Music Video Pitch

In the lesson my group and I  had shared a our presentation of our 'treatment' to our class mates and to also receive feedback which can help to improve our ideas for our music video.
For our treatment to be presented in a creative way we had used PhotoPeach to present our ideas - this program enabled us to play music throughout our presentation without the need of selecting buttons.

Inspiration

Whilst I was at looking through music videos . I came across ' Rejjie Snow - "Lost in Empathy"  I liked the camera editing skills used to portray the lyrical content, and I also liked the scenery in the background and how it contrast with his red outfits and makes him stand out. These techniques really allows them to portray there abstract concepts to the audience.


Treatment Review

In this lesson we reviewed our treatment and went through the areas which were highlighted as weaknesses during our pitch to the class.
We will be tweaking certain aspects  of our treatment in order to sustain and attract our audience in the clearest way possible.

production schedule


 I will use this production schedule to keep up to date with my work. I under the importance of meeting deadlines and I believe by creating this schedule is important in allowing me to remember dates and meet deadlines. I will make changes to my production schedule throughout the process as I know I will need to add in more days and use my other free dates wisely.

Brainstorming

In today's lesson, we brainstormed our ideas in groups and began to write down our abstract ideas and to see how we can incorporate our ideas with the song and to also look at the range of camera angles available to us.
