Presentation on Evaluation questions

Here is my presentation on our music video for the four evaluation questions that I made using BB flashback software: https://youtu.be/9tACpYrzR0s

PROMOTIONS!!!!!

This is the promotion of our music video .We then needed a larger feedback of an audience. Therefore, so I took a decision to use the help of Web 2.0 and upload the video on Youtube. Then, we realized not everyone uses Youtube as they ask for people to make a an account so we further shared it's link on Facebook since it's our most used social networking site as there are only 5 comments on youtube. The following pictures show the number of comments and likes we received on our video on our very first day. Most of the comments are positive as you can see for yourself but 1 hold criticism of the the guitar scene. We didnt upload in any special day as this topic is not easily discussed.

PROMOTION AND ADVERTISMENT...

Before we were going to release our music video for the audience to see, we made a basic poster and shared that on social media. We chose a picture where our actor walking in a forest in his dreams and is giving an aesthetic feel and a vision for the audience to see. The reason as to why we chose this picture is because it's a very dramatic shot and creates a sense of excitement and mystery as to what's going to happen next. With that, we added the text on to the picture saying 'Music Video Coming Soon'.

MAKING OF THE ANCILLARY TASK DIGIPAK...

I'm making digipak as this the task for us...As we started working on our digipak, we kept in mind the theme our whole project had, But decided to keep it slightly appealing by keeping it in colour. In our music video we had several representative items. So to make it interesting, we decided to keep those.
This is the template we used.

We started by selecting a picture of our artist that we all agreed on to be on the inside right. We imported the picture into our photo editing software. For this we used Adobe Photoshop CS6. We turned it Black and White, and further decreased the amounts of the colours Red, Green, and Yellow, so that our picture gets a richer look.



We then proceeded to apply the edited picture file onto the template. For that we, again, used Adobe Photoshop CS6. To apply this picture, we went into edit, then paste special, and then paste. As the template was in a CD shape, we had to cut out the centre circular region. We did that by selected the Rectangle tool, and then Elliptical Marquee Tool. With this tool, we selected the inner circle, and removed it. This is how it looked so far.




Then we chose the front outside picture, and adjusted it's brightness and contract, and left the colours as they were. After, we added the edited picture onto the template and adjusted it according to how we wanted it to show. Then we simply added the text ''Silence'', which is the name of the song we used, and placed it on top of the cover. We did add the artist's name. We took the inspiration from Demi Lovatos Unbroken album cover.









Moving onto the inside left of the digipak, we chose a still from the video itself from when the actor is sitting on a bench hurt. We edited it's colours in Adobe Photoshop CS6 using Colour Balance. Later, after we adjusted the picture onto the template, we added a verticle barcode

. This is a very conventional item used in a digipak.

RESEARCH ON THE ANCILLARY TASK (DIGIPAK) SAMPLE TEMPELATE.

We wanted to see how a digipak cover is made and want to take an example by the help of the media web 2.0 google which a serach engine.

RESEARCH ON WEBSITES

before starting with our website I wanted to do some research on some websites which are already uploaded.I wanted to go with khalid's website with a little touch of michelle carrillos website aswell.
