First and Second Day of Filming

On the first day we went to London to visit several places which would feature in our music video. During this we filmed in several spots that were famous in London, we got round to most of them which made it a very long day. We took our equipment and filmed throughout our whole journey to and from London. I filmed most of the video in a first person angle of Arsena and Tanya, which was a of fun for all of us as we got to experience London. Luckily the weather was good which fit the mood of out music video perfectly.

On the Second on filming we went to our school's drama room to film the band scenes. We got instruments from the music rooms and started filming. We played our song from a phone and I began filming with the dolly. This room had a black background and lighting which help us achieve a professional setting for this scene.

Second Day of Editing


On the second day of editing we continued to add more footage of what we shot. This included the band scene which we added between the location shots. Also these clips were not long as we didn't want to slow down our fast paced song. This concluded our editing and we were satisfied with the results.

Constructing the Advert & Digipack

To create the advert I used Photoshop in order to manipulate the pictures I took previously in our band photoshoot. To do this I used tools to add the band name, the ratings and logos. I copied images from the internet and pasted them into our advert to make it look more credible. I edited the photo to make it look more eye catching and attractive to potential audiences. To solidify all the work I merges all the layers I created together so they wouldn't move.













In order to make the digipak I used Photoshop again. This time I had to edit individual pictures separately so it would become one final digipak. I edited the contrast and saturation of the photos and added effects so that it would look like a real band's album cover. To make it seem more realistic I added small things found on real albums such as a barcode,  tracklist, cd print and spine.
