CLOSED

The door was once ajar for flowing ideas and cracking contributions to the project,

I am deeply saddend to announce, however, that the group blog is firmly shut and closed for business.

Most certainly soon to be derelict and left to rot in the sordid world of the internet.

Evaluation Reflections

We chose to do our evaluation in a discussion format and film it. You can see these responses in the posts below and also on our individual blogs with reflections. We feel that it went really well, and a few of the points we wished to expand on have been done so on our individual blogs.

Copyright Infomation

We emailed the record company Visible Noise asing them if it was ok to use the song Lost Prophets - Start Something for educational purposes as we wanted to get permission to use the song. They, however, didn't get back to us and due to it passing the youtube copyright checks we came to the conclusion that they were ok with it.

Evaluation Question 4

Here are the full videos of our answers to Evaluation Question 4, with some photos of all the technology we used in our project below.

Cues for our evaluation

Here are some scans of notes we used as cues, to help us remember the key things we had to say in our evaluation, they proved useful, however, we sometimes got mixed up on points, or did them in a more freeform order, but I feel this didn't harm our evaluation too much.

Final Draft of the Myspace

Video + MySpace + Album Cover Links

Here are the videos, websites, and album covers, mentioned in our evaluation.

Every Time I Die - 'Wanderlust' : Where the idea of individual shots came from and vocalist walking down the corridor. Vocalist clothes also change when it moves to individual location. It is also mainly peformance with some concept thrown into the mix. Vocalist addresses audition as well.


Every Time I Die - Wanderlust on MUZU


Pantera - '5 Minutes Alone' : Lots of close ups and ECUs. Entirely performance based. Cut to beat and focuses on music. Dark lighting with spots on instruments. Cuts to instruments at important parts.



Muse - 'Dead Star' : Lots of instrument close ups. Dark lighting again. Focuses on music. Focus on guitar in opening riff.




Architects - 'Always' : Genre characteristics, energetic performance, headbanging, band setup and clothing. cut to the beat and quickly cut. Referenxced shots such as CU guitar and drums from side. Linked to person percentage of each member in video.



Architects - Always from Hopes Die Last on Vimeo.

Underoath - 'In Regards To Myself' : Inspiration behind the individual vocalist shots wiht stationary camera nad vocalist moving around room. Also darkly lit and same band setup.

In Regards To Myself - UnderOath

Disturbed1 | MySpace Video

Underoath - 'A Moment Suspended In Time' : Use of lyrics to inspire video. Words shown and cut to different members at different points. Mainly performance video with energy. Claustrophobic feel. Use of costume.




Alex Gaudino - 'Destination Calabria' : Lots of voyeuristic shots. Shows another genre and how ours is different. No instruments and not really about the music and more about the video content.





Madonna - 'Material Girl' : Star image motifs and intertextual references. Video focused on star image of Madonna and targets audience with Marilyn Monroe reference.



Muse - 'Uprising' - Link with single cover




MySpace

A Day To Remember - Unconventional MySpace look, more unique and professional looking, common today as people move away from MySpace
Set Your Goals - Very promotional, album cover, merch and video are all on show and clear to the viewer

Architects - Introduces the band individually and follows institutional conventions, such as showing the record label, endorsements and bookings

The Saturdays - Has a more scopophilic feel, with more emphasis on a celebrity personality and look. Bio + Pictures

Alexisonfire - Has a competition on the page, a fine example of viral marketing


Album Cover

International Superheroes of Hardcore - Takin It Ova - Strong visual theme, taken from title

Oh Sleeper - When I Am God - Dark, moody colours

Muse - Uprising Single Cover - Has common themes with Video - Teddybears

Peferred type of music genre:
Does the video look like a music video you would see on TV?
Has the video entertained you?
Can you describe the idea behind the video?
Do you think the video represents the type of genre we have chosen?
What music channel would you expect to see the video on?
What kind of music magazine would you expect to see the video reviewed in?

Do you have any critisisms of the music video (please be honest)?

Audience Feedback Screening

On Tuesday 8th December we are holding our audience feedback screening where people of our target audience (and possibly from outside our audience) can come and see our video. They will also carry out a questionnaire. Simon has also created a Facebook group in an attempt to let people know when and where it will be taking place.

MySpace

Photos can't look like they're in a classroom
Promotional info needs to stand out, different font? colour?
Video needs embedding

Font for the tracks appears jumbled
Nothing new, everything is on the myspace. - Maybe we could embed the YouTube where the MS Shots are and take those for the cover?
CD section could stand out more

FIRST DEMO OF THE MYSPACE NOW ONLINE

Hi guys, after mine and Ben's myspace meeting today, I went home and turned the design into a rough myspace page. Have a look at it whenever possible and feedback straight away so we can keep designing. I think it's pretty good :)

Note, it will only work perfectly on internet explorer due to some of the encoding, e.g. the pictures turning to colour when scrolled over only working on internet explorer.

Enjoy

BLK Feedback

Miss saw our sequence today and gave some very valuable feedback. The main concern was that behind a very convincing performance there is no idea or 'hook' to the music video.

However, with that being said she thought the roughness of it was like a big jam session and advised we play on that idea as it is somewhat a good one - 5 band members putting heart and soul in to their music and just rocking it out in a plain and simple room.

We agreed that the cutting of the video was for the most part spot on and instead we should look in detail more at the order of shots as it could do with some improving - the flow is spoilt a little bit in places because of this. It is however, a rough cut and not finished so we will definately spruce things up and make changes and improvements.

Group Meeting - Aftermath

We have decided the final time and location for the test shoot -
We have emailed our location to finalise the shoot this weekend, and have organised times with our actors
Our costumes have been finalised and its all being prepared for the weekend.
We are making headway into sorting out equipment and props for our shoot, Nick rang his dad.
We've compiled a final shot list
All in all a productive meeting

Test Shoot Footage

Some random assorted clips from our test shoot showing off a couple of angles we'll consider using again.

Group Meeting

A group meeting is now scheduled for P4+5 on Monday, onto lunch if needed.
We should:
Decide a final time for the test shoot
Finalise Test Shoot priorities and compile a list of shots to practice
Go over final shot list
Finalise costume

If anything else comes to mind, we will add it to this post in retrospect.

Test Shoot

We have decided to have another test shoot with the whole band, either in our school's great hall or drama block. We need to arrange a time and day according to when these locations are free and then we'll use our time to practice all our shots and the general look and feel of the band, and how their performance will be staged.

I'll update this post with the planned time when we've decided.

GROUP MEETING

Okay in order to have some sort of progress there will be a group meeting period 4 and 5 going in to lunch. If you are in school you need to attend as there is group decisions to be made, if not me and Nick will make them.

A TO'DO List

Due to the recent staleness of the group me and Nick have decided to do a to-do list!
We have put the list in order of priority (bold means done)

1. Decide on date of main shoot and re-shoot
2. Costume/band image
3. Test shoot arrangements (with actors?)
4. Shot List
5. Shooting schedule
6. Storyboarding
7. Prop list
8. Discussion on shooting
9. Responsibilities on shoot

If you can think of any more things to-do then add them to the list!

Marketing Campaign for Epic Journeys

The band Epic Journeys are looking to emulate the internet based success of the Arctic Monkeys and Lily Allen. From our research we have discovered both artists were originally based on internet sites (social networks) like myspace. However, Lily Allen has chosen to move towards a more credible way of advertising herself. She has started appearing on more reputable TV shows like Jonathan Ross and using a Twitter feed to let her fans know of her daily activities. She even had her own TV chat show for a while. The Arctic Monkeys are still heavily internet based using myspace and facebook to advertise their band and most of their other coverage being through magazines.

The appeal of myspace is the easy networking with fans, with the ability to upload music, videos, blogs as well as having tour listings and general info about the artist. This is now easy to do on facebook as well so most bands use both to get the best of both social networking audiences.

Our advertising campaign will incorporate mainly the converged media of gaming. We hope to get Epic Journey on the map through the use of their new hit single "World's Away" as the title track of the new action-adventure game Lego Indiana Jones 2 (tying in with the bands theme) and also on the new Fifa game to apply to a broader audience (here we have incorporated, gamers, children and sportsmen). Also the band will have a game on their myspace which when played will unlock various portions of the new album, giving the audience an exclusive listen to previously unreleased material. This is similar to the marketing campaign of MUSE for their recent single "United States of Eurasia" where portions of the song were hidden on USB sticks around the globe. The game will be a platformer where you travel through infinite locations, as the band do themselves in their new music video.

Another marketing strategy is a team up with Virgin Atlantic. As the band are heavily travel based, their song will be used for the company's new holiday adverts where they will promise to take you "World's Away". This will give publicity to the band and a long term partnership with a really really rich guy.

These marketing strategies will help advertise the bands image, music and myspce to gather a fan base worldwide.

Pitch Handout

Ben, Matt, Nick and Simon

Feedback from Pitch

After a very successful treatment and pitch to the class not much was said to improve upon. We had called our music video performance/concept based using Goodwins key music video theory and the class were a bit puzzled as to where the conept came in to it. We explained that the concept was about doing something, reaching for what you want in life. We explained that this is shown through performance as the energetic performance matches with the lyric 'Start Something'. We have also used feedback to make the decision to swap our vocalist actor. Nick who was originally on vocals in now on guitar and Simon is now lead vocals. It was also mentioned that we needed a clearer structure for the music video. Which is something we need to discuss in our next group meeting.

Muse - Dead Star

Another Muse song, even more weird and wondeful instrument shots. 0.07, 0.09, 0.42 and 2.41 are all very claustrophobic and different. Also, interestingly it only cost 50 pounds to make. I'll stop posting Muse videos soon, but I'm on a roll!

Muse - Hyper Music

Great video, with some energetic camera movement and great close ups which make the feel claustrophobic even in the big room. Nice inspiration. Makes the lack of variety not so noticable. Enjoy!

Cancer Bats - Deathsmarch

I stumbled across this video for Cancer Bat's 'Deathsmarch' on the TV and thought that we could gain a lot from it. There are a lot of CU instrument shots we can reference and the mise-en-scene is similar to ours. I believe it will be wise to use some of the shots here. Give it a good watch anyway.

Cancer Bats - Deathsmarch

Blue Version

I decided to spruce up the cover by adding some blue and use Nick's font by warping around the waves. I'm not too sure about this effect though, but let me know if you think its an improvement.

Lighting Expenses

Here below are links to the lighting equipment that we would ideally like to buy. We would not order on the internet, but instead go to Enfield for a shopping maybe with a lovely lunch interval.

Tattoo Sleeves

Here is a link to an ebay seller who retailing at a reasonable 4 tattoo sleeves at £12. We would like so very much to purchase these said sleeves with a portion of our designated budget in addition to some awe inspiring strobe lighting components.

We would choose the designs: T6, T8, T14 and T18.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/fake-tattoo-sleeve-stocking-temporary-fancy-dress-fun_W0QQitemZ200379777397QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Health_Beauty_Tattoos_BodyArt_SM?hash=item2ea790c175&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

Group Meeting today

Other than the final pitch being complete, thought we should put down our conversation about the opening.

We decided today on a few points for the opening:

-The lead guitar lick is very quiet at first so it would be stupid to focus on this guitar only when it's playing as it's not a main focus point. Instead we will use lots of arcs and pans to create a real sense of atmosphere and mise en scene, and also to introduce the different band members and their set up.

-The possibility of the vocalist coming and joining the band rather than starting with them. We have 40 seconds to play with so we can make a continuity sequence of him entering the room and walking towards the band. We thought maybe use lots of LA and tracks making use of our lighting to give the vocalist a sense of enigma, making the viewer intrigued to know who it is.

-During the brief 10 second or so period before the song drops (00:41) we thought we could really mess about with the editing and do lots of weird shots that ignore continuity to match the record scratches in the song. For example we might play around with the ordering of the frames and possibly reverse them to represent the scratching and pulling back of a record when being used on decks.

Can't remember anything else specific we discussed, but I'm sure during the test shoot we can give some stuff a blast :)

Final Group Treatment for the pitch!

The video will consist of three main sets of shots. One in a plain, clean space with the band all dressed in dark clothes, the next in a really messy workspace with very harsh lighting and strobes, and finally 5 individual claustrophobic band member shots. The video will be all performance and concept.

Genre Conventions

Hard Rock. Band layout (Vocalist, 2 guitars, bass, drums), distorted guitars (heavier sound in comparison to acoustic instruments), screaming and clean vocals (screaming adds t3h br00t4lz to the music), fast drums, use of double pedal in the drums, breakdown (slower section with very heavy feel, usually riff based).

Costume/Clothing. (baggy/straight cut jeans and shirts/quite plain/bit grunge/lots of black) Hair cuts (Medium length, styled). Generally dark colours associated with the style of the music (compliments) Generally male band members, young adults.

Live performance, electric guitars (Ibanez, ESP, Jackson, Gibson - these makes have specific tone and look for the music), drums (complicated set up, double pedal, lots of cymbals), electric bass (sometimes keyboard), vocalist as an individual member (not often playing instrument as well). Big equipment (amp stacks).


Audience Profile:

Age : mid teens to young adult (20s). Gender : mixed bag, males for genre (fans of heavy music), girls for sex appeal (apparently hot band). Clothing style, similar to that of the band. Music taste (similar bands e.g. Funeral For a Friend, The Blackout) (generally wider music taste, Lostprophets a half way point between Rock bands and Heavier music. Means quite varied crowd).


Concept

We are challenging conventions by ignoring the lyrics for our concept. Instead we are basing our concept around the performance and the music itself. To achieve this we are using our locations, lighting, editing, and shooting style to visually show the contrasts between the sections in the song. Our only reference back the lyrics is the title “Start Something” which represents the energy that our performance will give.
Iconography - We will use lots of tight camera angles to create visual hooks through out and stick close to our genre conventions. (references : Always, Writing on the Walls/still shots from other videos)

Location BREAKDOWN

The locations will be flicked between to show the contrast in song sections. The verses have quite a pop-punky positive feel to them while the chorus is quite heavy and almost like a beatdown.


The Plain location
The band will be performing in stage layout (drummer centre back, vocalist centre front, guitarists and bass in between). We will have a wide angle and individual band shots here that we will cut between to show a lively and energetic performance. There will be more arcs and pans and slower camera movement to contrast with the messy section.

The lighting, 8 floor lights positioned around the band. Each member has one and the rest are positioned around props (perhaps 3 under drums for extreme lighting). 2 Spot-lights from the side pointing at a slight downwards angle to contrast with the beams of light going up from the floor. There will be calm strobe lighting to add an extra dimension from the back of the band.

The band will be wearing dark colours to contrast the plain room. The lead vocalist will do all singing and the guitarists will do the backing vocals and screaming. Our main focus will be on movement and quite normal camera angles but rarely ever still shots (apart from the wide angle).


The Messy location
This room will be more full lit (lighter than upstairs) with more intense strobe lighting. The band will be less organised and more cluttered, moving all over the place to make the most of the weird equally cluttered location. A lot tighter, more use of handheld (almost all). There will be no wide shot, but lots of individual MS and above of each member to cut between. The band will still be united, and close together, but performing in a less uniformed, more energetic manner. Most of this will come together in the edit and the way we choose to cut it.


Individual Shots
Band separated in different rooms. Isolated performances with a claustrophobic feel. This will be achieved through CU camera work using HA and LA with a lot of movement. The image will be given a slight distort (possibly through a fish eye lens tool in post production) to vary it from the rest of the video. The lighting will be very extreme. It will light up specific parts of the band member leaving the rest of the room in darkness creating a solitary feel and an air of mystery. We will achieve this hopefully through the use of the cameras own backlight (TEST SHOOT) but we may have to resort to a dim spotlight.

Band Set Ups

Looking at a multitude of videos from the genre and taking our location in mind, there are quite a few band set ups we could use in our final video. We have three main band set ups in mind at our location, one downstairs, in any configuration that we'll decide after our test shoot. We'll aim for a really edgy set up downstairs to compliment the messy, cluttered environment downstairs.



We are envisaging something a bit different like this set up in the video for Bloodmeat by Protest the Hero

Upstairs, our band will perform in a standard circle facing outwards from the middle of the room. However, due to the presence of some rather exciting partition walls the band members will be separated, with some long arc shots rotating around the band. Truly exciting stuff.

Here's a shockingly bad animation I whipped up in a few minutes to illustrate what I mean. It probably won't work very well at doing that.

Also, between the two locations we may include another band set up where the band members are in different rooms, including this lovely lift.

Mise en Scene Referencing

There are two videos that I have mentioned a lot over the course of this project for inspiration and I still feel that they are perfect for our idea.


The first is Always by Architects. The performance is in a plain white room and is very open. The band are free to move around and the shooting is very mobile, making every shot interesting to watch. There are some absolutely fantastic angles that I want to duplicate in our project that me and Simon have put in our blog posts about Guitar and Drum stills.


The other is Writing on the Walls by UnderOath. This performance is a complete contrast as the band are crammed into this tiny basement, wearing very dark clothes and there is strobe lighting. It is not particularly strong but more the fact that it creates an air of mystery in the room (maybe I'll rephrase that for the pitch but I was just watching Poirot). All the band shots I THINK (double underline *crosses fingers*) with a fish eye lens at really weird angles and the band members are all very close to each other in this confined space.

I want to use both these concepts in our video to go along with my treatment for Start Something, where the more poppy bits of the track are shown in the clean white and quite large room, whereas the heavier parts are shown to contrast through the sudden claustrophobia and change in shooting style. These powerful mise en scene changes will provide very different performances and help to carry out our concept of energy and its illustration through performance.

Guitar Stills

Here are some of my favourite stills from Music Videos for guitars. They are from the videos "Always - Architects" and "Writing on the Walls - UnderOath".

1. ECU fret and bridge, canted angle (Architects)
2. 2-shot, fish eye lens, very claustrophobic and weird angle (UnderOath)
2. MS, amp in background to show off bands equipment (Architects)

Drums Stills

Here some shots of drummers that we can also take inspiration from:

Light Referencing Ideas

I'm going to look in to different lighting styles within this post, and learn about how lighting creates a feel and a mood in music video. The direction we want to go with the style of our music video can be decided tomorrow when we have a meeting. The first set are of Desaturated and Stylized lighting whereas the second set are Saturated and Colourful.
