Copyright Clearance

Music Permission Request

We had to contact VibeSquad to get permission to use their music in our Production team so we will not be accused of copyright. We definitely do not want our videos getting removed from youtube, how will we be assessed without a product. I hope they agree before the christmas holiday.

We found VIBESQUAD email address on their official website.

Here is the mail that was written to VibeSquad via outlook we are pleading to use their music for our coursework project.   

Planning Print Products Pitch Plan

We started planning our pitch for our CD packages, our colour scheme, and font style and our photography inspirations. 

Production Schedule!

This is my production schedule for my Media Project.

Post-Production Photography

 Bookings

I will book the studio for two or three days in December and January. First, I will ask Elma to contact the models to see what time they will be available on the last week before we break up for the Christmas Holiday. 

I hope that we all do not catch a flu, it is quite cold this November and everyone is getting ill. Please, models wrap up warm so you can be available when we call you for the post-production shoot.

Editing Day 3

 Editing Everything 

(main focus today is on the Journey of the actress, TV Studio and the ending) 

The footages are all on Final cut pro 

We edited the Canteen scene which we changed to a corridor in college we had to cut the POV shot  and also Akyni's journey to make it look plausible.  And the ending of the promo video by cutting the footage with all of the three actors dancing, we used two different angles so we had to merge those together. We wanted to add a split screen but we decided to remove it because it was not  looking good instead we may use monochrome effect or consider something else.

You just have to wait to see  E.M.V Productions in the screening, including other Music Promo video and various genres of Short Films.

We hope to have some feedback from our target audience.

Date: Tuesday 25th November. 

Location: In College, Room A9/ 

The Editing Suite

Time:10:20am - 11:30am

Editing Day 2

Marsh Lane Editing 

We had to cut from the unsteady movement using  hand held camera shot from Prince Regent  and Marsh lane smooth pan so it looks like a wipe wipe transitioning from Prince Regent to Marsh Lane. 

Final Cut Pro Effects

Gamma correction was included in these filming because it was brighter here but as the time flew by it became quite dark in the other filming of marsh lane.

 Gamma Correction was not added here it was dark in this shooting. If we made it brighter it would look grey and if we use contrast it will look even more darker because Akyni was wearing black. My group cut a some of the shot when the actor drops the ball. 

There is not enough lip syncing, I thought my group told the actor to lip sync the end of the chorus, However, if we have enough studio and the brick wall shoot to fill the time from the video.  Our Teacher Amy suggested that if we have time we could get the actor lip syncing the whole lyrics and then we have enough footage. Or we could make it a performance based video rather than narrative with the actors dancing and one person lip syncing. We have a few clips in our folder we hope that there is enough footage for lip syncing of the studio.

 TV Studio Editing

Both actors are lip syncing, we had to cut from one actor to another. (Euwan to Robert and back)
The lighting was perfect here, the problems were when we tried to fit the lip syncing with the song on. We listened to it a several times then we had to cut from where the first ballad was finished to when the next actor should lip sync.

College Editing 

(Brick Wall and Green Cargo) 

We added text to the video, and added a white font we wanted to make it more creative, but we wanted our target audience feedback so we asked a few people in our class. They think we should add a bright colour or edit the font with kente similar to the patterns and colours on the black customised costume. I asked my friends and they want it to be red and others want it to be white but in a fancy font style.
