costuming







For our anciliary and the actual filming of our video we made sure that the costumes fitted in well with the genre of the video that we were filming. Thease are the pictures of a few of the cotumes used in our filming and anciliary tasks.

Audience feedback


We have created a facebook page for the audience feedback. This page includes a rough cut of our filming which enables the audicnce to look at the video and give us feedback on what they think that we can improve. we uploaded our video of our rough cut in order to see what our audience would like us to change

ANCILARY TASKS


We looked at other posters that represent artists and company's, we found that they connotate something to do with the title and picture. This add for 'got milk' involves a celebrity for endorsement, it also involves the milk which encorporates the product trying to be sold and the celebrity endorsing it. we can take ideas from this to imporve our song and the group itself. For our song we can endorse it by including the word 'work' into our product and have differant aspects of work in the picture.

We have decided to do the work shoot and incorporate the roles into the picture, this may include a police officer, builder ect. This just like the 'got milk' campaige speaks in pictures rather that words.

Editing of rough cuts

Using the MACS we made a rough cut of the dance routine and performance combined. by doing this we are able to really test out what worked and what we could improve. We used a variety of differant shots to create our video and make it suitable for our target audience. After completing our rough cut we uploaded it to facebook in order to see what feedback we get.

ANCILARY TASKS

Costume Plans


In our group we have had discusions into what costumes that we will be wearing and changing into through out the performance on our music video.

We have decided that we will be using a colour scheme to our clothes in the video, therefore in some preformances we will be wearing black and have our hair and makeup to go with the clothes that we are wearing. We have also discussed that we will be wearing coloured dresses in one scene rather than the black ones all the way through.

Teacher Feedback

1) I think that you need to have a look at a few more music videos from similar artists:
The Spice Girls
Girls Aloud
And actually textually analyse the videos looking at:
Mise en scene
Editing
Sound
Camera shots/angles/movement.
2) You need to make sure that you have records of the discussions that you have had with your group about costume decisions

Risk Assessemnt

Order to plan and create our video to the highest and safest standard, we must look and asess the risks in our plan and music video videoing.
One risk that must be taken into consideration is that whilst we are filming on the zebra crossing we must protect the equiptment and the camera from the rain, so therefore we must look at the ricks and asses it. another wish is to make sure that we dont get hit by a car whilst filing so we must have a clear view of the road to make sure that this will not happen.
Another risk is that when we are filming and doing tracking shots we must make sure that the wire is not on the floor for someone to trip over, we over came this by having one of the team hold up the wire as we walked so no one would fall over it. Oter risks include slipping over, falling down the stairs and falling over in the high heels that we are wearing.
One of the locations that we filmed in was a bloc of concrete stairs which meant that we had to be very careful when we flimed on the stairs that we didnt trip or that it wasnt raining so that the handle bar would be slippery.
