Magazine adverts of real artist



Possible locations for music video


                                                           



Here are places where we want to do our filming for our music video which is in London. we've chosen these areas because of the lights and the buildings around. We want our music video showing clean sophisticated buildings and different coloured bright lighting as you can see in the images above. we are hoping that when we arrive at these locations it is not packed with people as this would make things difficult for us. 

What we should include on our digipak

We must include;
SIX PANELS
BAR CODE
TRACK LIST
DISK IMPRESSION
SPINE WITH ARTIST AND ALBUM'S NAME

Digipak from past students work





In lesson we viewed different digipaks from past student work and from actual artist this will help us with our planning for our own. The digipak above is has been constructed by a past student, the digipak seems as if a lot time and effort that been put into it. The digipak is packed with bright colours which gives is a joyful feel when viewed. At the top left of the digipak the image in this section is hand drawn with the names of girls who are in the band this is very effective and show creativity. Their music video highly relates to the digipak as they are both bright with colour and joyful to view. The editing is very quick which matches to the type of song they're using, the quick editing will help keep the interest of the spectator. 


 



 The Digipak and advert here above show many relations through colour, font and imagery. Although it is simple it still shows effectiveness as it gives of a sense of freedom and relaxation which I believe this is what the designer wanted to create. 

what is a digipak?

A digipak is simply a gate fold, paper-board or card that stock outer binding, with plastic trays which can hold a CD or DVD that is fitted onto plastic tray which then can be closed up.  




Example of album cover


Here is an example of an album cover, which is T.I's who is an american Hiphop rapper. The cover may look very simple but I still believe that it is highly effective. The album cover reveals T.I's face, the image of his face seems to be

Our music that we use for our final product must not be copyright music. Copyright is something that protects an authors work whether it is a musical, dramatic, artistic etc. Copyright will only have protection over ideas that have been elaborated, in other words ideas that have been put into action. 


We must be careful when we begin to search for the music we would like to use, if we see this copyright sign then that music cannot be used. This is the reason why we must ask the owners permission to use there work.


My favourite music video



This here is my favourite music video of all time, this is mainly because of the dance moves and the lighting and colour in the video. I also love the fact that the video is a tribute to Michael Jackson and the costumes in the video relate back to Michael. When I view this video it makes me fill up with excitement and makes me want get up and dance.

Drake sooner than later lyrics

Below are the lyrics to the song we will be using for our music video. The lyrics are highly relevant because we will them to learn the song in order for us to do the lip synchronizing.  


I forgot to call you on your birthday 
You swear you the last thing on my mind
There is nothing I can do to fix it 
All you ever asked me for was time

When our lives don’t go the same way that they used to
And I finally get a moment to myself 
I will realize you were everything I’m missin 
And you’ll tell me you’re in love with someone else

So can you do me a favor? 
If I pull it together
Make it sooner than later
We wont be here for ever
And ill realize I waited too long
But please don’t move on 
You don’t need no one else
You don’t need no one else 
You don’t need no one else
You don’t need no one else 
You don’t need no one else 

You just changed your hair and it looks perfect 
Wish I was the first to let you know
Every chance I get to make it better
I just find a way to let it go 

When our lives don’t go the same way that they used to
And I finally get a moment to myself 
I will realize you were everything I’m missin 
And you’ll tell me you’re in love with someone else
[Sooner Than Later Lyrics On http://www.elyricsworld.com/ ]
So can you do me a favor? 
If I pull it together
Make it sooner than later
We wont be here for ever
And ill realize I waited too long
But please don’t move on 
You don’t need no one else 
You don’t need no one else 
You don’t need no one else
You don’t need no one else 
You don’t need no one else 

The girl or the world 
You see someone gotta loose 
I thought I could have it all 
Do I really gotta choose?
What good is all the cash 
If it doesn’t buy time 
And what good is bein famous 
If im never on your mind 
Nights fallin 
Lights glowin 
And im just tryin ta pay the price on
And I don’t wanna feel the comfort from my ice showin 
And I aint tryin ta be with out you at the right moment 
Nigga nights gone is it worth it? 
That decision cuz hearts break in 
I aint tryin ta be in that collision 
So im dust my shirt 
And fix my pants cuz I better look good girl if this my chance I swear 


So can you do me a favor 
If I pull it together
Make it sooner than later
We wont be here for ever
And ill realize I waited too long
But please don’t move on 
You don’t need no one else 
You don’t need no one else 
You don’t need no one else
You don’t need no one else 
You don’t need no one else

songs choices

Here are two of our song choices that we maybe using for our music video, but first we must e-mail the creator of the songs. We must do so to get comfirmation that we are able to use the music for our production of a music video. In the meanwhile of waiting for the positive feedback we will begin our planning of how we are going do our music video.
