Ancillary Tasks...

We had thought we were going to do a magazine cover and a CD album cover. I had researched the magazines on P!NK for this purpose, but also to help us see which audience was best suited to our project. Today we decided that due to the digital influence in our media project, it would be a better idea to do a webpage as it will also link better with the CD album cover, we can promote the website on the cover. Another benefit is the the distribution of magazines means the magazine cover would only be in circulation for a week or so, with the website it can be developed and continuous, meaning audience numbers will grow and more people are likely to come across it on the web, as they may not choose to buy the particular magazine we design.

Footage....

Today we have FINALLY finished making all our footage black and white and deleting all the audio. We have three lots of footage and it took us around three lessons to make all of it black and white as we had to wait for the mac to render it. We also spent a few lessons editing out the bits of footage that hadn't gone to plan or that we didn't think would be good for us to use. After this lesson (Fri 10/12) we can then spend next week editing our footage into a rough draft for our final piece.

Narrative idea....

We need a solution to link all our individual footage together as we are in danger of it looking eclectic. I have come up with the idea of individual narrative clips for each of our actors. We were always interested in close up of eyes either happy or sad, as this was quite a popular technique in some of the similar music videos we researched. I thought if we filmed a close-up of happy eyes and sad eyes for each actor and this would then coincide with the happy and sad memories of each of their relationships, when the camera zooms out. In between the zoom in and zoom out would be a fade to black. Inspiration for this could be Just a dream - Nelly, which is also a song about relationships.

What's happening today...

We are making sure our footage is ready to edit into our final piece we need to discuss our final piece in more depth, so we can make a detailed plan and know where we are in the editing process.

Deadlines....

Today we have been told that by the end of this term we need to have a 'rough draft' in our timeline. This will include all footage complete e.g. filming and stills. We need to have some editing so we know at what point we are at when we come back in the new year.

Magazine research...

Just like her music genre, P!NK swings in and out of many different audiences, this is shown in her promotion and PR as well. P!NK has been on the cover of many different magazines ranging from 'Seventeen' which is aimed mostly at young teenage girls, to 'Rave' magazine aimed at a slightly older audience and both males and females. She is also promoted all over the world, being most popular in the U.S. and the U.K, but also Spain and other countries.
