BBK: Individual Contribution

  • Over the past week we have been working towards editing our rough cut on Adobe Premiere Software, with the other group members we have organized our footage in to shot and take numbers before importing it into the editing software. We then dragged out footage into a timeline organizing the order and cutting rate of the footage making sure that the cutting rate matches the rhythm of the music.
  • We had some issues with the capabilities of the software as the amount of footage and layers of media we had made some faster areas of cutting rate to lag. However we have been able to over come these issues and have now fully placed all the footage we have and are awaiting small section of footage that will be filmed on Friday the 28th of November.
  • This shoot has been postponed due to weather conditions and we have been waiting for a relevant event to host this scene as it requires a crowd. I have been organizing this shoot this week for the Christmas Lights in Sevenoaks making sure each member of the group will be able to get transport there and back and select the equipment and making sure we know what we are doing in preparation for the shoot.
  • Along with this we have been designing and developing initial ideas for print work, this has been a majority group task as we wanted to develop a coherent band image across each of our print pieces. However we have each been able to produce our own ideas. My input into the digipak for our single were the inner panels I felt that a shot we were using in our video accurately represented the themes of the song and the symmetry of the video displaying the two characters sitting either side of a tree through a binocular view.  This image not only represents a motif from the video but allows the two panels to flow together.
  • On the digipak images we have been doing initial colour planning using PowerPoint image effects experimenting with warmth and colour enhancement to reflect the colour scheme within the video. Once we have decided upon what sort of colours we want that will both reflect the video and the bands star image we will further develop them using Adobe Photoshop. 
  •  Now that we have completed the majority of the video we have started working with colour manipulation in order to separate the two realities of the protagonist. We have been saturating the 'reality 'sequences using Colour Balance (Hue) effects making the shots both darker and lacking in colour to connote a lifelessness and a absence of vibrancy.
