This is my group in the process of composing our Animated Storyboarding which I started working on in the leson this also helped us deligate who's doing which role within the group.
And below are pictures of the final copy which we are in the process of making into an animated film on final cut -
Above is a short section of film of me annotating into our story boards what is happening in each shot and why we chose to have this at this point in the video so was it because of lyrics or because of the music ect...
And finally a copy of the finished product this is our Animated Storyboard of A Single Moment of Sincerity.
Based on the genre (rock) we would like the artist in the video to look very stereotypical of a rock band and this will mean following conventions of an artist. This will include:
Black t-shirts with gothic graphics on it
Skinny jeans, various colours
Straightened hair, rough/jagged
Vans (Canvas shoes)
Tape (accessory)
Anti-Christ like jewellery
Make-up, foundation, eyeliner, painted finger nails
Tattoo's
Dark hoodies
Wooly hats/Tight baseball caps
Piercings eg. Nose, ears, lips, eyebrows
This is what my group and I will encorporate in order to achieve the most realistic music video we can. Also, this will build up the relationship between the viewers and the artist as they will know the song is based on thier genre just from seeing how they dress.
This was my teacher assessment from MCU regarding my Research and Planning posts. I agree with the feedback which has been given and the level achieved and have taken the comments on board and have made adjustments accordingly.
This is a copy of our songs lyics which have been annotated by Freddie. He's noted what he thinks the artist is trying to say, sort of the meaning behind the meaning if you will and his overall opinion of the lyrics and what he percieves them to be.
And on some of them he's even noted his ideas about how we could perform/ show the lyrics meanings to the viewer like for instance he's said for the line "Your silence is so haunting, Your words relentless burying in, My heart betrays me for a last first kiss goodbye,Fall asleep and jar one eye". He suggested filming a shot of someone being punched on a bed and then leaving them so they look like their dead".
We chose this particular song because it ticked a lot of our boxes in terms that it doesn't have a video, it's a good representation of our chosen genre both lyrics wise and the band and how they perform and most of us are fans of the genre and learnt the lyrics and song quickly.
And below are a copy of the lyrics: -
False tales lies of a washed up prom queen
Why’d you tell me everything was fine?
Everything was okay?
Get on your knees
Oh, why you tore me up?
No, why everything’s dead inside
Oh, you could’ve told me, at least I would’ve known
No, you should’ve told me and carved it in my bones
Tear out my eyes to remove the gift of sight
Proves ever cursing still,
the light can’t find us here
Painted red my eyes are burning
And still you hide behind the waves
Your silence is so haunting
Your words relentless, burying in
My heart betrays me for a last first kiss goodbye
Fall asleep,
jar one eye x2
Spilling every lie you’ve spilled before
But I’m not forgiving you
What happened between us,
what can I give to save us
Being righteous isn’t quite enough
What happened between us,
what can I give to save me
These oceans are far between our hearts (these oceans are)
The breathing has got too hard
x2
Scream with the voice of an angel
Lie in the name of the gospel
Smile in the face of your victims,
smile for me
This is my last request to you
Hold my breath
I was clutching on to disaster
Hold my breath
This is a screeshot of us in the process of editing the photos on photoshop but before we did anything to them.
This is my preparation for my photoshop tutorial where we took pictures in order to edit them on photoshop: -
These our our Jpeg images which our group made in class: -
We looked at the conventions of our genre and we decided on an overall black theme which we achieved through dimming and faiding the colour and adding in a black background to bring through the mood whcih we are trying to express in the photos. We also thought about clothing as well seens that not many bands use colour in our chosen genre and if they so it's usually the whole band not just one person.
