Music video pre-production

  1)  Music video treatment You may already have a finished music video treatment from your summer project and/or preliminary exercise - definitely use or develop that if it works with your project.  However, you may need to update your treatment or even change it completely now you have finished your preliminary exercise. The  original example from the summer for music video treatments can be found here . Scene 1: Opening shot of Obaida in the toilets looking at himself in the mirror. Putting on his boxing gloves and shoes (sponsorship) looks a bit anxious and afraid from the looks on his face.   Scene 2: Him coming out the toilets and getting into the ring. About to fight his opponent a big guy who is twice his size.  Scene 3: Obaida and his opponent start fighting. Obaida losing the match getting beaten up badly some spit comes flying out from his mouth. Scene 4: Obaida loses the match and gets knocked out. After the match everyone begins talking and whispering behind his back talki

Preliminary exercise learner response

  1) Type up your teacher's feedback   in full  plus a summary of the comments you received from other students in the class. Teachers feedback Good preliminary exercise – 42 seconds and some really nice shots in there. Camerawork is a strength – some nice framing and camera movement. Perhaps a little more movement could work since it’s a music video? Or perhaps slightly pacier editing in places? Generally the pace is good though. Location and weather (too sunny!) perhaps hold this back a little? I wonder if effects could help with this. Did you try slow motion or black and white? You definitely need another scene / location / performance element for the full video. Needed brand identity of your artist in there – that was part of the brief for the preliminary exercise. Student feedback WWW * I like the camera movement and angles. * Good shot angles/ varieties. * Good natural lighting * Good variety of shots/ Close-ups were good. * Good acting. * Liked the shadow shot/ Liked match o

Preliminary exercise: Research and planning

Image
  1) State the  song  you have chosen for your preliminary exercise. The Script - Hall of Fame ft. will.i.am 2) Choose at least  three  music videos similar to your concept and watch a clip or more from each.  Make  bullet-point notes  on everything you watch, commenting on camerawork, editing and mise-en-scene. Rocky III • Eye of the Tiger • Survivor   * The editing of this music video has the same feel as the one in Hall of Fame due to the match on action when the beat drops. *The use of the mise-en-scene such as the boxing ring and boxing gloves shows a relation to the Hall of Fame narrative as their music video is partly focused (along with other different narratives) on two boxers fighting and in this music video it shows off that same narrative. Imagine Dragons - Believer * Switches from the visuals  to the instruments itself. * Shows the narrative first before the music artists. Ed Sheeran - Shape of You *Same narrative in music video such as the use of the boxing gloves and set

Media Paper 2 learner response

  Y12 exam - Media Paper 2: Learner response Create a new blogpost on your Media  Coursework blog  called ' Media Paper 2 learner response ' and work through the following tasks: 1) Type up your feedback in full (you do not need to write mark/grade if you do not wish to).  WWW: This is a very impressive assessment: top level for Q1 and some excellent points in Q2. EBI: You now need to add the clarity and question focus for Q2. The opening about Walter Presents didn't really answer the question you needed more focus on Hall. We will practice this! Total: 20 = C  2) Read  the mark scheme for this exam carefully , paying particular attention to the 'indicative content' for each question. Firstly, focus on the unseen question and identify  two  aspects of the poster that you could have written about in your answer. Q1 * The representation of youth as diverse in terms of gender and race   * The link between genre and stereotypes – the representation of victim in the thri

Ignite presentation learner response

  1) Type up your feedback   in full   including the ratings out of five for each of the categories.  Research (through presentation and blog) - 5 Music video/ magazine concept - 4 Language: terminology and theory - 3 Representations - 3 Audience and Industry - 3 Delivery - 3 Total out of 30 - 21 *Nice introduction that lays out plan for presentation. *Clear justification for use of song and then quite detailed outline of narrative. Narrative disruption is clear but perhaps needs a bit more depth. *Matching lyrics to images a good music video convention but I'm not sure there is 3 minutes worth of shot/ narrative here.  *Performance element will help this. *What is the significance of taking the book? *Is there danger of narrative becoming repetitive? *Perhaps lack of slide content/ rehearsed in terms of timing and delivery. *Music magazine needs to be original- one to address with statement of intent.  *Good to see some theory - audience, representation. You'll want some more
