27/11/2013 Final Filming Day

2.30pm: Collected all equipment from various locations
3.10pm: Took equipment into school filming area
3.20pm: Set up set began filming 
6.30pm: Finished filming began packing away and returned home to start editing

Changes to filming techniques etc.

In the draft video we didn't use a wide range of shots or cuts. for example we only had long shots of the whole band or a variety of close ups focusing on just one member, for our final shoot we need to add more mid range shots and pans. Also when editing we need to cut between shots using fades and zooms etc. Other improvements that I think we could make is to have more artificial lighting to make it look a lot more professional. The band members to to be changed and need to actually know how to play the drums/guitar as in the draft it is very obvious that they do not know how to play.

Main Inspiration for Digipak/Poster









Simplistic and minimalistic CD covers and posters which all have images to represent the band. This convention in a poster or CD cover i think works really well if the image can get so well known to represent a certain band. The reason i have done my digipak and poster in this simplistic style as i feel it suits my indie band and the image which was created also could become popular enough that no writing on a poster/advertisement/CD cover is necessary. If a simple image is to become so well known and represents a band i think this is a huge achievement for the band and i feel this kind of style on a digipak and poster is more affective than other forms and styles.
