Digi Packs

We have also got to create a digi pack for our band. So this means creaing an aulbum cover and back and placing all the right conventions needed for aulbum Art work. Also institutional information...

1. Price


2. Barcode


3. Record Label


4. Year of publishing


5. Copyright


6. Composers/ Producers


7. Reference Number


8. Band members


9. Guest Performers

The purpose of an aulbum cover is to advertise its contents also the Artist. Using artistic designs and ideas to catch the audences eyes more if it was sitting on a shelf in a Music Store. Its good for it to be intresting and unique so it stands out more. Also, in the case of all types of records, it also serves as part of the protective sleeve.

Filming schedule

So far me and my group are supposed to be filmng, but due to weather conditions that is not possible. Our main idea of the video is set outside, where its supposed to be light, sunny and filled with rainbows bcause the charactes are in love with each other, but i doubt this will be happening since we are in Winter. Some of our scenes are to be filmed in school, but we have to work around the time of our cast, and what would be suitable for them. We may have to change our idea slightly and probly the idea of or storyboards too.

Bowling For soup Music video...

Research

So far we are concentrating on working on our Animatic for our music video. At the moment we need to include our music on to it and combine our storyboard with it. The animatic should be on here by the end of this week. Were hoping for our animatic to go in Sync with our main song for our music video. So for every time the tempo or beat changes the shot will change on our video. Were looking at research and ideas for our video at the moment, and researching into existing bands like the Arctic Monkeys and Kings of Leon because they sing at a similar genre to the Mystery jets. We only have a few ideas for special effects and one of our main ideas was to use an hand held camera so it looks shaky and homemade. I'm going to research onto what films or videos that use that type of effect.



Cloverfeild Trailer.

I found this movie which wasn't released not that long ago. Cloverfeid is completely made from a handheld camera effect. It looks from the persons point of view and sight, so were looking for this type of effect in our music video. Cloverfeild was released in 2008 and is an American monster movie. The whole Plot of Cloverfeild is that it is an American monster movie. Their is a attack on New York city when a group of small friends are celebrating a leaving party. On the night of the party everything starts to go wrong, and they see suspicious things happening outside their window, whilst people are running and screaming. One of the friends decided to record it for evidence for the future for if they didn't make it through. The whole idea of the film is for it to look like it was recovered from a digital camcorder months after the event, and was found in that area. The entire movie were performed by effects studios Double negative and Tippett Studio.

Columbia Records ( Independant Label )

Columbia Records is an independant American record label. Columbia Records was founded in 1888 Steve Barnett and Rick Rubin are the main co-heads of columbia records. Columbia records was one of the first to produce pre-recorded records by any genre of singers, musicians and groups. From 1961 to 1990 most of its records was distributed outside of the USA and Canada on the CBS records name before adopting the Columbia name in most of the world. Columbia records had no connection to Columbia pictures until 1989 they often used other record labels that they owned, Sony is also part of Columbia pictures.

Columbia was originally owned by Edward Easton in Washington D.C. It gets its name from District of Columbia which was its main headquarters building. Columbia diustributed commercial cylinders recordings of its own, and therfore only sold recordings of its own manufacture. Columbia started selling Disc records in 1901, which was produced by their Toy Graphophone which was only small cut version copies. During this early period Columbia thought of using Magical nothes for their logo, where this would never be changed. In 1912 Columbia only focused on distributing disc records.

Present-day Columbia Records
Columbia records has become a music label for pop, Rck and soul genre Artists . Columbia records was sold off to CBS master records now ( SONY classical ). With the clash of Sony, Columbia was unsure what logo to use, so they signed off records with no label just Colubia printed on it. Nowadays they use the Walking Eye logo for their records. Columbia records is now signed with Epic records.

Michel Gondry ( Music Director )

Michel Gondry is a french director that does work for Music vidoes and Feature films. Michel Gondry is most famous for his wide imagery and storytelling teqniques. His films are more based on fantasy than reality. Which includes cartoon styled videos and motion picture films. He was a young artist that would often teach others in his class how to draw naked women. His Music video carrer kicked off when he met a pop star called Bork, who used Gondry for his video. The video became very popular and Bork used him for five more making Gondry even more famous.

Michel Gondry has also done commercials and finally launched his first feature film in 2001. Later on Gondry won an amount of awards, including the 2005 acamdemy award for best

original screen play.

Some of Michel Gondry's work includes his own original hand drawn images. He has a obbsession for fantasy type films and music videos, and often makes his own visual representation of fantasy chararcters.

Mood Board

This is a mood board for our group called, Fudge. On the mood board has all of our ideas that we done. It involves visual pictures and our storyline to give our audience clues about our Music Video. This is most of our ideas that we have come up with so far. Has a group it took us awhile to think of ideas that we all liked., so creating this has helped us alot. We are mainly looking at things for our inspiration. Were looking for a factory girl sort of style at the time being., Also the song is about young love so we also thought of small editing ideas, Maybe having a part of the video that looks like a flashback in the past.

The Inspiration

For our inspiration we are using Factory Girl. We are looking for this type of style for our leading girl. Style, crops and to the way she acts in the video. We chose this because it has a indie sort of style to it, and we believe it will fit in to our video idea.
