Risk Assessment

Here is a risk assessment of any possible problems that could occur and be unsafe. This will be very helpful when filming as I will be more aware of the possible risks which should mean they will be less likely to happen and it will be a much safer environment.

Filming and Editing Schedule

Here is a film and edit schedule of when I plan to film and edit my music video. The dates are accurate as I sat down with my main protagonist in my video and discussed days that she was free and matched them up to the days I was free too. Hopefully I won't have to re-film any sections and I finish according to my plan. This motivates me more to do it right the first time so I have to make sure my lighting and camera is set up exactly how I need it.

Production Post 17 - Light Streak Creation

I wanted to create a light streak photo by using a slower shutter speed. I had researched online to find good tips on how to create an effective photo with ease. I went to Swakeleys Roundabout and changed the cameras shutter speed to around 13 seconds. I ended up with a few good shots but my favourite was the photo at the top
< I opened it up in photoshop and increased the brightness and contrast and also altered the hue/saturation settings so that it had the bright, colourful look that is in the photo at the bottom.

I love the effect is has and it ties in with my magazine advert as it caputures movement. It also adds another effect of colour and lights which is vital for my music video as the who video is going to be different forms of light and movement being shown such as Sparklers, Glow Sticks, Chinese Lanterns, Fairy Lights and car Time Lapses.

Animatic

Animatics are used to create a sketch version of your video and it allowed me to experiment with how long to hold each shot for and what was too long/too short. This was very helpful when editing all my footage as I had a basic rough guideline to follow and adapt.

Storyboard for Revised Idea

Here is my storyboard for my idea alterations. I have sketched a rough copy of each shot I want to include and the order I want it to be. I am not sure if all of them will look effective and I may have to change some of them in order to make my video excel. I will experiment with different shots when I am on location and hopefully I will find some more interesting shots that work well with the locations, costumes and props used.







Production Post 16 - Digipak Designing

Today I came into school to purely work on my digipak and edit some of the photos I took yesterday at Swakeleys roundabout with the slow shutter speed. I wanted the fast cars on the front cover of the digipak so I could attract the audiences attention immediately. On the back cover where the track list is I wanted a more calm photo so that the songs are easy to read and it doesn't divert the audiences attention elsewhere. I took a photo of the sunset between two trees so I decided to use that photo on the back. Above is the front and back of my digipak completed.
