Because of my lack of footage this is the case, as i had to repeat one or two shots, however i cut them up to make it look different. I don't think this is a huge issue and i wont be changing my video as this would involve me re-shooting which would take too long.Alexandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06981722632016161173noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372552536798758839.post-36125620812419096272011-03-31T06:25:00.000-07:002011-03-31T06:34:23.015-07:00Evaluation Task 2Voice over script-<div>When filming my music video and making the Cd cover and magazine advert i kept in mind the basic "look" i was going for, a simple straightforward concept, with the hands being the main feature in all of these. The "brand identity" is plain to see, as in all my products i have used the same lighting and hand characters, it is easy to see they go together. I have also used the same font in all of these, found on "DaFont.com", called Prophecy Script, which looks handwitten, keeping in the theme of "hands". </div>Alexandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06981722632016161173noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372552536798758839.post-90182648355737022972011-03-30T04:28:00.001-07:002011-04-06T04:06:27.415-07:00Evaluation Task 1<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAdWW4FmGzrIwf982OSpUFL9qeclzJ3rJv8BMPKd9QTOymPjMehDpEbx64KcJ0IrugBHJ66nzCbhrFYGAYkL5olXDe3kIAjRAf-kQVot3ihXaEbJoGWczuFnSNbFPWWN0TkQDhN38sZZ0/s1600/eval1.bmp"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592424555498289378" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 292px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAdWW4FmGzrIwf982OSpUFL9qeclzJ3rJv8BMPKd9QTOymPjMehDpEbx64KcJ0IrugBHJ66nzCbhrFYGAYkL5olXDe3kIAjRAf-kQVot3ihXaEbJoGWczuFnSNbFPWWN0TkQDhN38sZZ0/s400/eval1.bmp" border="0" /></a> <br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtsRQM_gbeYk7Iz_VXOAiSgm6OvMugDTuplbAYCSmbN73fSla8p44DJU3I_L5NX1JxUIf5pTpoomY9AjGF-dEdTTQpIf9qYXHmyGMC-ssREZggVDipSqgDFLXFX-NXCmLLdvQaX7U9qTo/s1600/eva1.bmp"></a><br /><div></div>Above, on the left are screen grabs of my music video, on the right are screen grabs from "Slow Disco" by IZABO. Both of these videos use hands are the characters, i have chosen shots that are similar, to show that my music video has followed conventions of this type of music video. The compositions of both of the music videos are similar, using the middle of the screen for the majority of the shots, but also using the whole scene to show the story. The "Slow Disco" music video uses bright colours and follows a storyline, whereas mine is very muted and is more abstract in nature.</div><br /><div>The last frame shows the differences in the music videos, in mine there are no probs or backgrounds.

Because of the scene with a fake ID it is obvious the mouse is under 18, therefore the character represents young male teenagers. This video is showing, bluntly how teenagers can act, but there is no message about stopping this behaviour, the only resolution is that another character, a cat beats the mouse up. This is a humerous nod towards the game "cat and mouse".</span></div></span>Alexandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06981722632016161173noreply@blogger.com0
