Final Digipak

This is my final outcome of my digipak. 


Final Digipak Development


After some feedback I have slightly changed my Digipak. i have added some extra parts which will my digipak look more professional and that will relate to my genre.
I first added a barcode to make it look more like a real digipak.


I then added a box to sit my barcode on to make it more noticable.


I finally added a image to go where the disk will go. For this I chose to have silhouettes of the main band members. 


Research and Planning-Fonts


These are the possible fonts that I hope to use for my Digipak and Print Advert.


Digipak template

This is the template that I am going to use for my Digipak

Digipak Mock


This is my mock design for my digipak. I will get some feedback to see if there is anyway that it can be improved. 

Creating my Digipak


These photos show my process of creating my DigiPak. I first started of by inserting my selected images into the template. i then decided on the colours that I wish to use for my DigiPak. 


From there I added my chosen Font onto the front off the digipak. This was the name of the band.


I then added the album title onto the front and added the name of the band and the song names on to the back of the digipak.


This is my mock of the final piece. I finally refined the colours on the spine and added the name of the band on the spine. 


Digipak Experimentation

I have decided to choose these three photos for my digipak as i feel they relate to the genre that we are aiming at. I have edited each photo using photoshop to give them emphasis. This helps them stand out which we hopefully make my digipak stand out.

Extra Filming

As a group we decided that we needed to do some extra filming for the performance as we found that we didn't have enough. We have also decided to change the location for the performance as we felt it suited our genre better. We previously had problems with the lip syncing looking bad. However when filming today the lip syncing looked a lot better and professional. We managed to used different angles and shots to show continuity in the video. Overall the filming today went very successful.





Editing Update

Today when editing our music video we decided that we need to re-film our performance part of the music video. We have chosen to this because we found out that the lip syncing doesn't match the song. We also noticed that we didn't have as much performance as we thought we did. Therefore we are going to re-shoot our performance part of the music video which we hope will be more successful. However the editing for the narrative is going well and successful. It also links to genre well which is what we planned.  

Editing

Now that we have completed the filming our music video we have started to edit our music video. Firstly we had to capture our filming on to the computer which took a while a to do. To edit our music video we are going to use the software called Final Cut Express. We have shared out as a group equally to edit our video. We have noticed that the editing is going to take longer then expected so we have decided to add extra editing time so that we reach our deadline. 

Filming Update

Today we finished filming the narrative which means we have finished our filming all together. For the narrative we filmed the scene where the car breaks down. We used different camera angles and shots. Now that we have finished our filming we will now be able to focus on capturing the video and editing it. However we feel that we may lack performance which when it comes to editing we will decide if to film more. 


Filming Update

Today we finished filming the rest of the performance but filmed some more of the narrative. By finishing the performance it means we can now focus the rest of our time on the narrative. In the performance we managed to film using different angles and shots. The lip syncing through out the performance looked fine which is good. The weather was the same as last time as it was wet in the morning which meant we had to be careful not to injure ourselves.




Filming Update

Today our filming focused on both the narrative and the performance parts of the music video. For the narrative we found a perfect location for where we could film the camping scene. This meant that we were able to film some of the narrative such as setting up the camping equipment. For the performance we filmed the first part of the song and the chorus using different camera angles and shots. As we only have one camera we had to keep on restarting the song to film each of the different angles. On the way to the location we decided that we could film some extra shots travelling to the location as we felt the scenery fitted well with the genre. The weather wasn't that great today as it rained in the morning but was sunny in the afternoon. This meant that there was some health risks as the floor was wet and slippery. Apart from the weather filming today was successful as we managed to film everything that we planned to film.  





Filming Update


Today we started our filming of our music video. We filmed the start of the narrative part of the video where I pack the car, pick everyone up and start our journey to the location. We started filming today as the weather was perfect for filming as it was sunny which reduced any risks of getting injured. The filming today went well and we  managed to film the scenes that we hoped to film. We had no problems today which helped us complete today's filming in time. We have taken photos to show the different camera angles and shots we took when filming.
