Process and Editing

We are both taking it in turns to edit all of the photographs from the photo shoot and to edit and put all of our footage together.

The photos have been taken from both mine and Katie't shoot and we have edited a few from one another's whilst the other one has been working on the video. We both think that if we worked on different parts of the project it will get done and we can look at what we have done and discuss and then change anything later.

Photoshoot

Over half term we started filming and doing photoshoots of our artist so that we have a range of footage and photos for the video and the promotional side of things such as posters and the leaflets for the inside of the CD.
Our shoot was done at the ruins of Waverly Abbey. We thought that this would look good because it is a very old building which is what we wanted. Farnham Castle wouldn't let us shoot anything there so we had to find somewhere which had a similar atmosphere.

We will be editing the photographs over the next week to make them look better. These are the unedited versions of the photos:

Farnham Castle

After e-mailing Farnham Castle for permission to use the grounds to film part of our music video we received a message saying that they could not provide this facility any longer. Katie soon came up with the idea of shooting at Waverly Abbey. As it is public grounds we would not have to get permission to film in this area.

Animatic Storyboard

The animatic storyboard is a sketched music video, using photo cut outs of the drawn storyboard. Me and Katie, split this job between and I had to draw the pictures and work out all the timings, she got to find the music and edit them together.

We found that some of the frames were a bit too long for the music we had, so we did have to cut them down a bit. This didn't take very long as we just wanted to get a fair idea of what it would be like.

The storyboard might not be the final official outcome and may change during the filming process.

Updated ideas

As it is now impossible for us to travel to Brighton in the time that we have, we are sticking with using the local town. As we will be shooting during half term, we decided that if we shot on the night of Farnham Fireworks, we could use the candle light procession tradition and have her singing there. It would be a pretty part to what we are doing and it would look amazing with our chosen song.

We also need to have a part of our storyline

Location Review

Photoshoot Plan

For our poster and other parts of our coursework such as the digi-paks, I am going to do a photoshoot with Susanna in our locations. I have talked to Susanna about the type of clothes I think she should wear for the different locations.

The Locations for the shoot are Farnham castle and Gostrey Meadows. Both of these will feature in the music video. The final location, will be a multi-story car park. I like the idea of having a different location for a shoot as it give us a range of photo types to choose from and we could potentially use a different location for the front cover design, or even the booklet thats included in the CD packaging.

For one shoot, she is going to wear  a white dress, pink heels and wear red lipstick. In another one, a white top and black jeans and a black leather jacket. The final shoot's outfit still needs to be decided, but I am talking to her about this nearer to the date.
