December Schedule

This is my groups filming schedule for December. We have run into problems such as not being able to have our filming group free on certain days, we only ended up having 2 scheduled filming and editing days as a group. Also due to national holidays such as Christmas these have made it hard for our group to come together to film. However we hope to have enough footage filmed during these 2 days and start to put together our piece.

November Filimg/editing Schedule

This is my groups November schedule for meeting up, filming and editing.
We have chosen to base most of our activites during the weekend as it is the time where we are all free. I have used Google calendars to create this schedual. I thought it was useful to use Google calendars as it shows us public holidays and events where we may not have a chance to film or may allow us to film some of the event where it may be useful to use in our video.

Copyright Permission


Due to me and my group deciding on using a remixed song, we have asked permission from the copyright owners to use the selected tune through an email. A brief explanation of what we're going to do was given and we re-assured them that their video will not be tarnished in any way.

Website mock up

http://ezmak1.wix.com/ezmak

This link will take you to my groups website mock up. It is a basic plan of what we will put on our blog and how we will do it.
We've decided to add links to social media and sample videos to the genre. All the photos in the mock up were not taken by our group, they were found on the internet for this mock up. We chose these photos because they fit to our product genre. We have gone for a Rap/Hip hop genre and these photos fit the conventions of these.
We have chosen to use the template 'Music Artist', this is because it fits to the needs of our product.

Preliminary Task (Fast slow editing video)


For this task we were told to go out and film eachother standing still and experiment with camera movement, we were then given a soundtrack of which we had to implement the clips we had filmed prior to editing; my group did this blind without knowning what type of song we were going to have to sync the clips to and as a result we came up with this. From this preliminary task I have learnt the importance of filming many clips to give a more diverse range of shots and have a variety to work with, this would allow us to keep the video fresh so we wouldnt have to recycle clips due to running out of ones we hadn't used yet. From this I have also learned a few new editing skills and a basic understanding of using 'Final cut' I had never used final cut prior to the task and so it was a learning curve for me, even so I was able to use it quite well and had learned a few editing techniques such as colour filters and clip rotation. My group used colour filters and clip rotation to try and match up to the music and visuals, the combination creates a feel of disorientation and confusion which is what we were going for.

Favorite video



This is my favorite music video because it looks very different, there is a lot of different types of editing used within this video and plays around with many visual elements; I like the use of a greeen screen to make different patterns and shapes behind Eminiem, this gives the audience a sense of confusion. The video lag gives different style and makes it really different. The video goes well with the song aswell as it syncs with the video. The fast verse and the visuals all link up and sort of make sense as they go well together with what is happening in the verse and the video.
This video could be a conceptual style video because it has some metaphores that the video could insinuate, however, becuase of how linier the video to some could be straight forward.
