AS Music Video/Digipak

At the end of my AS year, I did a music video for Get Down With The Trumpets by Rizzle Kicks (video cannot be found). I found it quite hard as it was my first time trying to make a music video, and I had to learn new things like lip-syncing and basetrack editing. Also, I don't think I learned enough, or learned things in enough detail to be able to apply proper knowledge to my work. Last year, I used 2 basetracks in my work, and during editing, used markers on the video and the song to be able to match them up correctly.

I don't think that the video came out very well, due to a lack of footage and not very much knowledge around how to create a music video. This year however, I feel I have enough knowledge and have gained enough skills to be able to create a good music video.


The digipak was very basic, and didn't look at all professional. It also didn't connect with the music video; there was no synergy involved. But again, I didn't have the skills or knowledge to be able to create something brilliant. This year, I know I can definitely make something much better; a synergous, professional looking, aesthetically pleasing digipak that will go along with my music video.

    some good blogging so far! The blog about appeal of music video uses super gifs and sums up the whole idea perfectly. Don't neglect your progress and skills blogs - they are really important. And one of your targets should be to think about using a wider variety of technology.
    catch up quick!
    see you next week
