Final Video & Rejected Footage.

This is our final video Mumford and Sons - Awake my soul.

Our rejected footage has been attached to the end of our video , these are the shot and peices of video that we shot during our days with the camera , but decided not to use due to the poor quality of the shots , also some of the shots are not as we expected to look , as for example the shot of the actor sat on the wooden fence , we thought that this shot we could see the guitar and that this would add to the rustic and indie feel of the band as it looks like a tradional shot that the band would use. But we found that when we saw it in final cut Pro that infact you could not see the guitar and the shot was a bit to light and infact it was not as good as we first thought and indended , there are also a few more shot that we had decided not to use for many differnet reasons such as the shot may have been to light or may not have been the correct shot. these are some of the shots that we decided were not good enough to make it into our Video.

Creative Camera Use


In our Video we have used creative camera use , we have a few shots that are of particular intrest, As we have one that is a shot of the clouds through trees , we had this shot for about 5 minutes , we then sped this up so it makes it look as if the time is moving really fast , we also made sure it was at the time at which the sun went down so the shot got darker, we did this by using the FInal cut pro software on the apple computers, we used this to create all the effects that we created on our videos. this adds to the spooky and indie theme of our video, We also have alot of shot that have been slowed down , this is good as it makes the video look alot slower and more relaxed which again is some of the themes that we wanted to portray throughout our video. We also used Mulveys male gaze technique on some of the shots of the Girl in our video as we scanned from her feet upto her head , this makes the reader see in the eyes of the actors in the video.


Advert Flat plans

These are the flat plans that i created for my media Advert , I Chose this style of advert as i thought that it would go well with my Digipack and video that i have created , I think that the consistant theme of the folk and rural settings would be for the band , and are the same as previouse media peices created by this band. when i created these flat plans i took into account the colour and the way the photo is compared to tohers and I solved this problem by thinking that i would use the same colour that i used in my digipack so it will make again the themes coming through the whole peice of media.
