magazine adverts

these two magazine digipak adverts are what i will be aiming mine to look like as it has the band name as the main focal point and it gives reviews and info about the cd release and info about the songs. i also like how there isnt a picture used in either of these adverts as just an album cover is used on one and the other is just the iconic stone roses symbol which is powerful enough as the stone roses are a founding band in the music industry as they have influenced the likes of oasis and the verve.

digipak ideas

these are a few digipak ideas that i might follow when i create my digipak, i like the way the desert rose cd digipak is set out with the two picture panels and the cd in the middle, i think this is the digipak i will imitate as our song will only have the one cd.

synopsis

The Music video we have chosen is based around a narrative which portrays the messages that the song sends out about values and moods it creates rather than focusing solely on the artist itself. The Video is set in various locations involved with everyday life seen through a series of flashbacks throughout the narrative showing what the protagonist’s life was actually like.

The narrative is centralised around the protagonist, 18 year old Robert Roswell who has been knocked down by a careless driver who leaves Robert Dying all alone in the middle of the road. On his death bed the audience are given a glimpse into his sad and lonely life seen through a range of flashbacks. In the last scene the narrative comes back to the present were we see him close his eyes for the final time.

We have chosen to use a narrative to portray the song because we feel that it will have a more powerful and effective impact on the target audience and also will create a melancholy and sombre mood to better compliment our song choice.

locations

Location list

Wyke college- the front of the college is a prfect location for the music video as t reinforces the verisimilitude of the music video as it is a realistic place for the events to happen. alos our target audiece can relate to the situation and surroundings.


Dining room- this location is neccassary for the family eating scene to show how the familymistreats the protagonists. the dining room needs to really have the protagonist singled out and centred at the headof the table to symbolise his loneliness.


Quiet street-for this scene various health and safety issues come into play. as we are runing somebody over,attention could be brought to the fact that passers by may think there has been a real accidents to aviod getting in trouble with the police we ether need ot film at an early time or imform the police and the public in the surrounding area.



Function room-This room dosnt have to be to big as we only really need to use one of the walls to create the effect we are looking for. As we are having a cake with a candle this is a health and safety issue of either getting burnt or causing a fire.
