Drafts Poster

This post will analyse my poster so far:

 This is how my poster is looking so far. The colour scheme is once again consistent with the rest of the ancillary tasks. I've tried to be as conventional as possible when creating this poster, tour dates have been added to attract the audiences attention. Facebook and twitter logos have been added to relate to the younger generation. But this also indicates the growth of the social network and how its controlling our lives.  

Drafts CD Booklet

Below is the first draft of my CD Booklet:

This design is following the same style as the CD, the colours and logo are consistent throughout. This page is simple yet draws the audience in, the logo stands out well, as well as the album name below. 

This is the middle page of the CD booklet so far, keeping to the colour scheme (yellow and black). On the right hand side a 'Programme of Music' has been added, this gave the booklet a nice touch. It let the audience know who stars in the video, directed and produced it. There also a picture to show the audience who Bruno Mars is.

Above is the back page of the CD Booklet. At the bottom is the small details about the CD, where it was produced? When? And What record label? There is also a picture of the couple with a bit of drop shadow added so it would stand out to the audience. 

Drafts

Over the past couple of weeks I have transferred the paper designs over to the computer. Below and on other posts you will find the first stage of making my ancillary tasks, which will include a:

• CD
• CD Booklet
• CD Cover
• Poster

The CD above is just a draft, far away from the finish point. But hopefully you will see where I'm going with this. Yellow and black are the main colours. The yellow makes the black stand out more which is obviously why the title is in black, the audience would be drawn towards it. Yellow was also used because its a bright, friendly colour.
On a negative note I don't think this is anyway finished, I would like to add more, e.g. something round the outside to make it more attractive and luring. 

First Day of Filming

28-12-2011

Today we our first day of filming, we started off by meeting rather early (8am) but unfortunately this time has to be changed due to weather conditions. It was extremely windy and rainy, which would have affected our filming. We came to the conclusion to meet at 12pm at Abbey Ruins instead of Greenwich Park. We did this because this location was easier to get to and we were still not sure about the weather conditions so we need to film as quick as possible. This site was still as picturesque as our first choice.

Below are some photos of the first day of filming:

Editing

Below is a picture of our first day of editing.

We started out by uploading our clips we had filmed over the last couple of days. Then went through and decided which ones are of a good quality and appropriate to use. The ones we didn't find useful we put to one side to use in a behind the scenes video later on in the project. We started by creating an introduction by using different locations shots we filmed on the first day. 

Ancillary Task

In this project along with a Music Video we have to create Ancillary Tasks. Below you will find a design idea for one of the ancillary tasks. The idea is a DVD cover, mainly focusing of Bruno Mars but also at the same time adding features from the Glee side as well.  

In this DVD cover we will incorporate a marriage invitation which not only brings consistency but also we’re following the genre of marriage. Normal codes and conventions will also be followed when creating this DVD cover, such as, the logo, title, reviews and age rating.

In a couple of weeks with hope to have more designs of different Ancillary ideas. Such as, CD covers, poster and T-shirt design.

Production Schedule

We had a group meeting to discuss realistic targets for deadlines, this will make sure we’re organised and kept focused with what we should be doing. Below you will find the targets we have set in a table. There are targets such as research, filming and ancillary tasks, after each section is complete we will update the table and post it on our blog.
