Magazine advert draft 1

This is a of the advert which needed to be altered due to audience feedback from (Jack Meadows) as the image i used for the poster was obviously photoshoped. Therefore i changed the image to a more effective pose and changed the 'Out now' to 'nucking futs' which is the title of the album so that it is in the font style that is known for the brand of rancid.This is what is going to be on my final product.

Photo album shoot for magazine advert

I took a variety of styles of pictures on the green screen with the members of the band in our final music video to be our final image on the magazine advert. Out of these selected few one of them will be the image i will use to advertise the album 'Nucking futs' in the final advert product.

Magazine advert inspiration

I used this advert as a template that i will use on my final product as i knew it would appeal to an audience as its an existing product.

This is the final storyboard for the final product of my music video as it outlines the shots we are going to use and the order which the footage is going to be in the actually final product its self. This is very important in the planning process if you want your product to be successful as your group knows what shots to film and can have feedback if they think shots or the sequence needs changing.

Music video inspiration-TRC H.A.T.E.R.S

We wanted a music video with a full narrative which tells a story. This doesn't consist of any band shots because the band feel music videos should tell a story and i feel the same way.

Inspiration for Final music video: Coldplay-Trouble (UK video)

This video is one of our main inspirations, the idea is basic and boring but the lighting is probably what makes it bearable, its uses of shadows make the music video seem eerie and the seedy lighting makes you wonder why he's tied up.

My inspiration: Arctic Monkeys -Leave before the lights come on

This video by the Arctic Monkeys 'Leave before the lights come on' was my inspiration for the music video i produced as it was from a same genre of Rancid but most of all because it took its own interpretation of the song and displayed it through a reenactment of a persons experience.I thought that was an original and good way to represent the the meaning of the video in this type of format as it keeps your audience gripped on the songs lyrics to think if they agree with the interpretation

My inspiration: Arctic Monkeys -When the sun goes down

This video by the Arctic Monkeys 'When the sun goes down' was my inspiration for the music video i produced as it was from a same genre of Rancid but most of all because it took its own interpretation of the song and displayed it through a reenactment of a persons experience. As the song was about some ones life like 'bob' by Rancid it was an interesting way of displaying a music video as a short film and challenge the conventions of a normal music video which i thought was appropriate for Rancid as their attitude towards the music industry is to always challenge conventions and become orinla hence their pop punk genre.

Green screen test analysis

Green screen test

When i put a colour background behind the performer on the green screen there was a problem as the green carpet the college uses for the green screen had being vacum cleaned and you could see the marks which ruinded the effects. Therefore we had to rethink and decided to start on a new idea. Analysis on the PowerPoint.

Green screen rough cut

This is a rough cut of the first part of the music video that is all on the green screen as its the intro of the song that last about 30 seconds. We wanted to use the green screen so that it allowed us to put a background behind the person with the ipod or even create an effect so that the lyrics come up in the back ground. In addition to this we had an idea of changing the colour in the background to represent the song mood at each point over the whole of the track.

Green screen practice with IPod

As we didn't know how the ipod screen would work on the green screen and being filmed by a video camera we decided to test it out with a short sequence of the music video ,which we had planned out in a story board, It also showed us if the sequence looked effective on the green screen or if we needed audience feedback to improve/change this. As well as this the green screen practice allowed us to see if we had set up the lighting to create the effect we want to represent in our music video.

IPod lip sync

For my first idea for the music video i had to film the lips of my colluge in the group i was working in and mime the lyrics of a NOFX cover of the song 'Bob'. I did this by putting the camera on a tripod to ensure that the camera was steady at all times to make the video look professional and keep to the conventions of a music video. I played the music in the background of the video so the person miming can keep in rhyme with the lead singer in the original track which is important if this illusion was going to work. After this piece of video footage was shot our idea was to put it on an hand held iPod to represents everyone's mouth in the video and pass it between the group.

Inspiration-Liam Lynch: 'United states of whatever'

This music video of Liam Lynchs 'United States of Whatever' shows that an green screen can be used effectively to create a music video purely using it. This is a low budget production for allowing less established bands with not alot of money to spend on creating and promoting their music videos. This video was our inspiration for our green screen rough cut video to start the intro of my music video on the green screen as this creates a comedy effect like in the 'United States of whatever' as it was appropriate for the band we were using 'Rancid' as it represents how they don't always take things seriously. This would allow us to keep the audience entertained by using illusions on the green screen to get the meaning of the song across in an unique and original way to give the audience gradifacation. Finally it would represent the pop punk genre well by using an orginal way to display the talent of the band and their new products via the music video.

Inspiration-Tuborg Liquid Soundtrack 24 Hour Challenge Winner - Josh Wroe

This video gave me the inspiration to use the iPod idea by filming someones else lips miming the song lyrics and using the iPod as their own mouth because i believed it could fit into the genre of music video we were going for. However i adapt the idea to tie in with my music video and to suit my genre more as this video is to dance music not pop punk.

My chosen song - Rancid-Bob

This is the song we are going to use for our music video which is 'Bob' by rancid but a NOFX cover of the single. We decided to choose this song because it is not well known or mainstream therefore it hasn't got a official music video for the track meaning we can have our own interpretation on what the song represents with out anyone disagreeing with it. In addition it was a band that we both take pleasure from listening to and can relate to the genre of the song as we listen to similar styles to Rancid therefore it was the perfect song to display a music video for that maybe one day will be their official video.

Bloodhound gang 'Kiss it where it smells funny':

Our first idea for the song we were going to use for the music video was 'Kiss it where it smells funny' by bloodhound gang because it was a band which is well known but the single doesn't get the recognition it deserved therefore i thought we could put our own interpretation of the song. As the genre of the song is comedy rock/punk our idea was to do a spoof or parody of the official video that has been released for the song to represent the bands immature attitude towards the song. However when we tried to lip sync the song on the camcorder it was to hard to lip mime the oringal song so we decided to use 'Bob' by Rancid instead.

30 second soap trailer

This is a short 30 second soap trailer ,that I had planned out in a group, allowed me to show are original video production skills I have which can be expressed through the soap I chose. It enabled me to get used to the camera equipment and gave me an idea of how a production team of a video would be like. After shooting the preliminary trailer it allowed me to display my editing skills in imovie on the apple mac including putting a music track in the background of the video (Example 'Stay awake') , using title card with text that relates to the video to create effect on the audience and making the camera steady by using the tool. After creating the video i was allowed to see what worked and what i needed to reconsider with an analysis of the video in class by the audience and their feed back.

Hollyoaks soap trailer script and shot types

Picture storyboard of soap trailor

View more presentations from akabucko.

This is a script with screen shots of the shot types of an episode from Hollyoaks that was an option for my group to reenact for our short preliminary task. However we didn't end up using this script as it only resolved two characters therefore would be appropriate of a group of four as one person wouldn't be able to gain experience from filming this short piece and see where we went wrong or what could be improved when they start their main task.

Tripod trix

Tripod Trix from Vimeo Video School on Vimeo.

This video of 'tripod trixs' is a tutorial of some great techniques for using a tripod to your advantage while filming my music video as it not just for keeping your camcorder on. The video shows you range of techniques you can use to improve your framing shots to make the video look smoother and more interesting to the audience by creating different effects. For instance the 'dolly slide' effect which allows you to create suspense to a scene or emphasis on an object of importance to your video or just to add motion to your scene so the stop any static shots.Another technique that this video taught me was the 'crane' that can add drama to a scene you are trying to shoot.However the video also showed me how to improve a technique such as panning a shot smoothly the way the tricks works is to use a rubber band elasticity to move the camera slowly one way to create a perfect pan. Finally 'tripod trixs' shows how a tripod can become a steady cam to keep all the shots still by having a mobile camera that can move anywhere. Overall this 'Tripod trix' helped me improve my music video vastly as it showed me how important a tripod can be to a film production.
