Test Footage


This test footage is to practise using the 'old film affect' on PhotoShop they had loads of different aspects of this including: flick, hair, and tilt which were all affects I wanted in my music video. Some parts of the music video will have more of one thing i.e.) tilt then in other scenes to make it look more realistic.

Storyboard

Final Storyboard




This storyboard shows a more descriptive view on my music video, I knew what technique to use for the video but the editing will be the most sufficient in the music video. The storyboard shows different styles of the 'old film affect' for example (hair, flick, tilt) in which scene as well as different camera angles. What I have leaned through my research is that different genres of music have a different look or image so for this particular genre I have the camera to show of the band with their instruments in a more old fashioned look. The video itself has the 'old film affect' this ideas came to me as I thought it will link with the title of 'home' to relate with 'old home film', I believe it has a different look to most music videos of this genre but still keeping to the techniques as well, for example it is not in front of an audience but still shows the band playing and singing. The song is very slow tempo and the emotion is very low and I believe this look and technique of the video really suits the song as old films are very emotional, sometimes old films are quick and often jilt, so it suits the guitar as the guitar is fairly quick tempo.

Animatic Storyboard
It was very difficult to explain my video and filming techniques through drawing (bad drawing) but I did attempted to explain what my music video will contain.this is a very basic idea of my thoughts on my music video, I know that I wanted to have a technique to be constantly used thoughout the video, with my research I have noticed the affect that the 'Black Stone Cherry' video used thoughout their music video was a steady cam and I thought of having an older look of that affect.

The Gig


Photos taken


























These photos that I have taken show research of my chosen artist to see the bands personality as it needs to reflect in both the digipak and the video, and also to see what they are like in this kind of environment, these images shows the band preforming at their gig at the Kings pub, these pictures show different shots at different angles eg) at a low angle, and I differed the lighting at times using the flash. This was a challenge as people were in the way at times but I still managed to gain some good pictures that I will add to my digipak and its booklet. The images taken give me an idea of what my music video will look like as I want the background to be based on a stage or look like a stage eg) the studio. The only negative point I have to say about the pictures and why I am thinking twice for the location of the video is the big flat screen TV in the background as it will be a drawback for my 'old film affect' on my video.

My digipak up to now

Open publication - Free publishing - More printscreen These print screens show my work so far on my digipak and its booklet, as I want more images which relate to the music video more I will add more when I do my filming. These images are taken from PhotoShop and it shows how i placed the images using rulers to make the images even.
