Our Story Plan



This is our story plan for our music video. It was a very rough draft as we didn't have a final plan in place and due to location changes and new idea coming about. Also this draft wasn't finished so many of the shots we wanted isn't drawn or written down. We are using inspiration from many different popular music video, where we would of been using acting in the beginning but due the nature of our music video and limited acting ability we didn't want to make it too cheesy and un-needed. We will however

Questionnaire

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GN5YXTV

We have made a survey based all on music videos and the people who watch them. We used simple questions like What is your gender? and What is your age? We then moved onto some questions based on music videos like What is your favourite music genre? and How do you watch music videos?
Many of the answers so far have been correct and quite helpful but many of the answers haven't been answers in good intentions  and most of them will have to be deleted meaning we will have less answers then we original wanted. As we have only posted the survey a little less then a week ago, at this currant date (21/09/2015) we have 39 responses. Both myself and Emily will keep posting it on social media for people to answer it. We will also pass it on to people around the school to get more of a student result seeing as we are aiming for that age range.

Preliminary Task


Candy Shop Music Video from Hazel Stevens on Vimeo.

This was the first ever music video we made which was a great test for our real task. As the song wasn't our own choice it was quite hard to work a video around it. We used green screen for the first time with this video and it was quite fun seeing what we can overlay and how to change the effects like the hue on some of the clips to make the colors of the clips different. We also added some stop-motion into the clip and again, overlay some videos with the green screen and reversed some of the clips to create and interesting and creative. One of the other effects we added was kaleidoscope to made the video look more eye catching due to the colors moving around in different patterns.



Majik Wand Advert from Emily Friend on Vimeo.

The "Majik" wand advert was quite a lot of fun to make as again we didn't choice what item to "Sell"so coming with the kind of parody style of advert was a good idea. We based it off the JML Adverts that airs on most televisions late at night which has the over enthusiastic american voice over, uses stereotypical and over exaggerated scenarios that happen in real life. We used more green screen in this then our music video due to location and timing problems which was good practice for other work we might do with green screen.
