The first picture of the wall I took on my phone when looking at location ideas and this picture stands out to me as our song is called 'Different Colours' and this is a colourful wall, so I decided that I want to use it in my digipack. However the picture wasn't straight so using powerpoint I straightened it out and cropped it to a square size. I want my track list to be in bold, black writing and when i placed it on top the black thing on the wall and the white box were distracting from the text. To get rid of them, i screenshotted part of the wall and placed it on top, then faded out the edges so it looked natural, and you can not see them in my final picture.I am currently in my second year of Media Studies and I also study Maths and Psychology.

Inside covers
I really liked this photo of the bench which comes from our music video and initially wanted it for my front cover, however when I cropped it to the size of a square it cut out most of the picture and didn't look good. So instead I had the idea to cut the picture in half and make it two squares for the inside covers. This way I get the whole picture and now the two pictures side by side will look good in the digipack showing continuity throughout.
Analysis 2
Here is two more adverts I have studied that have inspired me to make certain decisions when making my own advert, such as the possibility of having a website just like the one on the Jessie J advert; www.jessiejofficial.com

Things we changed
After finishing filming our music video there are quite a few things that we have changed since our last pitch.
Firstly we took out the regurgitation part as we liked the idea of the trowel being duct taped to the jacket better. Also because of this we can't have the shot of him regurgitating various items in the background as the girls run out of frame.
Another idea we have cut out is teddy bears in the forest having a picnic as a random idea purely because we forgot about it, which indicates how unimportant it was to the story line. Personally I didn't like that idea much anyway so I'm glad we don't have it.
The last idea we cut out was the girls putting breadcrumbs on the floor as they enter the forest as a "Hansel and Gretel" type thing, and the boy would eat them off the floor as he follows them.

Analysis 1
I have analysed the 'Adele 21' advert and 'Rihanna' advert by looking at their codes and conventions. This will help me when making my own advert.

Saturation
After we refilmed the shots in the morning, we uploaded them to the computer to edit. However, the corridor scene was quite dark in term of lighting so we brought the exposure down to 99%, the contrast to 10% and the saturation up to 134%.
Then for the scene in the cupboard it looked slightly yellow so we had to bring the contrast down.
After watching the whole video so far i pointed out that the shot of the receipt was quite grey compare to the rest of the shots.

Filming 12/01/18
We all came into school at 7:30am to refill our shots of Morgan in the school because the ones we previously filmed were blurry. We also filmed the scene of me on the phone.
