Drafting/planning - work in progress


This is a screenshot of the programme I'm using and the first steps of creating my video. 

Drafting and Planning - Serif Movie Plus XS

I have filmed short clips for my music video and need to edit them and put them all together to fit the song and style.
To edit my music video I am using a programme called MoviePlus which allows me to crop, trim, slow down and speed up clips as well as adding effects such as filters. I can also fade in and out so my video is smooth and looks professional.

Drafting and Planning - Mood board

Just before I film and put together my music video, digipak and magazine advertisement, I thought it would help me to do a quick mood board of lots of things I want included and give me my final ideas and plans. I think this is effective as it inspires me to create my video in the way I want it and makes me feel more at ease knowing what I need to get done.

Organisation of props - props I have collected






Over the months I have asked family and friends if I can keep their empty alcohol cans and bottles to use as the props for the music video. There are party scenes where there will be a lot of alcohol needed in the background and to make it look realistic.

Drafting and planning - mock album cover


This is a draft of one of my ideas for a CD cover. I had the idea of using the smoke as the background as smoke will be featured in the video. I also kept the colours dull to portray the mood of the story behind the video. I have used a young, pretty model which is what people would expect to see in a trap music video. I like the font I have used as it is clear and looks different to what is usually seen. 
I may re-do the same type of cover in a more colourful style, including red as there will be a red wash over some scenes in the video so this will keep continuity.

Drafting and planning - fonts

These are the fonts I am currently looking at to use for my album cover. I have used the single name 'stay high' to test out the fonts and see what they will look like.
