New Digipak Design


The drawings aren't that good but this is the rough idea I want for my Digipak as I feel it's conventional to the genre but i also feel as though it fits in well with my ambiguous design style.
The housing style will be consistent with the albums hit song "3 a.m." as it'll be the same location.

Animatics For My New Music Video


This is the very quickly put together and rough version of my animatic, I plan to improve this later on, however due to a tight schedule, the video was my priority and not this. Nether the less it shows and accurate idea of what i want to create.

UPDATE ON GROUP'S STATUS

There was a group decision that it'd be best if the group split up due to conflicts of interest, bad communications and just overall incompetent teamwork as whole from everyone. So the group has now split into three, Tyrell and Jasmine are both doing their own music video and Jasmine is carrying on with this current artist.

Because of this, obviously this resulted in myself having to come up with an artist and genre and music idea again, so I chose to pick the rap genre and focus entirely on all Micro-elements in my project ( mise-en-scene, cinematography, editing and sound ). Despite the abrupt group split I thought this was a good choice as its now allowed each individual to reach their full creative potential, including myself.

Digipak Design

This is my final product for the Digipak design I have created for Jazmin's new album. This Digipak contains: the album cover, album track listing, lyrics book, photo gallery and signed posters as well as the CD of the album and a bonus DVD content which shows the album making process and a special interview with Jazmine herself as she lets her fans know how she does it! After receiving feedback from the previous Digipak I designed, I took it upon myself to act on the feedback which was a change of font from calligraphy to simpler font styles and just clean up any rough edges.

The left panel concludes of Jazmine's actual music CD and the panel to the right is the signed photos and posters.

↖ The panel to the bottom left is the lyrics book as evidently presented and the panel to the bottom right is the front cover.↗
Also, the top middle panel is the bonus DVD and the bottom middle panel is the track-listing,
This is the correct format for the Digipak to be set out.

Advert for our album

To traditionally promote the album for Jazmine, I created an album cover magazine advert which show important information about instant social media links so fans can hear all the latest news about future songs, albums, or even just gossip Jasmine has to share, as well as key information to the general public about where to find the latest album to download. My magazine advert features: the same album cover as the digipak so that the public can recognise the album straight away, the name of the artist and the album. A bar-code is included so the audience can scan on their mobiles and instantly the song will begin to play and this is especially appealing to the ever evolving streaming world and to our audience due to its convenience.

Our First Music Video Draft


This is the first draft of the 'Love In The Dark' music video. Although the first draft is missing the narrative and still needs more scenes, there will be a survey which will ask our classmates what needs improvements and how well the video is going so far.

Shoot Number Two

For our second music video shoot, yet again myself, Tyrell and Jazmine stayed behind after school to use the same drama room containing stage lights to film so we had consistent backgrounds and continuity. On this day, we captured Jazmine miming/lip-syncing to Adele's, Love In The Dark in various different lighting and situations. We managed to get a variety of close up shots, mid shots, tracking side to side with a combination of dim lighting to exude only Jazmine's face and dim-red lighting to exude Jazmine's physique and hair. I personally felt this use of lighting portrayed to audience that our star was in a dark place at the time of the break-up and was a nice visual Que that she felt as if she was in hell.
