Other Rough Sections of my Storyboard

Below are images of my story board that I designed before filming so I had a clear guideline of what I wanted to do. They are no where near as neat and understandable as the ones previously uploaded as I only needed them as a guide and it would have taken far too long to print out an image for each shot.

Digipack research

Looking at a few special edition digipacks I have gathered that what makes them "special" is that they have a bonus disc with extra songs on. For instance demos or acoustic versions of songs, DVDs alongside the CD containing videos for the songs or behind the scenes of recording, lyric booklets, posters or even a computer disk with online special offers.

Below are examples of Special Edition album releases;
Florence and the Machine - Ceremonials
Special Edition album £13.99
2 CD Deluxe Edition - Bonus Tracks

Coldplay - Mylo Xyloto
Album available for £8.99
Art cards available separate also for £8.99

Lady GaGa - Fame Monster
2 CD Deluxe Edition £4.99 - Bonus Tracks (Price is so low because it was released in 2009)
Rolling Stones - Some Girls
2 CD Deluxe Edition £11.99 - Bonus Tracks

I have decided that my digipack will be "special" because it will contain a second disk with bonus track on.
I know have to think of track names and draft some designs.

Back to School

We are now back at school and in our first media lesson of the week. Although I've completely forgot to bring the cameras with my footage on so I am unable to upload my footage today. Although I thought I could make a start on researching digi packs and getting an idea of how I could make mine look.

How Filming Went

Todays filming started of really well and we seemed to get through half of the song no problem. But as the afternoon went on the make up alterations, props and location changes took up time and when it came to filming the last scene, (a minute long and will show various shots of a room being trashed) the camera crashed and I had ten minutes to shoot everything in. I had to switch cameras which may cause definition differences when editing but I managed to get a few shots that may be suitable. I will most likely have to take more shots to fill my video or improve it but I will arrange this when I have looked at all my footage next week so I know exactly what I want and need.Overall the filming went ok, I just hope the shits look as effective when watching them back as they did today. I'd like to thank Stacey for being so patient and helping be out and also Rachel who helped out with props and adjusting lighting.

Preparation For Filming

As the filming day is tomorrow I have done some final checks to make sure the room works with lighting, spot lights and space. All is good although I have now been informed that I can only use the room tomorrow as It wont be empty for my second filming day which is Saturday. This causes a few problems as I don't feel confident that I will get all filming done tomorrow in five hours. I also now have to rush tonight to try and story board the rest of my video to make sure I can refer back to it to get things shot quickly and efficiently tomorrow. I have still arranged for us to film on Saturday as I can get shots that don't need an empty room and also shots that I may decide I need after Tuesday.
Stacey is arriving at 10am tomorrow morning so we can get her outfit on and sewn with the extra fabric i have bought and also get make up done. This will take about an hour so we will hopefully start filming at 11am. I have given Stacey a brief of how I'd like her hair and asked her to do it before she arrives as this will save time and she knows her hair and can probably style it better than me.

My main task for the rest of the night now is story boarding as much of my video as I can.

Story Boarding

These are the story boards for what I have done so far. I am hoping to story board other sections of my video as soon as possible.



Story Board

I have now re done the story board sections with a larger layout, more information and also pictures. I attempted to scan it into my computer earlier tonight but was having troubles with the scanner so this will be fixed tomorrow and the images of my story board will be uploaded tomorrow.
