Promotional Video For Band




We filmed this footage over summer during time we spent at the studio with the band, we thought we would put this footage together into a small promotional video using one of their other tracks titled "Banshee"

After effects on green screen








As the original footage in Final cut didn't look realistic, we imported the footage into After Effects and applied a key light 1.2 effect. We then edited the settings to key out the green from the green screen and made the footage blend with the bathroom background. We applied the levels to grade the lights so that the green screen matched the background clip. After, we applied a curl effect, adjusted and added red to give him a realistic skin tone. We slightly adjusted the green and blues to make the colouring as good as possible.

FINAL DIGIPACK



My digipack is heavily influenced by Arcade Fire - Funeral. The colour scheme is quite warm and matches the website to an extent. The front colour clearly states the band name, originally I used the bands black and white logo but decided the brown matches the scheme a lot more, although the spine sticks to the original colouring. I made sure all 4 pages have a reoccurring theme, using the animals and sketched flowers. The song names on the back page are all shadowed as it looks more artistic and stylised. The inside page has a section of the song 'your majesty', to relate back to the band and the music video we made. The website and digipack are connected, creating brand identity. The colours suggest this, as well as the wildlife sketches. The background of the CD cover is the same as the bathroom flooring, as we felt an off white was better for the band's image. Overall, i think the digipack is successful in expressing the identity of the band.

Rough Cut




This is our rough cut for out music video. We have colour graded all footage in the video and cut it to the beat so that all footage present now can be used in the final video. The mid-section of the video is blank as we have not yet filmed the footage we will be using however this will be edited and added as soon as we have filmed it.
