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!

Reception theory- Stuart Halls

This approach focuses on the scope for negotiation and opposition, this means that a text is not simply passively accepted by an audience, but viewers interpret meanings due to their own cultural background and life experiences. Stuart Hall stressed the role of social positioning in the interpretation of mass media texts by different social groups. The dominant reading means that the viewer fully accepts the text code. The negotiates reading means the viewer partly accepts the text code and broadly accepts the preferred reading.  The oppositional refers to the reader whos social situation places them in a direct oppositional relation to the dominant code. In our music production we aim to encode the video with the preferred meaning of being able to get through hard situations with independence and not relying on anyone else for happiness, however some viewers may reject this dominant message and take it as something other than how we intended.

Marketing

Hey guys! Today I am going to focus on the marketing of our company. Marketing is a very important aspect. Promotional strategies and marketing go hand in hand. Marketing our company and artists will involve different aspects of manufacturing, promoting and selling the artists and our company products to the target market. In order to benefit from audiences to the best we can, we have to first of all understand the target market we are entering. Having a solid and well-thought-out marketing plan can help you identify gaps in the music industry and provide feasible solutions for your clients. Understanding what our customers want and are missing is essential in the business. The 4 P's are the most important  part in the marketing process: Product - The product is going to be our artist herself, Sav (played by Eloise) and the album/music she creates. In many ways this can be seen as not only providing a product for consumers, but also a service, Music is a psycho-physical pursu
