digi pack and website

Digi pack

At first glance we immediately know that the house colour is purple and of multiple shades of it due to the ‘space/galactic’ theme which fits well with the title being discovery as people are still yet to discover what’s in space.
Tinie Tempah is centred largely on the front colour with a glow around him, this gives off a holy importance to the album. In his arms it appears he is holding a city. this could imply that he has discovered cities and has all the power in the palm of his hands maybe?
You can also clearly see Tinie Tempahs jewellery, from the glasses to the bracelet and the watch. all of which fit well with the conventions of rap as its commonly shown in rap videos.
On the back the space theme is spread throughout and the bold white text helps contrast it so that you can see the text clearer, also on the back is the generic bar code.

Here is an example of a groups website within the same music genre. This is Gorgon City’s webpage: http://www.gorgoncity.com/
Some noticeable conventions that I took into consideration were:

Design – Its design was simple and had a house colour which ran through the large image of the group and its logo.
Tabs and links – on the top bar there are clear tabs to direct you to what you are looking for. Down below in the bottom right corner
Simplicity – Which each click the page drops down further to each section which is a nice transition and appealing to the eye.
Record Label – Along with terms of use, cookie info there is the display of the record label.

This is the front (right) back (left) and spine (middle) of my digi pack i have created.

And here is the inside of the digi pack. i have used images from the music video to express continuity throughout all media. The front cover is a very symbolic scene that most viewers will remember as it is the most dramatic and the couple break up in such a sudden way. on the inside the top and bottom was a vehicle that features a lot in the music video, aswell as the establishing scene of a rural area i thought due to the clouds the lyrics ‘if the rain was coming’ fits really well in the digi pack. Lastly where the cd sits i have an image of the two actors holding hands. This is a refference to the srtist ‘Tchami’ as one of tchami’s house logo is a picture of a
hand in an obscure way.

Here is our website, as its only a image its more difficult to describe. however, again i used that main image of the break up which has continuity throughout the video, digipack and the website. the website offers all information, details, surveys and more on tchami and the video and ourselves!

Location: Werrington Skate Park.

Main Pitch + Feedback

Storyboard

Roles, Actors, Costumes

Kane Gracey (Friend)
17
Studies dance at Peterborough Regional College and also studied dance throughout GCSE’s at Ken Stimpson Community School. His studies help compliment our music video as he is learning the genre ‘House’ right now! Kane says to include house dance moves such as ‘Jacking’
Kane will be wearing casual going out clothes while ‘cutting shapes’ but then will switch outfits in party scenes.

Tilly Sharman (Friend)
17
Tilly is in full time employment but at school she studied drama for GCSE, She also drives an Audi. Her flashy car helps build an aesthetic for a ‘classy’ girl which we are trying to portray in her character.
Tilly will be wearing formal clothing.

Tilly will be wearing a ring which will symbolise the ‘Promise’ of their relationship

There is a party scene which will involve a large group of friends.

Risk Assessment

We took a few scenes at our local skatepark, we had to be careful that when kane was dancing that there was nothing he could slip on. Winter was dawning when filming therefore we had to make sure there was none around him.

In the scenes where Tilly is driving we had to ensure there was no one in the car park (just incase no idiots tried to interrupt)

Roles

Me and my partner Luke Rizzo will be directing the video and will be editing the film. We will divide the editing, directing and filming evenly. I have access to a mac which has ‘IMovie’ which i believe is better at editing than the software we offer at school so i will have the majority of control of the editing as i have more experience. Where as Jake will film more as I will be playing a small role in the video itself therefore I will take main control of filming. I am more than comfortable to film as I filmed all of my AS media project and feel as if I have the necessary skill set to produce a high quality music video. We will both produce the music video together and both have an even say in the direction of the production.

Actors

Other than the main actors listed above we will be using a number of our friends for the party scenes to create the party vibe which compliments the music and then using two other friends a boy and a girl to argue which visually narrates the lyrics to give a deeper meaning to the song.

Costumes

The song appeals to the younger audience therefore will be wearing outfits which reflect teenagers/ young adults exclusive fashion to both appeal and inspire the audience.
