Preliminary: Album cover

Our preliminary task was to create a one minute music video, and an album cover to go with. So here we have the album cover, album covers can be used to help promote a specific song, in this case 'Ugly Heart' and the band itself. As we are a girl band we went with the typical look for this category. Whilst researching into album covers many girl bands portray themselves in a similar way on their album cover, as having an image of them all promotes them and denotes to the audience the type of music they are producing within the album, which is an extremely useful promotional technique. 

In terms of the back of the album cover we have made this simplistic yet eye-catching, it denotes the look we definitely wanted to achieve of bright colors representing positive vibes which girl bands create.

Filming day 1

Today was our first day of filming for our music video, we designated the first day of filming to shoot the polaroid's, and we decided as a group that the location for these shots would be Matlock Bath. We spent approximately 3 hours at this location, from 12pm-4pm. From this we managed to shoot a range of burst shots from many different angles and background locations in order to provide us with a wide range to chose from when putting them into the music video. Due to the fact these shots needed to be bursts, in order to capture every movement, we used my Iphone to take the pictures, this meant we didn't need to hire any equipment. In terms of props we just needed the artist in day to day clothes, which was pretty simple, Eloise wore a dress, coat, and hat, portraying herself as the average young woman walking through an every day environment. Here is what we managed to film/capture: We got 15 burst shots in total, these all conducted of approximately 150 photos in each sh...
