Another up-dated draft of the front cover of my Digipak!


I decided to make the image of me and Beth more darker so that the image constrasted more effectively with the picture of the band above them. I have asked my working partner Abbas and he thinks that this example of the digipak cover is much more effective than the other one I produced.

Draft of the front cover of my digipak!

This is what I have created for the front cover of my digipak using Photoshop. I thought it would be effective to have the band in a torn edges style - high contrast black and white image and then me and my rival in colour so we stand out to the audience. I have used the contrast of black and white for my digipak as the colours associate with the genre of rock and both the colours effectively contrast well together. The colours also relate to the narrative of my music video. For example, black associating with darkness/sadness which is portrayed at the beginning of the video and white associating with happiness and success which is portrayed at the end of the video.

Pictures going to be taken tomorrow for print products!

My magazine advertisement is well on the way to being completed. I just need now to take several pictures of me and my co-star actor, Bethany Simpson so I can use the photos for both the magazine advertisement and Digipak. I am going to take various shots of us back-to-back and from different angles tomorrow night as I have arranged for her to come round my house. When the pictures have being took, on Mondays lesson next week I am going to use the photo on my magazine advertisement and then hopefully have it completed by the end of the week with several feedback off my teacher.

Lost footage has all been shot!

Early friday morning, I and Abbas had to go down to Maiden castle again where the running track is to film little parts to our final race scene as last week we lost some of the footage unexpectedly. The only bits that were lost was when I tripped during the race and where I overtake my competition with winning the race at the end. As these were crucial scenes for the innovation of our music video, we took more shots than we did last week to make sure we have a big choice to choose from. All the filming is finished now and Mr Earl is letting us this week to finish off the editing as he understood how we lost our footage and how slow the adobe premier pro software is as the software unfortunately keeps crashing. Hopefully, this week we wont have any difficulties with using the adobe premier pro.
