Filming Diary


These where from the first day of filming when we where filming the speed dating scene and setting it up waiting for people to come and making sure the framing was all okay. We filmed more people than we needed to just to make sure we had enough footage and people.


This was from the second day of filming just after we filmed the bedroom scene. We where filming her running down the stairs what can be a safety hazard but it all went okay I didn't want to get to much wall in but I think it looked okay in the end.

These are the conventions of what a magazine album advert would have. I will try to adhere to what they are when creating y own advert for my album it will have similar colour scheme and pictures to make a connection between them.

Make up and shot location

This is some of the make up used when we was filming as in when she put it on in the video and when the other shots where filmed as well.

This is the mirror we used to film one of the shots we tried to clean it put it didn't work very well so you can tell there is still some smudges when the filming was done. I like doing the shot in the mirror because it was like a reflection on herself and it matches the song and the rest of them music video of what she is going through.


This is from the final shot we did that day of her running down the stairs I had to get the right angle where there is not to much wall but there isn't just the stairs and to much of the coats in the background.

Ancillary Text Ideas


These are some magazine adverts for music albums I will be taking inspiration from these not in the colours and stuff because some of them are not in the genre I would like but in design and layout of the advert. I think the best way to do this one would be medium long shot with the text above and below the picture.

These are CD covers mainly from pop genre so I will be taking ideas from these and seeing what colour schemes they are using. There is a lot of them with just the face what I think might be a good idea because it will be easy but it also looks good.

This is the album name I chose and I wanted to see what it looked like in different fonts and which one looked the best and I like them all to be honest but the first one I think I like the most and teh one I am most likely to use.
