08/09/2010: Media Terms
Today I have analysed media terms and defined them. I have tried to give examples to go with each term so that it is easier for me to understand and remember them. Learinng the right terminology and using them will help me get the higher marks for my courswork and exams.

16/10/2010: Analysing Music Video
Today i have analysed Jason Mraz's- I'm yours music video. I have never analysed a music video before but i really enjoyed doing this because it made me think about how it was created. It's important for me to look at more music videos as i will be creating one. By doing this i will be collecting ideas for the concept of my video, editing and camera shots/angles.

From the video I analysed I learned that the lyrics and the actions in the video relate which makes it easy for the audience to understand the concept.
14/10/2010: Elements of Pre-Production
I have analyzed elements of pre production
18/10/2010: Style of video
We did a mind map showing our ideas for video. i have looked at other videos similar to the kind of styles i'm looking for.
22/10/2010: Concept Ideas and Song Choice
The concept is based on a young man singing about a breakup/heartache. During the video he and she will be doing what they usually do daily; walk through a park, eat/drink at restaurant/cafe, sit on a bench. The video will also cut at some parts to show him sitting down and singing whilst playing his acoustic guitar at home.
As a group we really like the idea and plan to add or make changes as we go on whilst making the production.

24/10/2010: Mood-board
I made a mood board by collecting images from the internet that represent what will be included in the video, ideas of props, scenes ect... The mood board allowed me to build a clear image of the style of our video.
To make the mood board i used Powerpoint and uploaded it on to my blog.

As a group we really like the idea and plan to add or make changes as we go on whilst making the production.
We really like the idea of stop motion. This is a series of images taken of every move and manipulated using props and meterials to put together movement. We've looked at "Her morning elegance" by Oren Lavin a song that is famous for its video and technique. As we know its quiet complicated and many pictures need to be taken, we will probably include few seconds of it in our video.
I have written about elements i need to take into consideration before starting the production. This includes:
- Finance
- Time Scale
- Personnel
- Facilities
- Material
- Contributors
- Locations
- Codes of Practice and Regulations
It was important for me to look at these factors and consider things that might casue problems and affect the prouction and how i will avoide these situations.
Final Song
Our final chosen song in the end was The Script "Break Even" this song is perfect for our concept and the treatment of the video. We brainstormed ideas of songs and chose the best one as a group.
30/10/2010: Story Board
I put together a story board for our video so that we know what happens at every scene. It makes it easier for us to know what we should be doing and to get a picture of what each scene would look like before we start filming.

01/11/10: Anamatics
today i have used window's movie maker to upload my storyboard sketches and mp3 sound of our chosen song. i did this because i wanted to see how the video would look once it is made. I was very impressed with the result and it helped me figure out which areas we need to develop more and what to include and not include in the music video.
03/11/2010: Lip-synching & Camera Shot
We realized that it is very difficult for people in the music video to lip synch in time with the song as well as acting and doing facial expression and also moving at the same time. So we had a go at lip synching as a class. We split into two groups and while one preformed the other group had a go at filming from different angles. It was great way to experience using the video cameras, learning when to zoom in and the best angles and at the same time appreciating how hard it could be for actors to lip synch.

05/11/2010: Cast Video
We took pictures of our cast; Robin and Priya so we can include it in our blog and explain we we have decided to use them for our music video. We used a still image digital camera to take the pictures. Then we had the idea of taking the pictures and putting together a stop motion short video of our cast as practice. I used Windows Movie Maker to make the short stop motion video and uploaded it onto Vimeo account made by one of our group members and embedded it onto our blogs.

we took pictures of the clothing we wanted Priya to wear.
