Final Cut Of Our Music Video

Due to unknown reasons I am unable to post our final cut onto my blog. 

Technical Difficulties

We have had many difficulties with Premier, which included exporting, importing videos and file corruption and deletion. However we have managed to export a version of our video which is our final cut. The ending of our video however has become slightly juddery and one shot of myself picking up a bag as slowed itself down, and we cannot change it back without further corruption of the video.

Final Draft of Magazine Advert Ancillary Task

This is the latest version of the magazine advert. Nicola has completely changed it from the previous version but she felt this version was more successful in creating mood and atmosphere. The image of Libby is slightly faded around the edges was to make a link to the music video during the dream sequence when I disappear and Libby is left alone. Nicola also changed the colours of the advert as she used the tint option in Photoshop this was to make it easier for her to do the font colour and we both believe the effect is better. The teddy holding the sign was used to make the audience (who would be looking in a magazine) stop and look at the advert. Nicola also changed the fonts from last time, using the same font generator but changed the fonts. "Taylor Swift" remains the same font as before but the "Ft..." and "Safe and Sound" are all different fonts. This was to make them more individual and to catch the audiences eye.

This is our final design for the Digipak.We have changed the font from the previous design so that it matches Nicola's magazine advert and also the font itself is now more like an actual album of Taylor Swift's, as this is the style font she uses. We also printed out our digipak and assembled it to see how it would look in reality.

 



Once our digipak was assembled we were also able to see how our booklet inside the digipak would look. For our booklet we chose to have a prologue behind the story we show in our video, which Nicola wrote, along with the lyrics which had been typed up to make them look neater. We also stuck in swirls which Nicola had created to add with the style to which Taylor Swift uses in her actual albums.
