Half Way Evaluation Feedback
Everyone gave back information and feedback on which parts
and aspects of our video we could improve on.
Video - Many people liked our video and said there wasn't
much we could do. someone said the shots were a bit similar and we should try
and vary this is the rest of the filming. Everyone said they would watch our
video again. Also the outfits we have used people liked the look of and the
image we have created. The use of the colours in the background and the
atmosphere we have made people really enjoyed. furthermore people said the
shots were very good persistently and photos we have are good to use. Lastly,
one said that there were too many shots in the drama studio.
Digi pack - Our digi pack was not completed at this stage so
we had a lot of feedback about what we could do and improve upon our digi pack.
We have idea that we presented and people agreed with the ideas we had. The
logo we put on people liked and was effective.
Website - The photos we used in the website everyone liked
and the colours made the page pop. The links we had were hard to read so quite
a few people said to change the writing to make them clear for everyone.
Brand image - The group liked the friendly happy vibe we
created in our work. Also the group liked how we carried this out through all
our platforms. One said we needed to stop swearing. Finally people said again
that they liked our suits
Everyone but said they would view our video again.
Final Chorus Edit Trial
In this post Olly will evaluate the editing technique we are
considering to use in the final chorus of the music video. We had the idea of
using different boxes and playing different footage in different boxes with the
colours of the band in the spare boxes.
In the first box part Olly felt the size of the main video
for the section was too small so we are going to make this bigger. In the third
part the main box is a lot larger than in the first part and it looks a lot better.
Another aspect we might change is making the lines between
each box white instead of black. This is because some of our footage has a
black background and the lines aren't very clear.
In regards to the coloured boxes. I am thinking we could
make a colourful animation of a moving pattern to put in these sections as they
look too plain at the moment.
Our teacher feedback also suggested we put text into the
video to line up with the lyrics especially in the coloured boxes.
Overall, we are going to use this idea however we are going
to make some alterations.
A Hard Days Night - Beatles
This is another idea for our video. We will have use jumping
down onto the camera. We also added the though of jumping onto a sofa in our
formation. The sofa would be in the middle of a random area such as a field or
car park or a road.
Shooting Plan
This is a plan for what we want to get filmed next week
between 18th and 22nd of October.
Shot List
Close up over shoulder shot of JK writing out the band name
and song, spin out transition.
Close up over shoulder shot of JK writing out the band name
and song, spin out transition.
Spin up transition (Casey Neistat) to Long/Wide Shot of the
desk and subject/artist (JK) in the middle of the street sat at desk, JK’s head
comes up once shot is still and starts singing the song:
Sitting at work on a monday morning then stands up and steps
over the desk (or flips it?) and starts walking towards camera.
Spreadsheet files and Coffee Pouring Harry walks into frame
with spreadsheets and hands them to JK and starts walking with him, Oli walks
in also and hands Joe a mug of coffee.
Office work can be so boring JK chucks the coffee and files
behind him. Still walking with camera.
But then there's the pressure, I’m under pressure. The trio
stop walking, should stop at a midshot of trio shoulders and heads. On the
first pressure oli flicks his head to the right and sings that to a new camera
shot of him and flicks back to the trio midshot and then on the second pressure
Harry flicks his head to the left and sings in his own shot and flicks back.
Casey Flip up transition - now into the Performance part in
the drama studio (or other location) with the trio having different coloured
hand prints on their faces (colour selection of just those colours on their
faces, rest Black and White),
Midshot of trio again of singing, Keyboard starts - Extreme
Low angle tilted up to hands playing the chords on a keyboard. High angle of
someone hitting a drum on the snare beat.
Deadlines come and deadlines go - girl runs through a wide
shot of the group playing instruments, she has a t-shirt on or a sign around
her neck that says deadlines on it, maybe dances with JK and leaves when he
needs to sing - and there's the pressure.
Casey flip up to a low angle shot tilted hup, wide shot of
the guys standing on the mini hills/mounds of dirt (that are hopefully still
there, behind the graffiti wall at the Essex Records Office) sing the chorus or
next verser - revolution in my head
Red smoke filling background?
Props in this would be a pallet of red paint and a big paint
brush, the people on the side can hold one of these things. Close up shots of
these things, matching visuals with lyrics. Stand my ground = shot of feet on
the ground moving about on the spot or moving rocks.
Need to fill the little instrumental with something - Close
up of certain parts of all the characters, arranging cuff, coming hair, close
up on eye, shuffling feet, doing tie up OR this could be like a slow mo dance
sequence
New walking tracking shot? Singing the next verse
Hot as fire cold as snow - we should shoot a part all
dressed as scientists - lab coats, rubber gloves, goggles, tongs - in the
science department, bunson burners and mixing chemicals, something to overlfow
would be cool - 3 different colours interchanging, using the clone tool or
something
Revolution - Dancing in science room
Revolution two -Sitting at a table (location = Gym) for
first round, all smart and nicely laid out, chucks table cloth at camera -
editing reverse shot table cloth comes back from camera scene is now messed up,
would have to cut away to close ups to then be able to cut back to a
performance
MAYBE MAYBE - setting up narrative of going to the field,
text message/call, could lower music during this, make a scene?
Spreading the word, whisper shots (Close up), passing word
on.
I’m under pressure, pressure (slow bridge) - Big open field
red smoke, group of people (maybe about 6), red flag of some kind, baseball
bats, cricket bats, longshot walking towards camera - can do cuts to filler
shots closer up to feet walking, flags unfurling, bashing bats etc.
There's a revolution in my head x2 --- Dancing and singing
on the field with smoke
LAST Chorus - Cut together everything into a mash up chorus
from all the locations
