Time Management (5 Weeks Until Deadline)

As part of our A2 media studies coursework we were required to complete several posts relating to research, planning and inspiration to create the initial ideas for our music video, CD Digipak and Magazine advertisement. After we had looked carefully at the inspirational texts we had chosen we then created the flat plans for our products and the subsequent first drafts. In order to improve our products as much as possible we sought feedback from our peers and lecturers regarding our print tasks and made changes through several drafts. At this point in the course, we have successfully completed all aspects of our printed tasks. Therefore we have now begun the proccess of producing our music video.

With 5 weeks to go until the deadline we have completed the following tasks:

• The initial plot idea for our music video.
• The conventions we will try to include from our chosen genre of music.
• Costume/Make-up/Character ideas.
• Chosen Soundtrack.
• Rough draft of our storyboard and shot types.

The above tasks have provided us with sufficient planning to create our full storyboard and shot types to create our music video - which will be produced in the next five weeks. However, to ensure this is completed we must complete the following tasks:

• Decide on the final location/s for our music video.
• Complete the appropriate recce to ensure that all health and saftey issues are properly assessed to make sure everyone is safe.
• Choose and collect the props that we would include in our video.
• The shooting and filming of the music video.
• The editing of the music video and adding of the soundtrack.
