Further Comparisons For My Evaluation

George ezra comparison (Listen to the Man):

both have artist included in narrative? follow artist - hand held - I follow imogen.
both include lip syncing (lots of very good!!) and guitar
His videos more performance based mine more narrative based.
pans - which I try but dont really work :s
He has a break from song - just talking explains whats happening in the video more.
I use fades - not very common

Jake Bugg (Lightning Bolt):

blurry
hand hand very wobbly!
cuts of him singing and playing guitar
cuts are quite fast - mine are slower, show more narrative.


Black and white seems quite common - I used colour.
Also tend to follow the artist mostly - I follow the partner, only really charlie when he's playing

Changes To Music Video

Things I need to change:

  • redo mirror scenes as they are shaky and doesn't look natural - imogen look at charlie.
  • make reference to the candles later on after "rain scenes" so the narrative makes sense? (not as important)
  • fix the chorus - still shot reverse shot? 
  • have charlie singing so I can lip sync - more of him 
  • more obvious change in different boyfriend - different setting? 
  • get charlie to sing i just want my everything + why cant you just let him go  lying to yourself
  • need to do photos for polaroid scenes
  • film Imogen walking away from charlie - all the rest of that sang?

Final Digipak

This i the second draft of my digipak:

I have changed one of the panels that had a photo of a guitar on it. I did this because I was advised it looked a bit too similar and it would probably look more effective to have a different image there to make it more interesting and eye-catching. It is the same image I used for my magazine advert as it is an eye-catching image and still puts emphasis on the guitar. However, I'm not sure if it looks as effective in black and white. 

Final Magazine Advert


This is the new draft of my magazine advert.


I much prefer this draft as the image is a lot better than before. I was advised my old image looked quite flat and it might be better to have him playing the guitar. I also like this image as the background is out of focus and the guitar is in focus which still puts emphasis on the guitar as important to his music and makes the image more eye catching and interesting. I also think the white font looks better as it stands out a lot more. I have also added a drop shadow to make it bolder.
