Cover Activity

In today's lesson we were given photos (JPEGs) of a teacher in our college, we had to change these boring and dull images into an album cover. We used Adobe Photoshop to make the canvas, then placed the images onto the canvas. This was our tutorial with Photoshop and getting used to how to edit and create. As you can see, I used many effects on the artist. I used stencil font which I thought suited the image as its all mainly outlines and no colour. I used the same font on the back of the album for the tracks as I wanted to keep it constant. I also added a barcode. Not the most professional album cover, but it was just me getting used to Adobe Photoshop for my real digipack.

Feedback from rough cut

After having shown our rough cut music video to our teacher, we decided to implement a few changes to our overall media product. For instance,  we decided to film more base tracks  so that the quality of of lip syncing we appear more realistic.  However, we also kept various things like the intro to our video because the shot showed the view from South Bank of Big Ben and it is a well known place.


 Our group changed,

This is one  of our locations, Old Street. It is here that we are filming our base track for our music video.


 


The view from South Bank. We used this location because it has a back drop of the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben. 






Trafalgar Square. This is where we filmed David in the center of the area so that he would stand out in his orange boiler suit.
