Music video

After months and months of filming, editing and stressing we have finally finished our music video. Overall we are happy with it however we feel like the lip singing could have been a bit more accurate. Below is the music video...

Digipak

Below is my Digipak for the Empty Gold music video aimed at females from the ages of 16-24.

Software's my group and I used to create this digipak include Lunapic, DaFont, Powerpoint and Photoshop.

We took inspiration from Richard Dyers 'Star Image' theory by having Tayla look directly at the camera. We used Dyers theory for both our music video and ancillary tasks as this meant that both tasks were familiar with each other and the consumers.

Final Magazine advert

Below is my magazine advert. I have decided to use Tayla's face staring directly at the camera to create 'star image'. I have also decided to use the same colours and font as on my digipak and music video so consumers can make the link between them.

Digipak analysis

Below is a digipak album that my group and I have analysed. We thought it was a really interesting digipak and so we took inspiration from it when we created our one.

Evaluation questions

With my music video finished I can finally get started on the evaluation. I have been looking at past evaluations to help me start planning which has been veery helpful. Below is a screenshot of the evaluation questions.

To present these questions I could use either...

• PowerPoint
• Slideshare
• Voiceover 
• Picture in Picture 
• imovie
• Vlog

Front cover for the DIgipak

Today we all came into school to get some more work done on our digipak. After first trying (and failing) to use Adobe Photoshop we decided to use microsoft word to finish the task as we were more familiar with this software. 

After many complications trying to remove the background we found the website: http://editphotosforfree.com/photoapps/remove-background-from-image-online/ which helped us learn how to remove the background. However the background wouldn't remove completely and so we were left with many white specs. We feel as if we have got a lot done in toady's session however we still have a lot more to do before we are finished and so will hopefully come back and do some more soon. 

Below is a photo taken of Tara trying to figure the problem of the background out.
