Question three


music video focus group video


Music video focus group breakdown



Pros:

Nails bouncing on drums- match on match- match on match (12 seconds in)

Mostly good acting/looked natural. (26 seconds in)

Good drumming as a result of him actually playing them. (38 seconds)

Good variety of camera angles/shots. (1:08 seconds in)

Easy to identify the video as a rock video (1:28 seconds in)

Editing matching the style. (1:34 seconds in)


Cons:

Bad acting (19 seconds in)

Couple of shots were a bit shaky. (59 seconds in)

Bad lighting in bedroom (1:56 seconds in)


For next time: better acting while fixing areas such as lighting and smoother camera transition shots (e.g. panning shots.)


Digi Pak and poster focus group video


Digi Pak and poster focus group breakdown


Pros

Mise-en scene matches my genre (32 seconds in)

Liner pictures that told a story (46 seconds in)

Good thought about how to show story (58 seconds in)

Easy to understand story that links to my music video through good references (1:05 seconds in)

Good shot types/clear images (1:30 seconds in)

Good amount of informative information so that picture wasn’t ruined(3:02 seconds in)

Sam likes it (3:32)


Cons


Topless shot might be confusing as only one actor different have top off (1:38 seconds in)

For next time: t=The only changes I would make is to make sure that all shots are necessary for my theme and that it makes sense for all actors to be doing what they are seen to be doing.

Digi Pak


Question Two

When creating my ancillary products I wanted to make sure that I included links between them and my music video. I did this so that it would create an identity for the album/band and to make sure that the subjects trying to portray can be easily seen from the audience’s perspective. The main links between the two include the idea of seduction, partying and control over people. Just like my music video, my Digi Pak and poster will show a story of how partying developed into seduction and the effects of it the morning after. I wanted to show this as it matches the music videos theme; it matches my genres conventions almost perfectly and finally/ultimately I believe that it would be an interesting theme to see as a Digi pack. If pulled of well this will express many different occurrences and expectations that are associated within the genre and music as a whole. By having these expectations included, people will be able to recognise the style automatically and therefore will be able to tell if they are interested or not. By including themes such as sex and partying, it also will appeal to a wider audience as these are element that can be found in many different genres. How ether I believe that the biggest selling point to this design would defiantly be its non-liner story line. By including this the audience will be shown everything they need to know about the album as the story covers all aspects and themes included. After seeing this once the audience should have a very good idea on what to expect and where it is something they are interested in or not.

James- a few ideas here but take and upload some photographs- remember you are doing 2 ancillary tasks and they need to link together with the main video.
