Group Reflections

In our group Sam has been placed in charge of the editing and filming part of our music video. So far, he has implemented a lot of time into the editing but more time needs to be placed on the filming side because it seems as though there isn't enough coherency throughout the music video; thus, our group have decided to try and create more of a narrative or storyline that will be closely connected to the lyrics of the song. 

Jordan has been put in charge of the magazine cover and various other tasks, he is currently an A level art student so the skills that he gained from that have played a vital part in the progess of Jordan's tasks. He is also our main performer so most of the time he is going out with the group for various filming or sometimes photography.

Antonio has been placed on digipak duty, our group as a whole have been attempting to centre on what our synergy will actually be, at the moment it seems to be 'nature' which is perfect because all of our filming has taken place in grassy or forestry areas. Antonio has been doing well so far and will try to improve our digipak even further.

Harry Foord has the website objective, which is currently taking a long time to complete, not from lack of effort but from our busy schedules; some free time may need to be sacrificed in order to complete these tasks to their fullest potential. Harry has also been carrying out the various other tasks that have been appointed to our group.

Overall, I would say that our group has the determination and willingness to complete these tasks to a good standard, but we just need to focus on what needs to get done and prioritize certain things.

Twitter album anouncment

Here we have announced that an album id coming soon on our twitter. By keeping this post simple with no date or detail we are building the hype as people retweet the post to there followers.

Instagram Album Announcement

Similar to our twitter announcement we have gave our followers a teaser of what is coming. This post includes the album cover and the name of the album so will create more of a hype than the twitter post as there is more to speculate about.

Digipak

After our first draft of our artist digipak we have produced a further outcome, this outcome includes clearer images, effects, an artist slogan and our album name and songs. For this we will receive feedback and will analyse how we can improve this digipak any further.

Social Media Accounts

As part of our artist marketing we have created further social media accounts in order to increase our artists recognition and image. We have used a snapchat, twitter and instagram account to target our young target audience.

Digipak Draft

Here we have a draft of the progress of our digipak. Our aim is to represent Paleme as a free willed artist along with a synergy of nature/green and black. We want this digipak to not seem staged and to stand out from others because of the locations and effects.

Teacher Review - Prior to first Draft

Mrs Brookes thought that some of our shots were too similar, thus she recommended that we apply more variation to our music video. Similarly, she thought that we needed to include more group shots of the guys 'having fun' as a majority of the shots are just of our main performer Paleme (Jordan) singing to the camera. Although this draft hasn't got any after effects on it yet, because our group is planning to make it colourful and visually more vibrant. We will now attempt to change the video in accordance with our teachers advice, so as to get the produce the best possible music video and receive a grade appropriate to this.
