Photoshop tools used for CD cover

When creating our front cover i used a range of different tools on photoshop to create it. On the front i used most of the tools in the picture. The tools that were freqeuntly used were text and erase, to create different styles. I also used when writing the text on the wall. A bending tool so it looks like it is graffiti on the wall.

With the inside cover, i did the CD it's self. I used a photo of  we took when shooting our film. I first used the shape (circle) tool to cut out a template and match it to the CD size. I then used the smudge tool blend in the background colour of the photo and the background of the rest of the CD. The rest of the tools i used for this was: the smudge/blur tool, eraser, crop, text, hand and finally the shape tool.

Props that we used in our music video

Within our music video we used a lot of different props. For the main singer/actor we first used glasses and microphone, to make him look older and 70s style.

The props we used for the trap was simple a board that we made that says welcome to A town called malice. we also used money for one of the scenes.

Different actors

Unfortunately our actor was unable to shoot our music video again so we have had to use me as the main actor in. Nothing has changed aspect from the costume instead of a red velvet suit, which was the last actor. The actor now (me) will be wearing a box late 60s/early 70s style and trousers with shoes.

This is the type of suit that the new actor will wear.

Re-shooting

On Saturday the 7th of January we re-shot our whole film. due to implications with our actor refusing to reshoot. Fortunately I know the song quit well so I said I will do it. Overall the filming went well and we managed to film the whole film with no rain fall, as it was constantly threatening to rain.

Weather report

This is the weather report for our filming day, which we have decided to be tomorrow and Matt will be the actor as he knows the song very well and it will be more suited to the image we are looking for.

re-shooting

unfortunately over the christmas break we were unable to all have the chance of meeting up and re-shooting, so now we are going to have to re-film within the next two weeks so we can edit and finalize our work.

Re-filming

Today me and Matt have decided that we need to re-film asap. We're just waiting for work schedules and actors to confirm but hopefully it'll be next sunday.

Today we're just working on getting the footage we can use lip synced properly as it was a bit out when we played it earlier today. We're also thinking of new ideas to film when we're next out so that we have a wide range of choice to put into the film, so that we're not just using footage because its all we've got.
