Finished Second Advert

This is our finished second advert. We did originally plan to add another section being the 'noodle adicts' groups, however after we filmed this we decided against using it. Our advert was already 26 seconds in length and we couldnt of got rid of any more to fit that bit in, and also we feel it might of confused the audiecne as it wasnt one hundred percent clear. We feel this is short and to the point, and with the extra bit it would of been too much.

Today..

we have managed to edit ALL of the first advert.. All that needs to be done now is adding music. We have picked an artist (Joel Owen) we would like and have asked him if we can use one of his songs so we are not copywriting. He was willing to let us use one so we are very grateful.

Feedback..

we have recieved our first comment off youtube form our sponership advert. The print screen is unlcealr but it says "
I think this advert is funny I will will remember it which is a very important aspect a advert". This is very pleasing to hear, and any feedbac kis good

I Am Pleased..

That we have finished the second advert, Tv sponership advert, and Radio Advertisment. I have uploaded these three onto youtube to see what feedback we get from other people not in our class.. Now we are going to re-film the last part of the first advert and then we have 2 full days in which to edit this.

I have also done a fair amount of my evaluation so i feel that we are coming on okay, and should not be stressed.

Finished TV sponership

This is our finished Tv sponership advert. It is shorter in length than a real advert as it would be shown just before the start of a progamme they are sponersing. ours being Britania High a music drama for teenagers.

Adding Image To End Of Adverts

we added an image to the end of our adverts to help promote the product. We took a picture of our product on a digital camera, lasoosed around the image to make the background black. We saved it to a memory stick and then uploaded the image. When this is shown the voice over slogan is played at the same time.

Evaluation

Last night I thought about ways in which i could present my evaluation. I

filming

The due date is nearing and we really need to get a wriggle on. Also, as the evaluation needs to be 'non boring', eve and I need a discussion on how we are going to do it. I think a video would be quite eye catching.

Next Week

On wednesday we are going to get down to buiness and do some tweeking to out first advert and to out radio advertisment.

Today i am going to start thinking about out evaluation.

Starting to think about evaluation..

These are the evaulation equestions we have to evaluate after finishing our practical. We will answer these individully on our own seperate blogs

In the evaluation the following questions must be answered:
1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
E.g. Here you need to analyse at least 9 key shots from your main task and write about: generic conventions you’ve applied or subverted, your use of camera work, lighting, music, mise en scene, intertextuality, shots which show you’ve watched similar media texts. Pick key features from your ancillary tasks and do the same.

2. How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?
E.g. Here you should provide background information to your products detailing what kind of image you hoped to create and your main aims behind creating the campaign. You should mention: research, narrative, use of colour, text, font, images, sound and how they link. Evaluate your pieces by considering what worked well and what you’d change if you could.

3. What have you learned from your audience feedback?
E.g. Initial feedback you received from peers, teachers and social networking sites and what you did about it

4. How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?
List all of the equipment you used and how it helped you – what would you have had to do if you didn’t have access to it? Include screengrabs of the programmes you used.

You must answer all of the questions in as much detail as possible.
You should include a variety of different ways to answer your questions as you will be assessed on your presentation e.g. screengrabs, scribd, director’s commentary, JPEG files, slideshare etc
see http://musicvideomattleonowicz.blogspot.com/ for examples of these ways

This week...

the plan is:

-Film our first advert
-Edit our first advert
-Film the beginning of our second advert
-Edit the beginning of our second advert

If we get this done by next week then we will have managed to finish practical work before the deadline and get any other bits that we are unsure of re-filmed or re-editied.

Teacher Feedback

Sponsorship advert - Mid Level 2 - a great idea with appropriate music. Unfortunately it's apparent this was filmed at the last minute - your actors could have put more "oomph" into their acting and you need to cut the last shot of the girl laughing out.

Advert - Mid Level 2 - your idea for this had many more scenes included and it would be great if you included some of them. A title is needed at the end showing the product. The music isn't a definite yes - it could be more contemporary like your sponsorship ad is.




In response to this feedback we are going to take on board the teachers pointers. We will most likely try and refilm some of the sponership adevert, and i will have a think over the next few days of how to imporve it. For the main advert they gave us feedback for, we have a scene to film and put in so that should be no problem. We may have to re consider the music, however this was a posotive point that the peers gave us about our advert (& in all fairness they are out target market not old teachers).

On tuesday we are going to re-film the first advert in the resturant udring the day time to get maxium use of light.

Peer Feedback

In todays lesson, we peer assesed each work (those that had done moving image).
Here is the respone we got from our classmates about our sponership advert & the second advert we have filmed.

Sponership

-Need to consider ending it with a Title/Image of product
-The cheesyness of the advert links well with the theme
-The last shot could be cut shorter

Second Advert
-Some narration could be added
-'Oven shot' works well.
-Music fits well
-Title at the end is needed
-Contrast with the speed of Sadie moving fast and the slow clock looks good



We are going to take these points on board, in order to create a better peices of coursework.

We Have Now...

been told we have untill the end of January to complete out coursework. This means we have longer to film, and to also refilm certain bits thats need improving.

Next week

The targets for this weekend and next week are:

-Re-film the rest of the first advert
-Edit the first advert
-Add music to the first advert
-Film the beginning of the second advert
-Edit the beginning of the first advert

Even though the school's equiptment is awful, we have to make do as we have no other back up. So we have to get on with it.

Editing

As yesterday went terribly wrong, i had come into school today optimistic. This lesson i have editied the beginning of the first advert as Eve is ill at home. I have taken a camera out to record the rest of the first advert. I have asked Eve if she could ring up her boss to see if we can use the poachers again. I also got feedback from my radio advert that I filmed and editied wednesday. Mrs Hammond had said it was good and there is no point re-filming it to gain or loose a mark as Mrs Somel suggested. Thankfully we have a week extension due to Eve's illness.
