VIDEO

my filming has begun
however the format of the transfer file have is not compatable with either the schools computers or my own .
so i have to wait until i can get a converter for the wires,
i will keep you posted on my progress as it is all i can do for now :)

this is my final album cover
i have made it without a picture because i could not find a picture that i really liked with the style i wanted it
the album is entitled
"This Nation"
i have made it as simpe as possible to represent the nation as what you see is what you get kind of thing

final draft album cover



went with a different way


explanation of posters

the reason i chose a dark dingey city on my posters that i have previously posted because the band of which song i am doing are a stoke band, andone of the songs on the EP that is to yet be released personifies stoke as a grimey dirty place the picture i used is not from stoke but yet it is only a mock up for my final i will go out and take a picture from a tall builing and the edit it in order to get it with the sane effect

album covers and posteres

below i have created 6 posters and 3 album covers i did this all with the one sane image because it help relate the two and alot of band posters that sel;l well are just the album cover on a bigger scale.










this is my first idea of an album cover, i will try and make a pster which relates to this idea closely

i have watched alot of music videos over the last couple of months all in various styles one that stands out to me the most is enter shikari's sorry your not a winner, it is the band there equipment and some fans in the room all just listening dancing ect, i like the kind of idea , but the best idea i could get from that for me would be have people video my own band from several angles and edit them together in a way that suits the song i will have a little go at it tommorow at my own gig.

SONG DECIDED!

i have decided to make a music video for the song

Your Disguise - The Edition

i have chosen this because i know the melody rhythm and meaning behind the lyrics of the song,
some of the lyrics of the song are of mature content so i will do 2 versions of the song in the second i will blank out the volume when the particular words are mentioned.

if you have not heard the song that i am mjaking the video cover and poster for then on thursday the 29th of october it will be available for hearing on there myspace

this is a video for a song by bullet for my valentine, i like this video because it is all shot in one place which means that if i did a video like this then minimum editiong is possible however the editings must be effective if simple

i am down to a short list of songs to do for my project,

The Ediotion - Your disguise (depending on Quality of Track)
Bon Jovi - We Weren't Born To Follow
Trivium - Entrance Of The Conflagration
Enter Shikari - Hectic
Papa Roach - Forever

please comment this post and let me know which song you think i should do, i need to start filiming soon so i could do with help fast :)

i watched this music video and decided that i would like to make a video similar to this one, as it is simple, effective and simple to make, involes a minimum amount of editing.
