Friday 11th of March

Today i'm going to edit the footage that was taken yesterday for our music video. when today ends i will put up the work i have finished so far but that is not the final version of how the video will look.

OK Go

I really like this video since it is a combanation of simple step by step animation and normal recorded video. i admire the groups effort for the video since they put loads of dedication into their videos, they must have stayed in that park for over 24 hours since they clearly slept there. i wish i had that much dedication.

testing

These are video tests using the strobe light and normal room lighting.

Shouting test

These shots were done so that we got an idea of what the lighting was going to look like in the final piece. i was used since both doug and ita were camera shy. hopefully in later production they will be willing to let people see them on the video.

Thursday 10th of March

Today we are planning to make more progress in our recording for the music video. i had to get my hoodie from home to give it a more R&B feel to my character. There should also be some test footage of our recording from today and yesterday which will be added to my blog.

Recording

Today we did our main recording for our music video in the media studio. we used its main black room for a nice solid colour effect. Doug brought with him a strobe light from his home to make our video more jumpy and look more effective. Also we had help from T who came with us to the media studio and helped  us with our 3rd singer whom we had problems finding in the first place.

Digipak paper version

we made a paper version of our digipak so that we knew how to make one when we finish our projects so that it looks professional.

R&B music video's

Kanye west's (good morning)



Eminem's (beutiful)



Cee-Lo Green's (F**k you)



Rihanna's (Russian Roulette)



Taio Cruz's (Dyanamite)



These are all video's of the R&B genre which all feature relatively good story lines.
