CHANGE IN ACTORS


Change of actors: 

On our first day of shooting, one of our actors in the band who was our lead guitarist was not available to perform on this day. Therefore, we then decided to use another person to act in our band as we needed to start filming on this day. We then decided that using a girl would be a perfect replacement for the band. The idea came from thinking of other bands and the first thought that came to my mind were 'The White Stripes'. This was an American band made up of two members one being the lead singer and guitarist who was a male and a female on the drums. They had a very organic and rare star image - firstly as a stereotypical rock band including more than two members and mainly full of males. As well as this, they were always specific in which they wore during live performances. They would only wear red, black or white clothing.




Another band similar to ours are 'Paramore'. The band members are all wearing different clothes and are stood together. We can see their band's star image as a rock band due to the female band member's dyed hair. This is the same as ours as we are using a female in our band who is the drummer.

ORGANIC Coldplay- Viva la Vida In this music video, it demonstrates  a true representation of organic music. it shows the band itself playing all different types of musical instruments symbolises that they have produced the music video to show there natural talent and not because of there visual image. furthermore it also shows sufficient evidence that they have written there own song and they have let there natural talent shine through the lyrics and harmony.

OUR BAND WEBSITE

Image
http://joshspivack1.wixsite.com/mysite When looking at our website for our band we wanted to represent them as an organic and real band. This is why we have gone for the black and white style to give them that authentic image. We have gone for this type of theme throughout all our products including the music video and the digipak. We wanted the star image to come across on the website showing they are a simple band who just want to produce good music for their fans. As well as not having abstract colours to draw in fans as we focused on the music side of our band to increase our fanbase.  Our front page is different to many other bands website similar to ours. We wanted a big bold photo of our band to draw the attention of the audience to the band so they become more recognisable and well known. This is because we want to sell their image as a real and authentic band so we had a black ad white photo of the band in their smart clothes. This draws all the attention to the band in wh

SHOOT DAY

On the first Morning of shooting, were we very lucky to have nice bright blue sky weather, however due to the strong sunlight the filming was effecting due to the number of shadows created by people and camera equipment but on a whole I think we managed it well. Furthermore, the ability to use a drone to film some birds eye shots was another bonus as it added another dimension towards our movie and the viewers perspective. Unexpectedly when filming  we did however come across a problem which was the ride of the vehicle uses in the filming. Due to hard suspension some film was jigging about and quite bumpy which did effect our progress but does mean we have to work extra harder to make the film look professional and get the best features in to add to the 'horror' themed effect. Another problem that occurred on the morning of the filming was the number of vehicles that passed us in our location. This meant filming specific parts look longer then expected and more edite
