How successful do you think your blog details the research, planning and construction stages of your music video?
i think the research section of our music video is top notch as i have done thorough research looking in different types of artists and their fan base. this has set me up to having a creative mindset of how me and my group constructed our artists 'Melz' and 'Joez'
Planning is great because our finished looks exactly how we want it to be suggesting we take a lot of time and effort to visualise how the music video is going to produced and how it will be percieved from the audience which i'm proud to say that we played terrificly. Thus we finished the music video in no time at all.
The production/construction of our music video is brilliant because we worked effienciently with the time and managed to finish constructing our music video well before the deadline which is amazing.
My individual blogging right now is 68 which i'm pretty happy about, this is becuase i'm to produced 100 quality blogs by the time my coursework is due therefore I plan on doing daily blogs.

Outline of improvements needed before deadline
We showed Louisa and Marisa (my media teachers) the footage of our latest music video. They suggested that we should improve on:
The structure of our video; they said it was evident that we just put the all the clips on adobe premier and just cut it whenever we heard the beat. Whereas we should of structured with day scenes first and then add the night scenes afterwards which actually makes it visually better so we are appreciative that our teachers told us that comments. Thanks.
What me and my group are going to do before the final deadline:
For the first intro we're going to show establishing shots (day ones) in the beginning. As well as use cameos that are in the day aswell.
We decided to use day scenes until the flicker is heard where on the last beat on the flicker, we will then transition to the night scene.

Rough Cut !
Here is our rough cut of 'Melz X Joez - What Do You Want From Me from their Upcoming album !
Filming reflection (Canary Wharf)
We decided to film in canary wharf because the estate had put up christmas lights and location had begun to look quite appealing. however we found out that we didn't actually have permission to film in between the buildings. so we had to find somewhere quite and not get any company names in the footage.
After we reviewed our footage we found that there was very little movement and the camera was very shaken. To improve this we need to make shots that had a lot more speed in the tracking and had better framing. From our last filming session we needed to improve the lighting, so we used the Top Light on the camera, mainly because the light was white and was easier to focus on the artists.
The audience and marketing campaign is centred around the audience being able to relate and be close to the artists, so we used a range of medium and close up shots to produce this relationship between artist and audience.
I filmed this because we were alternating in turns when it came to filming, directing, and sound management. I tired to incorporate all types of movement walking back and forward to make the end product interesting. although it was cold I tried my hardest to make sure that the camera was focused and was steady.
As we were location hunting we stumbled onto a building that was lit up with blue lights, we thought that this was a perfect back drop and the area was well lit. Also we had a lot more ground to film on so we were able to move around more without going against the risk assessment criteria.

Filming (Millennium Bridge)
During this filming session, mel and Joseph performed the song underneath the bridge. This was mainly because we were all afraid of heights and we didn't want to sacrifice anything like damaging the camera or other people on the bridge as it was also quite busy.
Curtis was in charge of the filming, and I (Bilal) did lighting and Music. My job was to manage the sound and placement of the music so the camera and performers were able to pick up the music.
Overall I performed this task quite well and was efficient with the music, to improve I would put the lighting in a more useful position, because after we reviewed the footage we found that there was parts of it where Mel wasn't visible in the shot because of the lack of lighting, and other parts where there was too much glear in the glasses prop.
These are my targets for the next filming session
