week 7 - blog reflection
Within week 7, in order to plan our shooting script, as a
group we researched various music videos in the style of the indie rock genre.
This is to establish a better understand of the production ethics which are
used on the different styles of music videos. After researching various videos,
we then made ideas for our shooting script, with regard to our music video. We
then started our shooting script in preparation for our music video through
discussing when and what shot should happen first and in what order.

week 6 - blog reflection
As we have completed our treatment plan, we now have to
start planning our designs for the digipak and advert for our music video.
Therefore, within week 6 we have been carefully considering and designing what
we want to be used in our digipak and advert. As we had a successful plan of
our digipak and advert we then designed a rough copy on paper, using different
colours where necessary to see what works best, as well as the colouring for
our advert. When we all agreed with the colours to use on our final digipak and
advert, we designed our final copy which we will use as a reflection.

Job Roles.
Job roles
As there are many jobs required to film our music video, as a team we have to share the job roles equally, so that it is fair for all of us. As a group we decided to pick the roles we felt were best suited for us, taking into account our strengths and weaknesses. This would ensure that the best team member is the better expert at a particular cast.
Locations
/Recce manager

Casting agent
As a group we decided that I (Charlene) will be the casting agent, because I have an increased knowledge of the locations that will be used within our music video production, due to the familiarisation of the Southbank area as I live relativley close by. In addition, as my group decided to use my unsigned chosen artist, I made the pitch for my music video, therefore, I had a plan of who my cast members would be.
Costume designs
Myself (Charlene) has been allocated the role of being the costume designer, as I have worked in the retail industry and I enjoy tyring out new clothes that are in season. Therefore, I am the more stronger team member that has knowledge within this sector, so I will be able to outline outfits to be worn for the music video pitch to meet the target audience, as well as to relate back to the style and genre of the unsigned artist Bethan Mary Leadley.
