15th October's Lesson

Today we planned our big day of filming of the party/gig with the band playing because we felt that we really needed to get this sorted because it's very important and will take up the majority of our video. We knew already that we would be using the bigger hall at the Totton and Eling Community Centre because they have a stage and a large capacity to fit people in. Our main issue was the date to hold it because the band's singer only recently got back to England and they need a little time to practice, we also needed to make it a day that a large amount of people would be available and that all members of our group could make as well. So to give the band a little time to practice we thought that the first friday of November (which is the 5th) would hopefully give us enough time to then edit everything after as long as we work hard and keep organised.

Also in today's lesson Donne showed us some examples of Digi Packs which is one of things we will be creating individually as an ancillary task. It has to include a front and back cover, spine, inside design and a little booklet to go with it which usually includes information about the band with pictures of them, along with lyrics and notes about how the songs were recoreded and produced.

One that we looked at was 'Little Creatures - Night People'. We listened to the song and then looked at how the design of the digi pack has similarities to the mood and feel of the song and also the music video. We noticed that the song was very calm and relaxed and that the cover clearly refelcted that with lots of green foresty scenes which was consitent through the whole digi pack and the video and then a couple of ghosts as well relating to their name - Little Creatures.
