we have finshed the music video a few weeks ago and finished it in a scrape for time as we have hardly any effects and the video is really long im glad to have finshed the project and im really happy with the project we have just started which is called the project and i based on my idea of natural beauty 
 
this week has been a bit of a rush to get all the work done we didn't quite finish but we did get quite far we have filmed everything and have started on final cut pro .Our colour changing pictures seem to be looking great and although we are under a lot of pressure to finish its all quite fun
 
filming ...This week we have been filming which took quite a while as we needed different shots and im quite happy with how they have turned out but we could use with just a little bit more .

color changing
we are using a color changing effect on our images during the video the images will flick over really quite fast which we think is going to look really cool

we have now lost reece as part of the team ...this is quite hard because there is now only six of us left 4 girls and 2 boys .The group seems to be getting smaller and smaller since we already lost kismet and natasha .but people leaving had a big effect o
 
I HAVE FOUND IT REALLY HARD TRYING TO CATCH UP WITH MY GROUP AFTER IVE JUST HAVE MY EXAM AND IM WORRYING ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF TIME WE HAVE LEFT FOR OUR MUSIC VIDEO.WE HAVE QUITE A FEW THINGS WE NEED TO DO LIKE FIND PEOPLE TO PHOTOGRAPH , FINSIH EDITING THE MUSIC , FILM, EDIT , EVALUATE  THERES QUITE A BIT TOO DO IN SUCH LITTLE TIME BUT I THINK IF I TRY HARD ENOUGH I MAY BE ABLE TO DO IT
 
THIS WEEK THE CLEANER THREW OUT ALL OUR PUPPETS WHICH LEFT US WITH A MAJOR PROBLEM ......BUT WORKING TO TOGETHER AS A GROUP HAS HELPED US TO COME UP WITH A NEW SONG WHICH IS KATE NASH MOUTH WASH AND A HOLE NEW IDEA OF USING PHOTOGRAPHS AND LIVE PERFORMANCES :)
 
THE NEW IDEA
i knew i want my music video to be different so i have made the choice to make my music video a shadow puppet video which i think is quite rare.
REASEARCH
we have looked a few shadow puppet videos but there are not many , one i reallyed liked would be lenka trouble is a friend
PUPPET MAKING
we have been making out puppets using cardboard wooden skewers and sticky tape
they have been quite a challenge and they take a very long time to make but we found a few templetes online which we then us
COMPLETED ?
we will have soon finished making all the puppets and the props for the scene .its been hard work going from class to class to find everything we need but i think its way worth it .
 
THE START OF THE MUSIC VIDEO PROJECT
we have started a new music video project and i have been put with jack and erica which is diiferent from the people i would normally work with. we have started doing our research on old gcse music videos which i have found quite interesting one i really liked was fix up look sharp but i noticed something they were all pretty similar and i knew from that moment i didnt want mine to be the same
STORY BOARD
we picked our song which is lenka the show .The song is really wacky and funky with unusual voice which makes the song more catchy and stand out .we created a story board for our music videos .We wanted to create a tim burton kinda world so that is would fit with the music we also looked at the original music video and we decided we wanted to make it as different as possible.We thought of using story like alice in the wonder land and wizard of scene to go with the story of the music video .we wanted to make it so it looks like a dream  so we have scenes of her waking up and going to sleep .
 
we visited sky for the day we started with a small talk to introduce us to sky were a man who used to work for BBC three spoke to us . We then went to the sky movies department which was very interesting we went through  was sky movies do although i knew a lot of it because i had  sky at home .The man we was working with explained things really well and then show us some of the makings of avatar which was really cool because i love that movie .we then spoke to one of the boss's of the sky movies department who spoke to us about what her job is and where she gets to travel and who she gets to meet which was pretty amazing. The second half of the day was looking at sky going 3D which i also thought was pretty cool ,so we looked at some 3D TV and some programs  and then we made little presentations in groups to explain what we think should be made in 3D e.g. music videos and movies or who would the target  audience be . the day was fun and i enjoyed meeting new people very much .

we all took part in a dance lesson which was really fun because we learnt the friller dance ...i really enjoyed this because it was something we hadnt done before and it was creativity and i tend to love anything to do with being create. i also thought the boys in the class were rather good :) i would love to have a few more dance lessons
 
 
i have now done my poster and my radio ad now all i feel i need to do it evaluate and write about the sky visit .i have really enjoyed this topic allthough i didnt find it that creative we just used apple macs all the time i wouldnt say this was the best unit but it hasn't been  too bad .
