LIP SYNCING FILMING


FILMING EVIDENCE

these images were taken by Emma as evidence of our afternoon of filming.
the day overall was succesfull, howver we did come across some difficulties involving our tapes. unfortunately as we arrived at one of our locations the tape ran out causing us to finish slightly early then planned, however we still go a lot of filming with dan completed.






we wanted to make dan appear in a daze, and wanted him to interact with his surroundings by touching the trees and being close with the nature. he really got comfortable with his character and began showing his meotion through the lyrics which was great. the location was perfect as it really contrasted with the harsh surroundings that we filmed Ezgi.

the next step for me and Emma is to start editing our footage and piecing it together with the music and ezgis part.

FILMING PREPARATION 24/11/11

today we will  be filmng in burley Forest the location is beautiful and contrasts with the harsh senvironment that we filmed Ezgi in.


our album cover has a very autumn feels illustrating alot of orange and red colours. durng our filming today we have planned to do a shot with dan led in the leaves (high angle shot) and we want the camera to spiral down closer to his face.

using the video camera we want to recreate this image in a slow spiral down to his face as he sings the lyrics
'and i have my room and yes, i cant disappear or leave you here.'

ME WORKING WITH THE SKETCHES AND LINKING THEM

EMMAS SKETCHES




as well as this emma has skecthed some of the angles in connection to the lyrics. this include a slow pan of dans face starting with him looking own and slowly moving his head up to look up to the sky,
'and i am here right beside you'
pragmatically it will show him looking up towards heaven where she is now (after commiting suicide)
emma has also sketched shot of dan stood against the tree and slowly sliding down
'watching you drown ill follow you down, i am here right beside you'
this will show a link to the scene were Ezgi finally slips in the bath shown how he wants to meet her down there.

more evidence of planning. using lesson time to prepare story boards of filming.



planning in detail
making usre that there is nothing to hold us back on our filming. we need to make sure we use the time at the location sufficiently and the weather forcast is essential.




FINAL POSTER ADVERT

we really liked this edit however looking at the other photographs we took we decided that this was the best imageso applied the edit. we made it our priority to make sure 'broken dreams' was seen first as this is what will make the advert recognisible. amazon is the one of the leading music retailers so we found that to show it was available on amazon would also appeal to our audience.

to edit we used picnik and photo shop to apply all the final touches and the text.

IDEA 1 and 2

IDEA 1




AUDIENCE FEED BACK
- the image is effective, the green colours look really nice
-orbe- an orbe is the ligtht on the right hand side it is known to be a spirit, as it is on Ezgis side it can symbolise her death (as seen in the music video 'forgetting Mary'
-the photo looks to clean for the title 'broken dreams' it needs to have an element of darkness to it.

IDEA 2

AUDIENCE FEED BACK
-the darkness of Ezgi really gives the impression she is shadowing Dan
-the border also makes the photo look tighter and this reflects on the name 'broken dreams' as broken illustrates  pain and emotion.
-dan wearing white really enhances him as a character bring your attension to him first
-the broken dreams title slanted could be changed to straight so that it goes with the other text


OUR INSPIRATION FOR THE COLOURS


this florence and the machine album advert uses a variety of dark greens and brown. the idea of nature around her brings a sence of emotion. the white writting also stand out very well, so we have experimented with tese range of colours and the out come has been very effective.







FINAL after ammendments

we have edited the last few things on the digi pack 1. being the text in the top right panel the text as you could see covered  a large amount of the image, so we have thought of an idea to make the text curve up the tree, helping the text to flow better as well as not hiding the edited image.

feed back
-'the white coloured writing works well as you can see it clearly and the contrast looks good'

 this is a close up of the last panel edit, with the added text curved down the tree, a time consuming effort but looks really effective.


FINAL DIGI PACK :)
