Working with a Green Screen

For our music video one of the biggest parts of the project is conducted with a green screen effect. I had never tried this before, however a lot of editing techniques are self taught and learnt along the way. Which is why I took it upon myself to use the resources I have with YouTube to conduct my own research prior to our editing of the music video. This means that taking these measures will allow a much smoother editing process as I have already learnt the basics of editing the background with a green screen, and even if need be I know I have a reliable resource which I can always revert back to which will help us along the way if we were to have any queries or issues.







The use of the green screen when editing isn't actually as hard as I first suspected, the background can be changed in a few simple steps, and once the first try is out of the way it appears even easier. The more you practice the easier it becomes.
I will upload the practice one which we conducted for you all to see, there are some errors with it however due to this I have been able to identify the problems and correct them before using it on our main task. I will explain this more in the next blog about the practice green screen editing.
See you guys later!

Polaroid Practice Shots

Hey guys, so we've came up with our music video idea which is going to be including polaroid's, which means we need some serious practice with these throughout until the time of our main production. We had a first attempt just in school, we then used an app to give the images the polaroid effect, which I think worked well,especially for the first attempt. However we are still going to be exploring a variety of ways to give the effect to see which works best. This means we will be taking many more pictures in order to test what works best in order to create the best project for out A2 piece.

One Page Pitch Video

This is our One Page Pitch, where we have presented the ideas we came up with to our Media teacher 'Record company manager'  and faced many questions to see if he thought our production ideas are creative and of a good quality. By watching this you will be able to explore our ideas and get the gist of our production.

CD cover shots

Ok guys so we have been practicing shooting some CD cover shots, which we will then by photo shopping so we can get the real gist of what it entails to create a good CD cover. All the shots we took were on the same background, however they are all different poses, which was purposely done to represent different genres, and show how different genres present their style of music with certain iconic looks and themes. The pictures are listed below, I shall let you guess which ones go with what genre, feel free to comment lol;) On one of my next posts you will be able to see what we created using Photoshop, and you can see if you guessed the pictures to the genres correctly!
