music video changes

SIGNIFICANT changes made whilst filming and editing:

location of drain pipe in storyboard changed to pathway with fences as was too flooded to film there.

Scene removed of tribes man walking across river as was too flooded to cross.

Replaced a medium long shot of artist under bridge with a medium long shot of tribesman between fences

removed shot of man and tribes man in crowed place and replaced with long shot of them dancing

music video production diary





Above are screenshots of editing for my video.
the first shows how i put the logo in. I made it so the logos are overlay the footage of the artist so that the audience can make a connection between the logo and the artist. The first few shots are all establishing shots of characters and locations so that the viewer is familiar with them.

The second screenshot shows how i implemented a ken burns effect. This makes the shot seem less static and focus' the viewers attention. Also it shows me reversing the footage for that shot. I did this so all the people in the background walk backwards, this emphasises the idea of the tribesman being out of place and lost.

The finale screenshot shows me adding extra effects to this scene. This is the scene where the man becomes happy and embraces the tribesman culture so to emphasis this i added a 'dazzle' effect. This makes it so the light in the footage sparkles. Also i added particle effects to float across the screen. This was all to put further emphasise on the mans happiness and make the video more fun loving. 

website production diary





























Above are the two pages for my website.

Home page: I want my website to have a very consistent colour scheme of blue green and pink this is to reinforce my artist brand and so users can associate those three colours with him as well as photos of the artist scatted around the page.
For the design of my website is implemented a zigzag feature this is the make it unique and modernise it. It also breaks it up into sections so it is easy for the user to follow.
As for the content on the website, i added small paragraph under the video giving a very brief synopsis and purpose, i added a behind the scenes so users can enjoy extra content, also there is links to the artists twitter and news about how to enter a raffle for the artist merchandise this all promotes interactivity between the audience and the website.
I also implemented gifs from the website giphy so website is more energetic and appeals to a fun loving audience.

About page: For the about page i inverted the colours of the background and logo to give a unique dynamic and cool aesthetic. On the about page is a small biography which focus' on the artists connection with music to keep it relevant. Also there is a message from the artist, the message it to promote diversity, this is to go along side the purpose of the video. I also implemented a link to a diversity charity this was the further reinforce interactivity and message of my video. It also includes photos of the artist with someone of different ethnicity holding up a poster also.
finally there is a gallery which includes multiple photos of artist and characters in settings from the video this helps the users make a clear connection between the website and the video.

music video draft and feedback

First draft


https://youtu.be/B12wI78UQ6I





improvements to make:

logos at start are too blurry and could be redone and could be moved.


lip sync out of time at 2:22 and 2:29.

pace of editing is to slow at end of video, needs to be quicker to meet brief of 'fun-loving'.

Need to add shots of where tribesman is walking through shopping centre.
