Process of Creating My Web Pages:

Process of Creating My Web Pages: Since I did the research on the key elements, I need to include onto a website to conform to the expectations of the genre and the audience, as well as, what is expected of a website for a music artist. I also examined two artists websites to understand further what they entail. This meant that I was able to gather the right information and ideas about what my website should look like to appeal to the stated brief target audience. The process began by deciding what I wanted to feature on the homepage. It started as having the album cover of the latest release “Under Control”, in the foreground followed by six other album covers by the artist. However, I decided to keep the “Under Control” album in the foreground, so that it was the first thing that the users saw when the visited the website to act as a marketing ploy to promote that latest song release. I did keep the other six albums on the homepage however this precedes the section where his I...

A List of All The Things I Need To Create My Web Pages:

A List for All the Things I Need to Create my Web Pages: ·       Links to social medias ·       Title of Calvin Harris ·       Menu bar ·       Background for my first page ·       Album front cover  ·       Instagram pictures for my artist and two videos: One for the music video and the other and exclusive interview with the artist.  ·       Latest releases will involve having six images of album covers with texts on them of the names of the album covers.  ·       A slideshow that will have three pictures.

Casting:

Casting Shots: Why I Have Casted the People I Have: Benedict:  I chose to cast Benedict as the male character as he is my older brother, so this gave me the perfect opportunity to film on holiday and capture the “summer” ideas that my music video emulates. Benedict when this was filmed was twenty- one, therefore he is directly in the middle of the directed target age of the brief which is a culturally sophisticated 16-25-year-old. The aspect of cultural sophistication is suggested through the variety of cultures and locations that Benedict is shown visiting. This really anchors the concept of the demographic of A and B, which is another requirement stated in the brief. I have also chosen Benedict as he is personality is best described as outgoing and lively and I really wanted this character persona in the music video, as it is about “summer fun”, and I feel that Benedict has firmly fulfilled this.  Abi:  Abi, I thought would be brilliant to play the femal...

Things to Consider with Production Plans: Coursework:

Things to Consider with Production Plans: Plan the locations for the shoot: This has been done by creating a storyboard to collect my ideas of what shots I wish to capture whilst filming. This will benefit me when it comes to filming, as it will speed the process along, which will mean that the people I have casted for my music video should be more willing if needed to do another shoot with me to amend the video. I will also have to produce a plan of who is in the music video, who are the performers, and what the props will be to ensure everything is done and executed to the highest standard.  Plan the Filming: When filming I must be organised and should keep track of my previous shots recorded, this will make editing an easier process. It is key for me to be organised as it will be filmed whilst I am on holiday and so it is imperative that the shots for the music video are done and work effectively as  I  am unable to do any reshoots there. This may even in...
