4.3: working as a team

The music video is a group production so it will need to be created as a group. It is important that we work well together and listen and cooperate well in order for this to be successful.

4.3: preparing equipment.

The equipment that I will need for this music video will be a camera and a tripod.
Before I begin to film my music video I will need to book them both so that I can access them. The camera is on high demand so it is essential that i do this.
Once I have gathered all of my resources and equipment, I will need to look after them and use them to my advantage so that I can get the best work out of the time with the camera.

4.3: Working with Trevor Jarvis

4.3 primary research Animator - Trevor Jarvis

15/11/10

Animator - Trevor Jarvis

  • The software that we will be using is Flash. This goes under Visual arts and performing arts.
  • He then gave us an intro about the software and how it is mainly used for animation

Time frames and key frames - these are different layers were you input your animation cartoon and add in transitions in between so when you play through the whole thing it looks like it’s moving.


He also introduced us to an artist called Edvard Muybridge he specialized in making photos that people put together to make an animation.

4.3: Health and Safety.

My fellow production team, camera man and cast have the right to work in a safe, neutral enviroment, therefore it is essential that we have a health and safety list to have knowledge of all safety hazards and avoid them.

Set/Locations:
- Purdy Street
- A Bedroom
- Graveyard
- Victoria Park

Before we shoot the music video we will need to check the weather forecast for that day previously to avoid any hazards or problem with the camera. Our first location for the music video is Purdy street. On a road there is many safety hazards. To get different angles of the street for the establishing jump shots. The camera person has to travel to different parts of street for example, at the top of the street, we will have to make sure that there are no vehicles travelling down the road at this point, this should be easy as the shot wont take more than a minute. Soon after this we will need to shoot the ensemble and main character walking down the street mourning. We chose this location because it is a quiet, local road with not many cars travelling down it often. We will make sure all cast are close together and seen so accidents do not occur.

In our second location (a bedroom) There will not be many safety hazards, we will just need to make sure the camera tripod is placed in a spacious relevant place.

In our third location (the graveyard) we will need to make sure all of the cast are placed in a correct position around the grave, to avoid accidents and injuries. The camera tripod will also be placed in a clear relevant space.

In our last location (Victoria park) we will make sure that the hole that she is digging up is previously created to avoid wasting time and injuries.
