After spending alot of time to try and make my digipack perfect, i realised that other members of a2 media were doing different to me, i forgot to put disk desgin on the pack, and just placed the background, and when i went to create this it wouldnt let me.
Another problem is i didnt use my common sense and realise that rough trade and Song bgm are two completely different record labels, so i need to go back and change that.
Also i missed out the terms and conditions (what i call it) so i need to change that.

using final cut pro
These are two screen shots that are evidence of the process that i went through to complete the music video.. before i was used to final cut pro this looked really hard to use, but now that i am getting the hang of it, it looks a little less confusing.

Making of my music video
It was the first time i used final cut pro. And to know that i had the oppertunity to use such good quality equipment like the proffessionals in the media world, i was not going to let it down. I sat for hours on end working out how to use it, and use effects, i learned the basics and worked my way up, i felt like i was in the real world making this for a company, it came to me that i could do it.
I sat by the mac for ages, i cut out all the mistakes and made it into as much detail, i did this so much that i became obsessed, i was continuelsy using it, all the hours i had to spare, the song was played so much that i know it inside out now. It took a long time to get used to, but now i got the hang of it i officially hate the original, 'I movie.' As a media student i have grown to learn so much more.

Dairy entry
After a long stressfull time we have finally managed to film our studio scene, and get everyone to film with us on the fiollowing monday so that we can do the rest of our filming for example shoot in the characters bedroooms and up london. So that when we come back of the holidays all we need to do is edit our filming.
I hope that the filming goes to plan..
Also i have been researching the denotations and connotations of a music video, this has helped me, so that when i come to filming the next time, i can relate props to a meaning, for example in the studio filming i blew balloons up, these balloons were a represenation of colours and fun and party, basically having a good time, which reflects on the characters personality.

Journal
Overall
Since I was put into a group with Luke to start my Music Video, we have been planing to the extreme, making sure we have covered all the aspects, we have identified the theme of the music video, and decided pacifically what we wanted to do for each shot. We are now ready to shoot for the music video, i feel as though we are prepared for any situations that may occur. \We have made a a story board, and animation, we have also made a mood board to help us identify what type of theme we want. We now know what costumes we want, who we want in our band. The characteristics of each band member, and have clearly highlighted the props and locations.

My First Journal
GCSE
I started studying Media in the year 10, GCSE Course, where I was with the wrong croud and would settle to do anything, i would just sit at the back of the class with my friends and moan about working, but then i realised over the first year that i was interested in media and it was developing around me. I grow my interest in Media and in year 11 i knew it was my time to prove to myself that i had an inspiration, and i infact have, Media has inspired me and has effected me possitively.
AS Level
The following year i took on media in A-level and knew that it had so much more to offer, me and as a B student i would be silly to drop the oppertunity to grow even more, the year of 12, has made me more aware of the big media world that i can tell whether a film is going to be good via its cover, and advertisement. As a class we were all pu into teams of fours, and i feel i became the leader of the team, and had mos control, inputted more than the others and was ahead of my work, the task for our portfolio of the year was to produce a Opening Title Sequence inwhich i decided would be set n y house with three members of my family as the main characters, our video was successful because we all got on as a team, and motivated eachover and i felt confortable, as well as the other members to speak my mind and say what needed to be added, half way through the making of the video we lost some footage and had to reshoot it, this was no longer a problem because it looked much better than before becuase we wanted to do so much more with it. Although i felt like a control freak i was happy because it went to plan and although one member didnt pertisipate as much as the rest of us, i was rewarded with a B again! but when it came to studying for my exam, i didnt do well at all, exams are not my best spot, infact exams are my weakness and because of this i got a E for my exam totally my year grade to a C.
Where I have progressed
I have been rewarded with the 'most improved' award, becuase of my progress through out the years, and have been nomitated for best blogspot, and best opening title sequence.
What i aim to do in the future of my media world
Media is my inspiration and i have full control of it, and i am determined to be part of what makes the Media what it is today, and what it will be in the future, i aim to push myself to the limit in year 13, where we will be studying Music Videos, this is what i was studying for my GCSE course when i recieved an B grade, so i am determined to get a better grade this year!

Diary Entry
As we will be making our own music video next year, we are now tasked to help young music students make a music video for the music they had created, we need to get this video created within 5 weeks, my media class split up into twos/threes and joined a group year sevens studying media, we then had to design a music video for their 25 second music tune. i feel this group was very enfusiastic about the music video and were giving us some very imanginary ideas to put towards the music video. there for the next group of year eights we had were rather quite and were concerntrating on getting their music perfect.
group one- over the past couple of weeks me and my partner Latisha have been working with four girls to make a music video, their music is very updated and will be good to work with because the beat is attractive. In the end we as a group decided to make a day dream video, were a young girl is on a field with her fello friends and she goes into a day dream because the atmoshphere is dull, in her day dream she looks up and all her friends are from different cultures and are listening to funky music, each friend is a different character for example a dude, a hypee, and a maracoon dancer. this idea came new from the original idea of having a house party that transforms from being boring to being the best party ever, but obviously this was impossible to follow through becuase the video needs to be done in school fo health and safety reasons.
group two- group two was completly different to group one, as group two is quiet and doesnt really speak out ideas to us, they are more interested to getting their music perfect, the music is very basic and rather repeated, me and my partner first thought it reminded us of an emotional rollercoaster as it would beat up then dull down, so the next meeting we had with this group we decided that the best plan was to create a love scene were one girl is waiting for her lover to come. as the music is only goes on for a short amount of time and we would not have enough time to make the video extreme.
