have continued to use the colours red and black throughout for the text which is also featured on the poster, i have done this to make sure there is continuity throughout my media platforms as again this is a conventional feature which when i did my research for the ancillary texts. I have made sure that i have included a parental advisory label on my cd cover as i have found when doing research that this is usually found on cds of the pop punk genre for example the 'blink 182 - take of your jacket and pants" cd includes a parental advisory sticker and this is of the same genre of my music video therefore i have used this feature as it is usually on most pop punk cd covers therefore my genre may also be recognised by this by the audience. I have made sure to include a price code as this is included on all cds of every genre so that it is available to buy. Referring back to my drawn digipack i am going to be influenced by that further in my complete digipack as it will make the genre more recognisable as a subgenre.
