Organising my hotel room filming at Cave Castle in South Cave

I emailed South Cave Castle with this message

(I am uploading the picture of the email soon)

From this they called me back and we started to discuss the appropriate situation of me filming in the hotel rooms.

I will upload the video of me on the phone with the hotel soon...

Travel arrangements for Eddie

Eddie lives quite far away in Withernsea/Hornsea, Eddie has his own car so therefore he is able to travel to me, because he is travelling a large distance and will be travelling a lot to get the shots done, I have spoken and arranged to give him money for his petrol, around £30 is the price that I will pay for his petrol which is understandable because he is doing this voluntarily for me and he is making his own way to me. Also he is at college so he isn't in full time employment which means he doesn't have a lot of money to spend on petrol.

Final organisation before first day of filming

 

 

 

This is the weather forecast fo the weekend when I am wanting to film

The first weather forecast is for Saturday the 29th of November. This sis the day that I would like to be filming my music video. I will be starting the videoing early in the morning and then hopefully get as much of the filming done as possible.

The first place that I will be filming at is at my house on the couch. This will be the first place I will be filming at because if it is early in the morning it doesn't matter due to the filming being inside and also the weather is usually grim and really cold in the mornings so with it being inside I can make the most of the time that I will have.

The second place that I will be filming in is Welton Waters; this is the most awkward place to get to as it is down a dirt track. I will want to go in the morning for the filming of the video, the reason why I’m going in the morning is because of that the area I’m going to is hardly used and also it is the easiest place to film at.

From Welton Waters we will move on to going to Hessle Foreshore, by then the weather should have picked up and it should be a little better although it will still be cold because it is on the foreshore. The two locations at the foreshore are very close to each other and are within 30 seconds walking distance. This is good as we can then move straight on the second location at the foreshore without traveling via car.





























I have this second weather forecast up because the first day might turn bad and be too cold to film, therefore I will need a backup day, the day after is my back up day which I hope I don't need to use.

Animatic second draft

This is my second animatic video. I have made the corrections in this one and now it is my final draft for my animatic video.

Animatic first draft

This is my first draft for my animatic video. When making my video it took only about two days to complete but I know for sure that when it comes to editing my music video it will take a lot longer to edit and make. Within the first draft that I made I found two errors. The first error was that one of the images wasn't edited properly to fit the screen and it looked out of place in the video. Also the second problem that I found was that I had missed a slot on the video, this made the video go black for a couple of seconds and it made it look tacky. I am currently in the process of making these corrections and I will be uploading the correct second draft shortly.

Outfits for each location

This is the outfit I will be wanting Eddie to wear when he is in the studio.





This is what I will be having when Eddie is performing when he is walking down the back road



When in front of the old windmill at Hessle foreshore I will be wanting Eddie to wear something like this



When in the tunnel I would like Eddie to be wearing





When sat on the bed this is what I want Eddie to be wearing

Possible places that my music video could be shared to

You tube

I think that by putting my video onto you tube it has such a high chance of going viral and being seen and watched by an endless amount of people. You tube is a massive influence in an artists music, you tube allows the public to search the song that they are looking for from all corners of the world. As well as listening to their music the public can also watch their favourite artist perform. The publics accessibility to the newest songs and biggest hits is easy on you tube, the site suggests popular songs that other people are watching and have ‘liked’. The ability to ‘like’ a video and also comment your thoughts has a huge impact on the artist and editor of the video. The public voice can be very enthusiastic and positive towards the video made

MTV

MTV is another great way to get music across to your audience, my target range for my music video is 15-20yr olds, and this is a perfect age range for the viewers of MTV. MTV’s main audience is late teens and early 20s, this is why I think that my video would suit this show, MTV also has a diverse and wide range of famous directors and artists at their call. The advantage of this for the newer music editors and directors is that their music can be seen by the top artists and top producers. Once seen by these people the new talents to the music industry can be picked up by MTV and their people and thrown into the world of high end music production.

Music Channels

Music Channels are influential on how many people see the video, genre specific music channels also exist these days, which can help people view music videos they like. Music channels are no longer exclusive to people who pay for Sky or Virgin TV subscriptions. VIVA and 4Music are for everyone to see as they are channels that are on free-view which has been rolled out across the entire country. Free-view is the minimum required to be able to watch television.

Theorists

Short narative essay of Rockstar by NIckleback

NIckelback -- Rockstar

Through Tim O’Sullivan’s theory where ever media text has a story, this song can be applied to the theory as the story is about becoming a big rock star with money and everything you could want. The song lyrics explain in detail the main aspects of what the average person would want when they have loads of money being famous. Within the video there is a huge variety of people that are singing the song, this shows that it relates to a very wide range of ages and both genders. In terms of verisimilitude the video relates very well to the public as most of the idea that the song has about money and fame is what most of the public would have themselves. From the possible 8 types of narrative a music video can have, Rockstar has a more Cinderella effect, by this the dreams of what the people are wanting come true.

The narrative of the video through Todorov’s equilibrium of diegesis with the distribution of someone’s life with the dreams that they want, they then go on about what they are wanting to get and how they will get it (quest), but they don’t get what they are dreaming of, they only speak about it. But they seem happy about it and accept it, the song is for IF they were able to buy their life and fame with money.

Sven Carlson’s theory of every video falls into two types of videos, performance or conceptual clips, this song, Rockstar, falls into the conceptual clip type. This is because the video is more entertaining to watch the video itself than listen to the song. The conveying mood of becoming famous and having everything you could want. Stuart Halls reception theory is where the audience see a video in different ways due to encoded messages throughout a video. Most audiences are dominant, this means that they agree with the ideology of the video and song, there are a oppositional viewers which say the video is a stretch too far as people wouldn’t get the chance to any of the things in the video and that it increases peoples hopes too much when they will never achieve.
