Weaknesses and Threats

Our main weakness consisted of laziness

We had numerous threats, our biggest was the weather conditions

Time management was key At some points our camera battery died on set Our main threats was also based around things in

our risk assessment

Opportunities We have a variety of amazing sceneries around

our area Due to our AS coursework we can now use

mediums we have already use and add more of a variety

We have decided to explore a different genre of music to gain new ideas

Our creative sides will make us gain a perfect music video

Brotherhood

• Establishes character

• Notice props used – gun/cushion

• Editing of titles

• Shows his journey

• Shows his isolation and loneliness

• Amazing scenery

Strategies for A2 Refine editing skills e.g. cutting, colour grading

and syncing Reassess ideas regularly (weekly meetings) Evaluate peers work to help improve our own Continue to meet self-set deadlines e.g. film a

certain scene by a given date

Genre for A2 Music video

We are stuck between two songs, both of different (however similar), genres.

The first is Indie Pop (we’re keeping the song secret), with a slow and calming tone. The lyrics are of a love story, enabling us to produce a emotional video.

The next is Soft Rock/Piano Rock (we’re also keeping this song a secret too).

Inspiration

Samuel’s inspiration: Jack’s inspiration:

• My song consists of hard hitting lyrics

• It fits in with the genre of Piano Rock/Soft Rock

• It has a very creative video already

• We could use political issues to entwine in the video

• I picture a retro style video when I listen to the song

• Also hard hitting • New album of slow

songs• Perfect for editing • The song creates

lots of choice for a video
