Continuing with the digi-pak design, and I have still not decided on a set idea, the combinations of trainers and jelly beans does not seem to be working at all. So I will have to alter the colours of the trainers to correspond with those of the jelly beans in the hope they will work together.
I also was experimenting with fonts to use on the front cover, but so far none have been successful.
WITH THE FONT
WITHOUT THE FONT
Here are some typography ideas:
I finally found out how to change the colours of the trainers and now they work better with the jelly beans:
In todays lesson I was carrying on with my digipak, I finalised the back section of the digipak:
However, as for the rest of the digipak I am having issues positioning everything as the images I originally planned to use do not work well with the effects I have decided I want to use. At the minute my digipak looks like this:
In todays lesson I began editing my digipak using photoshop, so far I have done two sections of the digipak focusing on the inner side and the back side where the lyrics are featured.
In todays lesson we were told to watch a music video, "In Your Arms". The music video is entirely made of jelly beans and animation is used to make the video seem as if it has a constant motion. We thought this would be an amazing idea to apply to our logo for DJ DES, the whole use of bright colours would work really well with the ideology of our artist.
The music video is created by images being made using only jelly beans, the single frames used to shoot the video give an animatic look. This would be a fun and inventive logo which would work really well to assist our 'Do Your Thing'. One of the media teachers in the department is going to contact a member of staff from M&M World in London, so we can try and get some M&M's for free to use in the making of the logo.
In todays lesson we have been preparing for the pitch we will be presenting during fridays lessons. The elements of our pitch will include two power point presentations based upon the production of the music video.
One power point will outline the concept, synopsis and also will tackle costs and possible issues that might occur whilst filming. The other powerpoint will outline the cast members, different locations and will also address the concept and synopsis aswell as linking Goodwins Music Video Analysis to our own music video. This section will discuss how we have used certain elements of the theory and how we plan to apply them to our music video.
On top of the pitch planning I have also decided on the template I plan to use for my digipak:
This week we have focused on collecting and researching ideas to include on our digipaks, this involved researching different typography styles. Aswell as working on elements of the digipak we also looked into the cost of one of our main props- the personalised license plate. After researching the cost of the license plate we plan to split the price three ways so we all have an equal share and input into the props, also we have discovered that we need to order the prop soon to ensure we have this particular prop in time for filming.
These are a few typography ideas that Emily chose, we have yet to decide a final typography choice for our artist 'DJ DES'. We want to choose a typography which appeals to our target audience, therefore we want it to look young and fun-two things we would associate with both the artist and the audience.
As a group we thought it would be a good idea if we got a number plate with our DJ's name on it "DJ DES". We want to put this on the camper van at the beginning and end.
