Today we completed all of the animation of Louise and Tommy and started the animation of Mike and Louise. I had to import all of the separate body parts into final cut again and put them all into the order i wanted them to be.

Today we carried on with finishing our digi-pak and started our digi-pak advert. We started to put the text onto the digi-pak and made all of the other 5 sides that we need to make for it to look professional. We used the same effects on the other pages that we used on the front cover so that it would have a running theme the whole way through.

By the end of the day we had finished the digi-pak and the digi-pak advert. See separate post for the finished result.

Today we filmed Tommy against a white wall singing the lyrics to the song, we took many medium shots and many close up shots of him. We wanted to make him look appealing to the audience so we made him dress how we thought he should look due to the genre so we could signify this to the audience. We also uploaded it and changed the colours to black and white by using a colour corrector. We enhanced the whites so that it would look more effective and professional.

Today we continues to try and round our music video by trying to fill in all the gaps. After editing we found out that there were too many spaces that we needed to fill so we were going to have to do some more filming.

8th November

Today we started on the digi-pak for our band, we used photoshop to create this. We started by making sure all of the canvas's were the same size to work on so they would all come out equal. We decided we wanted to use a black background due to the song we chose being in the genre of indie/rock and this colour goes with the genre.

We decided to start experimenting with brush tools to see what they would look like on top of the black background. We wanted to use bright colours so that there would be a large contrast between the light and dark.

Today we carried on with the animation making sure that we have encoded it with the meaning that we wanted to. As each of the clips take a while to edit but will only be about 5 seconds each we had to make sure we have enough slips to go through the whole o our video so that there isn't just one part that has the animation running in it.

2nd November

Today we did a lot of editing to the animation, animation always takes a while as as you have to always render it before you can watch it back and see what you have changed to it. We uploaded and background of skyand land that we drewourselves as we as just going to use a plain white background but we then thought over it and decided a drawn background would look a lot better. We also added clouds to the background to reflect the emotions that the main characters are going through to show pathetic fallacy.
