Evaluation 4: How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?


Research and Planning
As there was only two members of our group communication was easy as well as regular meeting in school, also technologies like our mobile phones, IPad and Laptop to keep in constant communication. We maintained this communication mostly by phone calls and text messages  this is particularly convenient as we both keep our phones on us at most times in the day. As we had use of an IPhone it made lots of tasks very simple for example when we wanted to know the weather for the next week, we asked Siri, which accurately finds a suitable and accurate answer to the question you pose from the internet in seconds. Weather was a key issue in the planning of filming our music video. As we wanted to promote the artists wealth and fame, sunny weather is associated with more positive look. This app allowed us to keep regular check on the weather and when it was best and convenient for us to shoot.Which also made our decision making quicker, again as we both had phones it was easy to stay in touch. This was essential to portray the right image across, no famous artist would stand out in the rain and record a music video, it would of looked amateurish.
The IPhone was also very good because as it allowed us to take as many pictures as we wanted to, where ever we wanted to. We were even able to take behind the scenes footage of what happened behind the cameras, when they are switched off. This is an effective as many artists write blogs or maintain video blogs to keep in constant communication with their fans, as it is them who are promoting them. It is very easy from an IPhone 5 to take and then upload to any social networking site an image or video. Also as you can upload the media to any social networking site it is in the public domain, millions of people access the internet and even more are on social networking sites like Twitter or Facebook. This means that millions of potential fans and customers will look at whatever is on the general display (The Wall). By uploading Behind the scenes footage it instantly creates a buzz for the next promotion the brand promotes.
A problem we faced when we went to film up London is that it is a heavily populated small area and is sometimes confusing on the roads to figure out how to travel to places. Before we decided to travel on the train we tried out the IPhone maps on the quickest routes to the locations we wanted to film at. A feature of this function is that it gives additional travel information, like toll charges potential road works and speed cameras. These car expenses and risk factors lead us to the decision to us public transport which turn out cheaper and easier to commute.
 Another problem we faced however when deciding to use public transport is that we wanted to know the times and prices of the trains on the go whilst shooting, so we could decide when extraneous variables out of our control arose on the day, like too many people standing or walking in the desired location, of like in our music video when there would be skate boarders in South bank and how to get there for the time that they were performing.
It also kept us updated with the train activity and delays. This way we could work around any problems on the tubes and over grounds. Purchasing day travel cards online allowed us to travel all around London to our locations. As a group online booking supplied us with student discounts. Once again this aided our budget. A map of train routes was also supplied to us on the national rail website to guide us.
Google was used predominantly as a search engine. It is what the preloaded web browser on all the computers we had access to, it is very easy to use and also uses many features, such as Google maps. We used Google maps to work out predictions of potential travel expenditure around the various London locations. Also tools like Google image enabled us to get a quick and detailed look at all of these locations with out hoping they look right for the general themes of the music video and film, we knew accurately and currently what they looked like and could therefore easily picture how it would look in shot.

Vital to making our music video realistic we had to ensure that it would of kept with the same general conventions as official Drake videos.We used DrakeVEVO page to view the whole portfolio of his videos, it also had news topics and links to other sites relating to the artist, for example there was a link to go onto Amazon and purchase any merchandise from YMCMBA, this is the brand that Drake and other famous rappers like Lil Wayne andNicki Minaj as recognised with.
This allowed us to understand how different artists marketed their products in different ways. Understanding the layout of an artists website also gave us ideas of how to lay out our blog. This included colour scheme, labeled links, and also the set pattern followed throughout the site. Predominantly featured on the websites were the artists names. Displayed in different fonts inspired us ideas for logos, titles, and other font used throughout our project.

These pictures all show an aspect of Drakes life, from the bottle of alcohol the the 'xo' in cocaine and the attractive female. This shows how Drake is a rapper and part of his life is the party scene, which is also the main conventions of rap life and is often what is portrayed in rap music videos. However the difference between the convention and Drake is that his wealth and name is through hard work and not drug dealing. His lifestyle is supported by him working hard not being a 'Gangsta'.

 

Construction of the Music video
Progressing from last year as a group, we knew that by using more new media technologies we would gain higher marks as the quality of our video would be higher. We were able to show off our technical skills in a variety of aspects, for example in the filming and editing. We used professional software and equipment to create a high quality final piece,we have built on our editing skills from last year, allowing a more realistic finish. 

 

In our video we used a Cannon 600d to shoot the footage. One of the issue that we were faced with last year in the production of our thriller, was the poor quality of the camera, they were not as good as some of the other groups and there were hugh differences in look in comparison. Their videos looked more professional. As we knew that to sell this video to the targeted audience we wanted it to look as realistic and professional as we could. This camera is HD ready and a 1080i, meaning that the frames per second is quicker, meaning a more fluent picture. The camera was lightweight and portable with a long battery life, also it fit to the tripods that were provided by the school, thisa made it easy to use and it was a better quality. Luckily at the time that we shot there was not problems with light as it was in the middle of a spring day, and light was good. We also used this camera to take some of the photos for the Digipak and the magazine advert. As the quality of the pictures was higher, we were able to edit the pictures to a better standard than last year.

Once all footage was complete using an apple laptop we uploaded our footage. I-photo stored all our images and videos in a specific folder that was easily found, Called Anoop and Matt Music video. We were also careful about when to put work into the folder, as unfinished work will not flag up, and be seen easily meaning we may half finish work.

 

Final Cut pro was the editing software we decidied to use. Last year we used Pinnacle HD, this was fast and simple editing, however it wa slimited in the functions in which were available in filters, cuts, effects. Final cut is used by many professionals within the music industry. This took a bit of getting used to. As it was such a leap from our editing software to this professional software we had to take some time to familiarise ourselfs. After experimenting around with the magnitude of effects and the corrector tool, we were able to change the contrasts, brightness, saturation ect. We managed to find a tool that matched the setting off all the same clips and were able to sustain a set effects scheme to look professional.

We also used Photshop pro, although one of us did not know how to use it fully, we learnt together to create the digipak and magazine advert from the pictures we took when filming. Although the pictures were high quality we had to add different filters, fonts and other information to make sure to it looks like an advert and not just a picture. This was hard as Photoshop takes some time to understand what icons mean what and how to use them to gain to best effects such as blending, over laying and cloning. One feature that we enjoyed to use was the retouch tool. This allowed us to remove any unwanted blemishes to make the artists look flawless, this is important to look professional. 

Evaluation/Feedback
As we both has access to face book, twitter and the frequent use of Youtube, made our evaluation tasks easier to promote and compare with other videos from around the world from a variety of artists. After we had promoted our video, we wanted to gain feedback, not only from our interpersonal interviews and questionnaires, but also from a mass index of participants, there is no better way to do this but to used social networking sites. We carried on the brand that we has used last year 'SwagStar' media productions to upload recent activities of the group and artist and information about release dates. All feedback was taken into consideration for any future projects. Although we wanted to used Youtube to upload the video, we couldnt as we would usffer with copyright issues as there is already an offical music video for started from the bottom, this created some problems as we still wanted the video to accessed by a mass audience. After research into the most accessed uploading site apart from youtube and Vimeo arose as the most popular.

Social networking is global and therefore allowed people to share our video to others around the world. We were constantly able to update our followers on facebook as whatever we posted would be automatically visible on their timelines whenever they logged onto Facebook. We used twitter for uploads and to keep the audience updated with news and to keep fans interested. Although new twitter is expanding rapidly, with the amount of celebrities logged on and twitting, to their fans or about information that fans will want to here, to follow this convention we set up our own twitter page.

Evaluation 1

Evaluation Question 1- In what ways does your media product use, develop or change forms and conventions of real media?

Throughout our music video and the promotions of the artist, we have wanted to maintain some conventions of a rap video, but also as Drake is a new artist and also raps different to other famous rappers. He incorporates vocals, melodies and harmonies. In the same way we wanted in the video to highlight his new and different style in the video differently. Most rap Videos contain violence, scenes of a sexual nature, drug use and derogatory insinuations of women and lesser men to the rappers. The title of the song we chose is 'Started From The Bottom' the idea behind this song is about being thankful and rejoice with your good loyal friends, your love for them and how you would be nothing without them and vice versa. We a conventional way to shoot this video would have been to have a staged party, with a crew behind our characters of friends pointing at the camera, alongside with footage of the artist singing different parts of the song in different locations. Although this works for world famous rappers, we did not have the budget to gather a group of people who would have taken it seriously and made it look effective. Therefore we decided change the conventions in our video slightly. We shot at various London attractions like embankment, london eye and big ben,
The music industry is a very competitive industry and is hence why artists have to stick out, and offer something new, a new way of performing and listening to music. Drake offers this, and therefore we have decided to play on the audiences memories. The front cover and back cover displays pictures of London. This is a famous City and the landmarks are known throughout the world, especially in the UK. When you look at pictures you create an instant association to how you know what it is or how someone has told you. This attraction will be a unique selling point and help Drake also to stand out as the covers are not of himself of his face, another way we have adapted the usual conventions of a music video, it also links in with the lyrics of the song of being a journey. 

 We have been inspired by a number of music videos and even films, these insiprations allow us to come up with orginal ideas for our music video. one aspect we were inspired by is the film Project X there party scenes created an image in our heads for some of the lyrics in our song with people dancing and jumping in slow motion, this inspired us, however we wanted it to be more formal than the character of this film, so during the embankment scene we got Anoop to dance to kind of replicate this.


Also the music video of headlines inspired us where he raps and its with his whole crew, we want to mirror this but use the location of an urban ghetto like setting so we used southbank skate pack which was filled with graffiti. Also another one of drakes video inspired us the video Marvins room where clips of Toronto are shown and are colour graded in purple which gives of a very aesthetically pleasing image, we were inspired by this imagery which allowed us to develop our ideas to create something like this by filming traffic in london.


In this music video we what to emphasis the character, showing how they have 'made it', they have reached all of the goals they set out in life. In the music video there are many moving shots of Anoop rapping , this conveys a suggestion of the popstar rock and roll lifestyle, in the industry this is shown by always at the biggest parties, with the most attractive woman, and showing to everyone how much money they are worth which we wanted to go against. In this video as we want to convey Drake as different shooting the scenes as a 1st persons view, what Drake is seeing through his eyes, this eliminates a boasting reference. As the Title of the song is 'Started From The Bottom' which is the love that you have with your friends, showing your loyalty and commitment and showing that no matter the fame and success you remain humble.

 

The car scene of Anoop rapping in the back of the car has reference to Drakes official video 'Headlines'The idea of going up is shown physically in that video in the elevator, this represents Drakes stuggle to success and struggle in the industryto the top shows success, wealth and fame. We wanted to depict this by the sports car being a luxuray way of travel, as famous people are always current and update. The charcter in the frame  adds to the feel of fame with the reference to how they are always in the spotlight no matter where they go.

As the song already has a music video this gave us some ideas, which we could addapt and create new ones. we had to interpret official music videos by the artist prior to starting ours, to make it realistic it has to suit some of the general conventions of a rap video. The Settings and Locations were carefully thought of before filming to ensure they were conveying the image we wanted, for example it would have been out of place to have an artist we want to convey as famous and wealthy in a small quiet town, it would look out of place and not effective for the target audience. 

Change in song

Originally the song we were going to use was 'Crew Love' by the artist Drake, we did three days filming for the music video but unfortunately the other participant in the filming couldn’t film due to other constraints. We could have cast another person to fit his character but there were no suitable people that we felt portrayed him well and also looked believable not only to us but to our target audience. After a discussion we decided that we need to change our song. The song we chose to change it too was by the same artist Drake and was called 'Stared From The Bottom' we felt that this song would be much better and portrays a creative piece of imagery. As a group we could be more creative when brainstorming ideas for a storyboard rather than the one we used for Crew Love.

Magazine Advert final draft

In our first magazine advert, although we liked it, we also thought that the colours in the background were too bright and distracted the audience from the artist, and the song which are the most important factors in advertising. We then went back to the drawing board to try and think of another idea. We had photos left from our original footage from the song we were going to do originally. We also looked at more advertisements in magazines like The Source, another common trend is the artist is placed although in the middle, the shot is further back to give more of an image of the surroundings. We took this photo on the side of the River Thames, Chelsea Embankment. This is an iconic and prestigous place in a world famous city, this enables the audience to link Drake to fame, wealth. power, prestige and status. We also thought that it would boost this image of fame if he was seen with a fellow rapper, hence why in the picture we have Matt (The Weeknd). Although this artist has nothing to do with the song being promoted, he is a close friend and because of there previous song history they are associated closely together, this also broadens the audience and market share of the promotion. Although one of features we wanted to include was brightness of the colours, we actually in this placed a Amaro filter over the picture, which gives this dusty effect, this was edited on photoshop pro and also insta gram (a portable app, when the picture is taken is loaded for editing on the IPhone). A five-star rating is included to display the success of the single in hope it will attract the audience. Moreover, it is printed in red to stand out from the rest of the advert as it is a major selling point.
The title of the song 'Started from the bottom' is in a clear black 'Fresh' font found on Dafont.com,  which matches the background but also stands out enough from the picture to be recognised and imprinted in the audiences mind. Before the title of the song it staes in the same font that it is a 'debut single' and 'out wednesday' these are two vital peices of infromation to display. The audience will firstly be intrigued by the fact it is a debut single, this interest will be spoken about and therefore the promotion is working. Secondly 'out wednesday', this means that the audience will know when they can view or purchase the single, this is vital as the only reason for promotion is the sell the product, or in our case the debut single. Further more we have added a quote from a well repected and known magazine brand. This certifies to the audience the track, as they are up to date with good music in there industry area, this reassures the audience, at the same time further intriguing the audience.

 Using our research we knew that for the magazine adver t to look effective and to be consistent with the current market conventions, however at the same give another impression. Our main inspiration came from the magazine advert found in Assemble magazine. Below is the advert by Meek Mill, his album title 'Dreams and Nightmares'. The artist is displayed in the middle of the picture, this makes the audience automatically recognise with the artist and thinking about his music that is already or newly out. We thought that this style of picture, as this is commonly seen throughout the music industry, to be the most effective way of promoting our artist in a magazine. The facial expression is also an important factor of both adverts. Below Meek Mill is serious and straight-faced, with his eyes and lips having no movement or definition. This shows to the audience that he has a very serious and confident outlook, or he is trying to portray his simple complex look. We wanted to completely copy this look, it is also seen throughtout the music industry, it works and we didnt want to go against this. The artist below explains the title of his song through the picture, of the left hand side over his shoulder represents the 'Dreams' aspect. The colour blue represents calm, goodness and power hence why it runs into the other side. This other side represents the 'Nightmares' illustrated by the red colour signifying danger, evil. In our magazine advert we wanted to stay consistent with some aspects of this advert, however we decided to represent the'Started from the bottom', The background is power, fountains suggest wealth power and status, attributes we wanted the artist to personify. Also it is located in Marble Arch in Central London, these are famous and have been viewed by countless tourists and Londers, this creates an interpersonal relationship with some of the audience, again trying to appeal to as many people as possible. The font although different sizes and shades of colour is the same as the album font, this makes it easy for the audience to recognise where and what the album will look like. By Using 'OUT NOW!' we wanted to almost pressure the audience to purchase the album or at least find out more about it. By having a quote from The Source, it adds a realism to the advert, a valued creditation. Also with the twitter and facebook pages and links on the advert, it means that the audience can automatically access his web pages which have merchandise, tour dates and interpersonal fan infromation, this opens another market to the audience they didnt know about.








 

Drake Advertisement Analysis

Firstly I am going to look at the facial expressions. The facial expressions of drake in this magazine can come across to be very serious and straight-faced, with his eyes and lips having no movement or definition. This shows to the audience that he has a very serious and confident outlook, or he is trying to portray his simple complex look. With drake looking like this the audience can see drake in many ways and he can be portrayed in more than one emotion or expression. With the serious look on his face it, it could be to show how determined drake is for success, or it can show to the audience how diverse and sophisticated drake is. Overall the facial expressions in this magazine advertisement are crucial in determining whether the magazine cover will be affective and successful when released.

Another subject of the poster I am going to analyse is the character type. The characters type can be summed up in one sentence. He is a sophisticated man who can be seen to have a serious attitude, with a certain persona distinguishing his image and identity. Also he can be seen to support the text of the advertisement, as it looks like drakes image is ‘Complex’ and adds that certain sophistication to his image. Drake can be seen to wear clothes that look plain and simple, but the image is sophisticated because of drake is wearing blacked out glasses. You cannot see his eyes, and people say that eyes tell the image. Not seeing the eye’s means you cannot see what he is focusing on or if he is portraying any emotional.
Another aspect of the magazine advertisement, is the way in which the gesture and posture. The man seen is this magazine cover can be seen to standing there in a complex and confident posture. His hands are in his pocket and he is leaning back showing to the viewer that his outlook and image is a relaxed and confident with that added gesture of style. Also the gesture of the man in the advertisement is that he is standing there with broad shoulders and showing that he is proud standing there looking very sophisticated. This is very crucial in making the advertisement a success because it gives a strong image to the viewer that this artist is very confident and stylish.
Props have been used to create effect and images in the advertisement. These small items can create a lot of connotations and give of crucial images to make the magazine cover a success. A prop in the magazine advert is the blacked out glasses. This gives the connotation of the man being stylish and cool. This is effective on the audience because it shows that the man has ambition to become successful and a role model in fashion. In this magazine cover there are not a lot of props, which means that the magazine is successful because of the other aspects of the advert.
The clothing that has been used on the man in the advert has been selected carefully to show different connotations and meanings. The clothing that has been used in this advertisement is very casual with an added sophisticated image. The man is wearing blacked out sunglasses that add that certain sophistication because it shows style and also hides and emotions show through the eyes. The other items of clothing that have been used are the jumper and smart jeans that ‘Drake’ is wearing shows that he has style and can be a fashion role model, also at this time of the year that image looks to be coming in fashion, which shows that drake can keep up to date with changing fashion trends.
The setting that has been used in this magazine has been electronically put together as there isn’t an actual setting. The background is featured to have many bright lights that are delusional and feel as if he is moving through the air at a speed and the lights have become misted. This is very effective to the viewer as it gives the viewer a sense of pace in the magazine and also will show that drake’s pace of music could be fast or pacey. Another aspect of the setting is the ground, which is seen to be a grass image. The grass setting in the magazine cover, could conjure to the audience that he is in the middle in a normal setting and the fast pace of light and society is buzzing around him. This is effective and creates a good point to the audience.
Overall the magazine cover of the artist drake is very successful in promoting and displaying the new album coming out. This has been successfully advertised.

Magazine Advert Analysis

Magazine Advertisement Analysis

Above are two Make up Advertisements in Closer and Heat, Both of these adverts have some running conventions through them. Both of the adverts have an image of a woman wearing the make up being advertised, this is done suggests how beautiful a woman could become with the makeup. There is also an image of the make-up; this is so that in the shops customers can identify the make up out of all of the rest, because it is so good/iconic. Also the text used relates to the makeups selling point, for example top left presents phrases like ‘red that lasts’, this illustrates the USP of the product its durability. When I asked Five female colleague about the effectiveness of these adverts, they all replied saying the same thing, they liked how there was an image of the female with the make up on, also an image of the make-up, They thought that it was ideal because they could identify the make-up easier, this makes them less stressed and shortens the time when looking for the make up in the long isles.

Although Make-up is targeted predominately to females, we feel as though we will be able to incorporate some of the ideas into our Digipak for marketing, by using phrases and text that relates to what we are marketing, for like ‘Take Care’ is the album, with ‘Crew Love’, therefore I think that love and friendship should be featured, but alongside with running with our conventions of the rap video. Also the key element is that we are going to picture Anoop ‘Drake’ in the centre of the advert. The artist is the main selling point; this is what the customers are buying into so this is the most prominent feature.

Why we chose not to film at Blake Hall

After recieving an email allowing us permission to shoot outside the maor house, we went down there with all of our equipment ready to shoot. However we encountered a few problems, although the weather was nice when we started to film we could not see the Artist as there was too much sunlight on the lens, which did not look professional. We tried to shoot from different angles but to have the manor house in the background, which was the most effective shot to suggest power and influence, we couldnt shoot. Also when we got there there was a lot of open planed grass land, which was well kept but did not give an impression of fame and fortune. We wanted the artist Anoop, to match conventions of rap videos for it to look professional, and to gain higher marks.
Also where the house was positioned and where we wanted to place the tripod to gain the most frontal view, there were trees and shrubbery in the way, making it impossible to shoot the shot we wanted, even after adapting the shot, as it did not look professional we decided not to film.
We therefore spoke about going down there on a different night, however we were unsure if even if the weather was spot on, how how we could get in and how much of the artist we could show without manipulating the pixels of the video.  

Focus Group

As a part of our primary research we chose to use a Focus group, this where a variety of different people are asked for their opinion towards something. It is a quick way to find out different views on the medium that a corporation promote. The data gathered although it is qualitative data, can be vconverted into quantitative data, by categorising the types of question, shown through graphs and charts. These can be presented to give statisical information on demand and wants of the target audience. However to be accurate the environment has to be comfortable enough for the participants to answer honestly.  There are of course some pros and cons of using Focus groups.

Advantages include;

• Being able to interact with participants how are linked to the target audience, or other audiences that may have an interest.
• You are also able to ask questions specific to the music video that we wanted to produce, information like this may not be available or tailored to our project.
• you can pict up on subtle information unable by questionnaires, like body language and gestures, giving a fuller understanding.
• It is also cheap and time effective

Disadvantages include;

• Planning and putting together the focus group can be time consuming and parties may not turn up (often considered to be boring and pressuring by participants)
• Same of the sample group may be unrelated and give false or inaccurate answers which could throw the whole project.
• Reliability of answers.

We have hence decided to use a focus group, aswell as questionnaires over other forms of research and planning. We have decided to do this as the questionnaires can be used to gather mass of information but the reliabilty of the results can be questioned as people may fill in answers to speed up to interview process.The focus group will allow us to tailor the questions to be able to find ezactly what we want, like the most popular music genre to relax to. Therefore our focus group will be consisting of 6-8 participants aged 15-19, using a specific type of sampling, chosing the participants that we know and what music genre they prefer and therefore represent a differing view. This allows for criticism, we did not want people to tell us it was a great music video and a great idea, we wanted to gain their personal opinions in order to tailor to our main target audience aswell as complementing others.By doing this we feel we are able to obtain the most honest and critical views. This will enable us to form new ideas or adapt our ideas. Although this choice of sample is not the fastest way of finding participants nor is it the fairest as it is just as hard to generalise as an opportunity sample, but it suits the information we want to gather.

Questions we used,

1. What are the typical conventions of a rap music video?
2. Are women seen as a comodity in rap music videos?
3. Do you think all rap videos objectify or subjectify women?
4. Can you think of any rap videos that go against this convention?
5. Would you then say there is a niche for that type of video?
6. What typical iconography can be seen in a rap music video?
7. Can you think of any setting related to rap music videos?
8. Do drugs play a big role in the videos, do you think this has to be so?
9. What is your favourite rap music video? and Why?
10. Any rappers that go against normal conventions of a rap music video?
