Diary 27/02/2013

These are my final music video tweaks that I want to address before the final submission date. I have worked so long and hard on it now that I need it to be as good as possible to get the grade I feel I deserve.

FINAL MUSIC VIDEO TWEAKS

1. Light at beginning needs to be all white.

2. Cutting used at the beginning needs to be duplicated for the train station with Nick.

3. Opacity level switch has affected visibility of Narrative – It makes them darker? Band overpower them as the performance is darker.

4. Ruby walking through park – Cut better, Make footage BLACK AND WHITE and possibly contrast 0.2

5. Second smashing sequence needs to be BLACK AND WHITE and contrast possibly 0.2

6. Ruby + Nick walking together on grass – Cut better (B+W is perfect)

7. Final clip needs to fade to Black and White faster.

Diary 05/02/13

I am lucky enough to be one of 500 fans to posses a ticket to their intimate gig in their home country; Wales.
I am going to use this opportunity to get some pictures of the band and see how they act in an environment full of die-hard fans. I will also keep an eye on their personalities on stage, how they carry themselves, and the type of outfit they wear and how they wear it in conjunction with their style.

Music Video Research

This is 'Bullet For My Valentine's' brand new music video and it's EXACTLY what I'm aiming for myself with a narrative using the main band member and also a performance from the band themselves.

Research Into 'Bullet For My Valentine' in Magazines

This is a Prezi with pictures and text that analyse 'Bullet For My Valentine', from their outfits to their body language. This, I thought, would be useful for when I come to make my own digipak and could help guide me towards the photos I want to take to get a certain effect from the viewer.
