Group: Update 09-12-13

CC: Today I submitted my advert print work. I am very pleased with it as it is simple, however with a lot to look at.

LB: With the deadline tomorrow there is still some things we have to do. However we are still certain we will finish before then. Today we put all the footage we had done over the weekend on After Effects e.g. All Black & White shots of Chris in the woodland area, and Joeys edited paint shot with a similar idea. This is all finished and we now have the first 2 minutes and 20 seconds completely finished (Small changes may happen because of feedback) with the final segment to be edited correctly as at the moment its just the footage we have to go there.

In todays lesson we got feedback on our video, the feedback was very positive, and we know exactly what we have left to do. The concept has come along way in the last two weeks, but now we have created a loose narrative by using colour. Today Joey also took the first two shots of Chris looking over the city, these shots now have a blue sky with everything else Black & White as if Chris is looking into colour and happiness.

I also finished my print work today. This has still not been checked and I haven't been given feedback, however I am happy with how it turned out. I believe it is appropriate for the band image and is representational of our work and other group members print work. The panes have all been done on Photoshop following similar ideas from our video such as; Playing with colour, brighter parts with other bits in Black and White. I have used the conventional typography that Bastille use for their covers. I have also used the band image of the triangle on the front cover and throughout the digi-pak.

Finished Digi-pak

After going through footage today, we realised that there were some clips I had not put through After Effects, so at home I put these on After Effects, these were shots for our final segment of the video where Chris is in colour but the urban location is in Black & White, this finishes our narrative. This now means that all footage on After Effects has been finished.

 

 

 

JP: In today's lesson we put in all the footage we had been working on over the weekend. This was the last of Liam's selective colour shots and my selective colour shot of the paint thrown on Chris. There was a problem transferring the other shots I'd done at home of the town location, opening shots in black and white with only the sky blue but I managed to re-create these in After Effects in today's lesson.

Now that we have all our footage on the timeline and the majority of it in the right place, we are able to look at our video as a whole and have received positive feedback about it. We have some final touches to add to the video before the deadline following the feedback and our own reviewing of the video but overall we are very happy with how our video is looking at the moment and how the concept has developed and worked in the video.
