This week we came back and were put into our groups for production. I was put into a group of 4 and was given the role of producer. As this is my least favourite role i intended to mix both the producer role with the unauthorised role of pr. I later found that this was too much work to take on as they are both pre-production heavy roles and it would result in us being behind schedule. As i was unable to do this, Josh, the editor decided that he would create our group logo as he is very skilled with graphic design, and also has little paperwork responsibilities in pre-production. On the tuesday that we were put into groups we had to do very little paperwork (only meeting minutes/agenda)as we watched the level 2 media student showcase their music video opening sequences and were asked to give some positive and negative feedback. This was helpful as we were able to see peoples mistakes and find simple resolutions which helped when creating contingency plans.

This week we had to pitch our idea of our music video to the class. In order to do this we had to complete the mind-map padlet page.
The tuesday was used to prepare our pitches by knowing what we are going to say, practice speaking publicly and adding visuals to the page to make it more expressive.
On Wednesday we pitched our ideas to the class and filled out feedback sheets whilst listening to others ideas. This conveyed our level of professionalism as we critically analysed the pitches, making notes of who we wanted to work with, which song/music video idea we wanted to use and finally what role we wanted to take on.
I believe my pitch went relatively well but it was clear that my nerves had gotten to me as i skipped a few valuable points and was thrown off once or twice by the audio of my chosen song that i played in the background. Looking back i definately should have made use of the short script prompts i had created earlier that day. I believe that my idea wasnt chosen as my lack of detail in the pitch told my fellow classmates that i did not have a completed idea.
For my Final Major Project i will ensure i stick to a script so i can mention every detail of my idea, this will mean i can take on a role of a director. If i do not want to do my own idea i would like to be an editor as this is what i find easiest and theraputic.

One of the tasks for this week was to complete the music video research write-up. As i had only written about 700 words i revisited it to add more details about the culture, history, and fashion in each era to make it more interesting and useful. Even by doing this i was still 300 words off the 1500 word minimum, so i went on to find extra music videos from decades i feel I'm most interested in - music wise. Overall i believe i would have succeeded much better if i had done the research document first and then proceed on to writing it up as i found that i wasted a lot of my time trying to start sentences differently and wasn't sure of a structure. Next time i do an extended writing task i will make use of research templates as this clearly displays information that i need for specific areas, making the point much clearer.

On-top of this we had another research to start- audience research profile. This was a document that needs to compile audience research in different forms such as an online survey, vox pops etc. This meant that i had to design 10 open and close - ended questions in order to get a variation of answers in detail and some just straight to the point. I asked questions about peoples preference in music videos;such as "Are you more likely to watch a music video if you are a fan of/ like the artist?" As we have to conduct research, compile the answers and compare i was unable to complete this document this week, but will ensure that i get at least 10 responses from people of different ages to ensure there is little to no bias in my results. I aim to complete this by next week.

On the wednesday we were also informed that we would be pitching out ideas for our music videos next week. This meant that creating our pad let mind map became priority over the research documents , which will now need to be completed as homework or in any spare time we have in the day. It was our job to find some music video influences, shot types we found interesting and comment on props and costumes we will need.

Unfortunately i was ill this whole week but was sent the homework which i completed the following week.
The first task i had to complete was research different music and music videos throughout the years. This information had to be from the 1950s to the 1990s. As i wasn't able to work the whole of this week, i decided to skip the notes document and go straight into writing the full research document.
The next piece of work i had to catch up on was a detailed description of different music video techniques. These include cutting to the beat,Miming and lip sync and Chroma key. The task was to find an example, write up a definition of each technique and explain how they are used and why they are effective.
The last piece of work was the detailed description of different music video styles. Much like the music video techniques task, i had to find examples, write a definition and explain why they are used. The various music video styles include; In concert and live footage,Narrative and Impressionist etc.
This research will become helpful when i am deciding what i want to do for my music video. I will be able to easily decide what the song should include according to the lyrics and date it is released (The research of music through the years will explain trends of each decade etc.)

Today our targets as a class was to analyse the purpose of music videos and justify reasoning. The first task of the day was to answer a set of 4 questions and give feedback using facts/statistics. My statistics justified my point that music videos are only relevant online as the website quoted "The MTV video music awards saw another year of diminished audience returns....the telecast brought in 6.5million viewers- down by more than 4 million since 2015. .Facebook streaming was up 938% ".
Next we had to gain audience research, so we were shown examples of Vox-pops and then set off to ask our own in harlow town. As it is a very cold and quiet day we were only able to get one participant and even then she did not want to be filmed - only voice recorded.
Finally we all set of individually to create a survey on the website survey monkey, consisting of 10 questions about music videos and what people look for in them.

They are used in the music industry to promote products/clothing and give an image to the person singing. They are now more like short films

Nowadays they are not too relevant as we don't see things like music videos on to but online they become viral videos and break records for most views. They are aimed at youth opposed to elder generations no matter who is singing.

Yes.

Personal target - keep on top of my time management to ensure I complete all of the work.
