Re - Shoot

From our feedback I decided that it was important for me to add some extra footage to my music video because I felt as though it became very boring and its better to have more than not enough. This meant I need to do some more planning about what scenes would be good to film based on my facebook.

• Needing to show we live together

This was a piece of feedback which was not clear in our video. So I was trying to find simple ways in which we are able to show we live together without making a whole new story. Previously I believed that the dog would ruin the scenes, however, I think that the dog shows that we're a family and more together. So this created a new scene of us walking the dog together and showing us coming into the house together. This hopefully makes it cleaner that we were very serious but also o the day of the shoot there was one car in the drive which I believe shows that we share.

• Could include an argument

This I found particularly hard to do but I felt like to was a good scene to do if we were able to pull it off. While looking through other videos its very serious and it has a very strong impact on the video and it shows emotion and it adds to the story making it clearer. It will hopefully fit into the video and contribute the narrative.

• More moments where we are a couple

This I felt was key and very important for us to include so we have shot scenes like in the kitchen and the living room where we are together so we can show the emotion between because this is a key feature to include in the video.

These are key features which we filmed and I will edit into my video to improve it and make it more professional. While it was easy to shoot and this day was very productive and quick as we were on a time limit. It was crucial that we got this filming done as soon as possible so I am able to have enough time to edit it into my video.

Album Cover - Audience Feedback

My Album Cover

I allowed the target audience of the age range which I want to appeal to look at pictures and ask them to decide which was there favourite. Below are the options which were they mostly appealed too

Here are the amout of people which agreed with the pictures. They are in order of above.

I think its really important to see what the audience looks at when they want to buy an album, its clear that they have seen that the pink dress is clearly appealing to the male eye, based on things which they have said. After looking at the pictures there are some that would not be suitable for my image and what I want to be seen as. It doesn't match my song and the feel of my video.
So I took the second picture which was next choosen and decided that I wanted to see what effects I would add to the picture to make it more creative and similar to that of Alanis and Imogen. This is the when I first started playing, the first design which I liked because its slightly moody and it would still appeal to the target audience. However I think this would be more appealing as a single release instead of on front of an album.
Below is my first attempt at an album cover art. I like the theme of black and white which runs through this design but I have just began to get use to the software and I am finding it interesting and I want to continue with this idea.

Album Cover Ideas

Here are some of the pictures which we took to be part of the digipack and a possible album cover. I need to choose an album cover which will represent the star and the music which will be on the album, but I need to make it appeal to an audience as well.
This is the picture which I would like to put as the album cover as it has me in the center and it portrays me in an indie/rock kinda way with the background and pose. But there are several other pictures seen below which could also be used as my album cover. I will using the social networking site Facebook to see which one is more popular to a target audience.

Interlinking Ideas

Linkin Park - Numb



Because I have choosen a cover version of Linkin Park Numb it's important to keep the audience of this song avaliable to us as well. To be able to make this sog avaliable to both an indie and R&B audience the video will have to apppeal to both audiences. To do this, i looked at this video and decided to take to studio effect which they have. However, ours will be different because it will be set in a studio which is linked to R&B artists. The crossing between the storyline and the performance is also similar to how I want my video to be presented; however, I will link it back to R&B by having a storyline to do with relatioships.
Its important to not loose any of the audience so linking between the video and the idea of the video is how I plan to keep the audience as wide as possible.
