Emily - A Level Media

Link to first draft: https://youtu.be/-EejgalVY8k This is my feedback looking back at my first draft At 0:10 the clip is too static, so I will reshoot the clip and include him getting ready. Plus, I will make it clear he would rather choose to spend time with her.  Performance shots need Ken Burns effect to give it movement. (Unable to do as editing software I am using doesn’t have it) At 0:46 the walking section will include him texting his mates who send him immature messages, to further emphasise the narrative. During the long performance shots, such as 0:51, it will be intercut with him writing about his new best friend. This footage will be sped up.  During the last half of the video as not a lot happens, I will intercut new footage of him ‘choosing her’, by cutting between pictures of them and cancelling messages and calls from his usual mates. 

     

Website Homepage Website Second Page I have decided to use the 'Anton' font, as I believe it will stand out on my website and appeal to a mass audience. I have chosen the colour scheme of white, grey, orange and yellow as they reflect positivity and will be eye catching for my target audience. Plus, the majority of the writing/text will be in black. I have chosen this layout because for the user it will be easy to use, and having some blank space is conventional of the websites I analysed.

Charlie Biggins - Charlie Reasons for Casting - I chose to cast this person as he is within the age demographic of the brief and personally I think he fits in well with the theme of my song, as he is young, suggesting freedom, and works well with the anti stereotype of the friendship between old and young. Gail Biggins - Second Character Reasoning for Casting - I chose to cast this person as she suits the anti stereotype of older people being friends with younger people, and will make the video more attractive to a mass audience.

The props I will use in the video include: picnic items (blanket, food, drinks, bag/basket) Monopoly glass cup photos of characters The costumes that my cast will be wearing are: Main Male Character/Artist - During the narrative he will be wearing plain shorts and a more colourful t-shirt that reflects the positivity of the video. He will also be wearing Nike trainers, to show product placement. On the other hand, during the performance scenes, he will be wearing a different outfit, which includes a different coloured and styled t-shirt, to help the audience distinguish what is performance and what is narrative. Other Female Character - She will also be wearing summery clothing, which includes a coloured t-shirt, jeans and trainers. This will be kept the same throughout the whole of the music video, to keep the continuity.
