NEA Planning Part 5 - Casting

Casting

In this post i am going to be casting the main actors and models for my brief on Music Videos and online. The brief states that the artist signed to Warner Music Group must include the narrative of a protest music video. Therefore, it is important that I include a diverse cast that represents at least two different social groups to relate to a wide socially-conscious, 16–25, middle to upmarket demographic.

Extras are also going to be used within my Music video. There will be a mixture of different ethnicities such as White/British, Black Caribbean and African to represent the diversity in British society and make audiences aware of the many cultures and ethnic minority groups that are present. This further reflects the movement of my protest topic of 'Black Lives Matter' by showcasing a true representation of what British society looks like.

ONLINE CROSS MEDIA PRODUCT - WEBSITE

Website Link - https://connieschofield24.wixsite.com/wonder Intended evidence: Video element: Below you will find examples of what I wanted to include in the video element of the website: Intertextuality : part of my intention with the home page was to include an element of intertextuality that linked to the messages of the Black Lives Matter movement for both production and online. For example, the inclusion of the BLM fist on the website promotes the support to the movement. Furthermore, the convergence of the linked page makes it easier to sign petitions and learn of the movement without having to go and research pages yourself, therefore this makes it more easily accessible for all audiences ages. However, I would have liked to have made a template of my own alike the band logo/album, but couldn't get access to the technology or help I needed to help me achieve this. Convergence : As well as the inclusion of a linked website to...

NEA Planning Part 6 - Schedule

NEA Planning Part 6 - Schedule TASK 1 - Create a calendar that highlights your chosen production/photography/filming dates and activities. TASK 2 - Why do you think it's important to produce a schedule of activities when working on a production? Name 3 activities you're likely to struggle with? What are you going to do in order to achieve these difficult activities? One reason why I think it's important to produce a schedule of activities when working on a production is to make sure that you stay on time. For example, it will enable me to make sure that my coursework is handed in on time and up to the standard I would like it to be at. Another important factor of a schedule is to help plan convenient times for cast members and myself so it can be done as efficiently as possible. One activity I am likely to struggle with is incorporating titles and graphics to my music video. This is because I hope to u...

NEA Planning part 4 - Location Information

In this task I will be exploring what locations I will be using for my chosen brief of music video and online. The purpose of this is to justify the use of settings and what makes them significant. First Location: Hadleigh Castle: Address - Castle Lane, Hadleigh, Essex, SS7 2AP One reason why i chose the location of Hadleigh castle to shoot my the dance segment of my video is because I wanted to represent the contrast of outdated views against postmodern ones. For example, the castle was established around the 1200s where White English kings such as King John and Edward III ruled in parts of England. It represents a time of white supremacy, where integration of ethnicity and race was not at all common. The corrosion of the castle further represents that this idea has collapsed in our current post-modern era, therefore reflecting the black lives matter movement and a growth of a united society in terms of multi-cultural and demographic backgrounds. Hazards: As I am shoo...
