Creating the digipak

Origanally we had produced a different back cover but it was withdrawn for being unacceptable on a public website. Although this meant we had lost time, we understood and created a new back cover.

The photo is of the three main character standing at one of the locations. We decided that we wanted to take an urban looking photo to carry on the same stlye and theme of the video. We have decided that the font used for the front cover is exclusively to the natural disater album cover. Adding the exclamation mark, we belive makes the artist name more interesting. We also used special affects in order to made the image darker with higher exposure, this created again a more urban style.










After research we had discovered that the artist Skream! had release several remix tracks and decided that this would be the remix album. We added a natural disaster clip art which emphasised the album name 'Natural Disaster'.

I had visited Amsteerdam October 2011 and had taken the photos of bike park. I decided that we didnt want any text just a image relating to the production; one of the main ideas in the production is old school cycles, which in amsertdam are extremely popular. 

Digipak Layout

Quality of the images was lost but it shows the layout of the images on the case.

Props

A main prop we will be using throughout the the main production will be cycles. We have used 3 road bikes; two 1980's fixie raleigh road bikes and a CBoardman road race road bike.
This where supplied by both me and Craig Wooley, a character in the main production.
We believed this created movement for the characters so we could record a mixture of shots in different locations, making the video more interesting and exciting.
We also used BMX bikes during the skatepark shots, supplied by the riders themselves. This again made the video more interesting.

Rough Cut

First rough cut was viewed by a small number of members in our class in order to receive feedback from whta we had produced. We got some mixed feedback, although the improvements stated were already improvements I had set my self already. 

We will continue to edit the final piece and upload a final version to YouTube.

Editing sessions..

We have viewed all shots and believe we have some footage that we can use in order to produce a music video specific to what we want. Through the use of special affects, video transitions and quick cuts, we can produce and up beat and appealing video.
We will be using Adobe Premiere Pro to edit the shots as this program is one that our group has used before, and we know how to use it.

Production Begins

The weather has been warm, bright and sunny. We decided to take advantage of all the sunny weather and record all the shots for our final piece.
I have organised a few friends to all meet up for a bike ride across Peterborough. We believe this will allow us to gain some really useful shots.
