Actress Issues

We have been having issues filming as the actress has a busy time schedule and hasnt had the time to really film. She is not being ver cooperative but it is to late to chnage actors now. We have got most of the footage we need but will need to re-film a couple of bits we are slightly unsure about. We have looked over our draft and noticed some basic errors we are going out to correct these.

Construction

Over the past few weeks we have been filming different clips and have been trying to put our whole piece together. We are haven't changed our narrative and our still sticking with the break-up and how people may resort to different things to help themselves, in this case drink. We have chnaged some of our locations from our recce shots but stayed along the same lines, incorporating th epub location and outside shots with the girlfriend. We have also started to put together our digipack and have incorporated the main props in the picture using the guitar and drink, also have all of the characters on the pack. We are on track and still have a small bit to film to fill in a few gaps but its starting to all come together. We have all contributed ideas and different thoughts throughout the construction which has made the shots alot more inventive and different to what we originally planned.

First rough draft

In this draft we have very limited shots as most are still waiting to be edited, we are missing the break up with the girlfriend and plenty more drinking shots which we are going to be focussing on, in the next few weeks to perfect. This draft has allowed us to see what techniques we could incorporate into our work.

First Draft Review

At the start of the music video it shows the main character Dom, waking up to an alarm clock with alcohol in his hand, and around his room, this shows that he has had a rough night due to the break-up. When he opens his curtains to look outside, he picks up a beer can and then throws it on his bed, then it comes back into his hand (we edited this) this shows that he is trying to get rid of the alcohol but it keeps coming back to him and this is due to his heartache. We then incorporated footage in black and white to show the relationship, this is because it shows that the relationship is now in the past because they have broken up, so it shows flashbacks of what they used to be like (happy). The draft ends with him on his own with alcohol and he receives a text from a friends asking him to go pub. 

We feel that the first draft is good and will defiantly enable us to build on it in order for us to improve it. However clearly the video is not finished, but we have many shots to put into the video. Things what could be improved on is shorter clips so it flows a bit more as a music video.

Shooting Script

This is an example of one of the sheets of our shooting script. It shows the shot location, the actors and props required and the date we did the shooting. This is a helpful perk to have it kept everything organised and in line, this minimized errors and saved us time not having to re-film.

Story Board

These are a few shots of our storyboard. They show the different scenes throughout our music video. They also show the lighting, sound, mis-en-scene and duration of the clip. These storyboards will help us with our filming, because we ill have an idea of what we want to produce.

Codes and conventions of a website, Content

Content- Websites with factual infromation may look different compared to a site for entertainment, this may include factual websites, will have alot more text and information and will look alot more formal, rather too entertainment websites which will have alot more graphics and will be more graphalogically pleasing to the audience. There are different titles on different sites as they would be focus on only one type of information. We will be using alot of images which will link specifically to our music video and can be recognicable to our 'brand'.
