CD cover.

Daisy uploaded the pictures that she took of Niall earlier while i was editing, we wanted to take pictures similar to the ones i'd taken of Joel before cos we had really liked them and then we needed a full length picture looking up that we would use of the back cover.

This is that picture -

He is looking up because i think he will be looking up at the clock in the top corner.

We chose this clock picture:
Because it was the whole clock, then we were able to cut it to the size and shape we wanted to go in the corner or at the side.

And cut it like this to fit in the corner:

This is what our first finished backcover now looks like:

Although it links to the video etc I'm not sure that I really like it, it looks a bit random and for audiences just buying the CD who have heard the track and not seen the video it wouldn't make sense. We also couldn't get the fuzzy edge away from around the clock so it doesn't look perfect.





However we have just tried it with no clock.. and it looks really plain but this is what it is for now.

We have kept the colour theme right the way through and set it out like the front cover as this was what our class feedback advised us to do. We have our company logo "DS09" (Daisy Sadie 09) on it and his name and the track.

27/1/10 - Editing

Today me and Sadie have been in the mac room all day. We had media for our first two lessons anyway and we also used break, lunch and period 3 to work on our editing.
I also took some still images of Niall to use for our album cover and poster to replace the ones we had already taken of Joel.

Here are the shots:

I took a mixture of colour and black & white photos to see which ones we prefer. I made sure that I took a long shot photo of Niall to use for our back cover on the album because we want to use a small iamge of Niall in the bottom right hand corner and a large image of a clock in the top left hand corner as if Niall is looking up at the time.

We are going back into the mac room after school to finish it and will start on the filming for our evaluation if we have time.

After all our editing is finished I will put the lyrics up on this blog with the changes we have made to the scenes since re-filming with niall as it has drastically changed.

Also this lesson we are uploading photos for our blogs to show our work on editing.

Photo's

At home I took some photo's of the clock that we used in our video so we could pick one to use on the back cover of our CD.

I have taken pictures that aren't the full clock because we want it in the top ledt hand corner really big and a full length shot of Niall smaller in the other corner looking up towards it. People who see the video and the CD will see the connection between the two and should recognise the clock.

I'll save these to the computer at school tomorrow and addd one to the back cover.
