"The internet is a vital part of the construction and
research. The internet allowed me to research into existing indie rock bands
and the music videos they produce through websites such as Youtube. Youtube has
helped research and construct my music video a lot; I was able to upload my own
videos to youtube which allowed me and Liam to show other students our work for
feedback.
Furthermore, our research would have been not as strong
without the use of social media. The social media allowed us to see what our
demographic would be and what methods there was on selling music and attracting
an audience. I also gained unique selling points for my digipak through looking
at bands on social media.
Without the use of looking at images online I would have
struggled a lot with my Digipak, the internet allowed me to grab and use
existing images to help make my digipak such as the template and the structure
of it.
During production, we used a 1200D to film all our footage
on. Having access to a good camera helped with making a successful and creative
music video. I was also able to take professional looking photos when using the
1200d for my digipak."
The school also gave us access to final cut pro, an editing
programme. The programme is simple but leaves shots cut together perfectly and
looking as professional as the footage we took. We was able to make our video
fast paced by using quick cuts which Final Cut enabled us to do this.
