Final magazine Advert

here is the final magazine advert  the advert is very simplistic but also have a fun vibe to it to reflect the artist herself . unlike the digipak the name of the artist and the name of the album are of a similar size . The name of the album songs in motion is slightly tilted to mimic the songs in motions
whilst the title is cartooned and bold to fit in with the theme of the magazine advert .
we have included when the album will be released and details of the album. in addition we have included critics reviews

layout 

The lay out  and effects was inspired by pop art .  i like the playfulness and the youthfulness of the image i wanted to imitate this in our mag advert















the colour grading  was also inspired by pop art particularly the Marilyn Monroe  image  the way her make up shows on her face is similar to ours

final ideas for digipak and magazine advert

Here are some final ideas for our magazine advert and for the outside of the digipak i like the use of colour and the artistic effects such as the scribbles. however i could reduce the amount put on the front maybe result to another sort of scribble like swirls or hearts . in addition the artist's name needs to be more visible . For the digipak i could change the font for the album title and also mention when the album is coming out ;like stating out 12th December instead of  12th December. in addition i could readjust the pictures so the artist's name is more visible .

rough cut 2

Here is the second rough cut
From the previous rough cut i have
-made the editing more consistent for eg. if i have an overlay effect occurring, instead of cutting it off randomly in the video i have inserted a clip of the artist in-between  so that it is not so sudden and more cross cutting is included to improve the editing  .
-i  have replicated certain effects so that it is not so random .
-i have experimented more with the wire-frames to make the edit to the beat more interesting
- i have experimented more with the colour grading to make the edit more interesting and to have the theme of constant surprises constantly flowing through
- i have gotten rid of the excess audio that is not part of the music instrumental

changes that still need to be made 
i need to change the scenes with the brick wall either make them more interesting to fit in with the rest of the video or totally strip it hopefully i can find a place in between as it varies the locations

experiments with photoshop for digipak

using photo-shop i have experimented with different aspects of editing from different album cover / digipak templates to various experimental designs  to do this i had to get to grips with working with the layers within photoshop 

music video rough cut

Here is my rough cut for my music video there are certain things that need to be improved such as consistency with the edit and effects . furthermore i can experiment with the effects and framing of the screen so that it matches the beat .and the jump cuts
 i should also remove the random effects at the end of the footage and replace it with something else so that it looks more professional in addition for my next cut i will try to improve the lip sync and when exporting the video i should make sure that the settings are correct so that i can get the best quality and the audio needs to be edited so that no sounds for the actual footage can be heard

music video teaser

We have released a music video teaser for our chosen song constant surprises though are music video teaser is longer than the average teaser we  have extended the music video  teaser to show our processes so far . music videos teasers are usually released to create a buzz around the song and have people anticipate watching the music video.  At times the teaser may vary from the actual music video .below are some examples of short music video trailers/music video teasers which vary from  20-30 s long

experimental shots

we experimented with effects using final cut so we can apply them to our official music video

we experimented with the colour gradient to change the lighting and give the video a different feel 

we experimented with spilt screens  and colour gradients 

we tried a different effect with split screens  having some of the screens in normal motion  and having some in slow motion to give it a cool effect
