Blog Hiatus. Research and planning will continue.

I'm sadly going on Holiday to South Africa for Christmas, and my biggest worry is work, but i have it covered, on both ends, even though it will be very rear for me to be online, so i will do my video taking over their collect outfits when I'm there and also learn and discover new ways to improve the video, and this end of the work, the people I'm going to working with will do the location shot and also,  getting everything else wrapped up, in the new year will valiantly return and we will do the list of things before the 14th of January.

• Test music video

1. Voice over, different languages, story line

• Shot testing, for example using a dolly.
• Comparing and being inspired by Johannes Greve Muskat

1. 'Day after' as inspiration for the music video. Black and White and genre, and  then go back and compare later with finished product.

• After effects and photoshop.

1. Alpha Matte words.
2. layering words on top of each other.
3. Glitch effect.

• Introductions to the characters, with make up and outfits, all of them different changes. then commentary on each of them.
• Looking at the genre of work, and how to portray it.
• rating it.
• Look at the Theories + Mulveys.
•  filming of effects i.e smoke, paint, water.
• Film project probably take up to 3 days the most. 

I'll be back

rushes and expirementing

So due to not having some of the things for filming, I decide to do some test shots and new ways to use the tripod, using the leaning away and forward movement  and then testing  match on action over simple movemnts and imroving the prevous hair flip movement to ad more dimension by adding a diffrent shot to them. i also expirment with the best type of lighting in the enviroment.

Commentary 

jeanine

This is Jeanine, I am looking at defacing the twins in the music film so they can be unknown faceless figures and looking at hairography and how hair obscureing someones face is very abtrast and masked beautifuly because of the flow.

The hair works effect

This is a test shot of hairography and the mood it gives to the video, I loved the placing I pictured as it was so bright it made the person look pure and still then the movment takes a turn to something warped and almost inner turmoiled yet relieving.

Audition response

After looking at all the auditions and speaking with the candidates, I realized that most of them were fantastic in their performances but the struggle was with time, most of the girls had other school work to do and weren't available when we are going to be filming. Shannon is very shy so even though she is available she doesn't want to participate in being filmed and would rather help with being the camera person, suggesting that I'd be in the music video not only because I would have time to but also because elf my skills in Drama.  So that's what we agreed on.
