The Piratones Digipak

This is my digipak for The Piratones. It features a photo of them on the front cover and there logo on the side. The logo is placed in a particular way so when folded along certain lines (which are shown) it becomes a pirate hat with the logo on front.

Digipak advert

• Half advert and half picture of digipak.
• Drawn to band name first as its the biggest writing. 
• Font promoting the album/release date is bold so again draws the audience's attention.

Key Framing

Director Tony Petrossian

• Directed music videos by Rise Against (Prayer of the refugee), Bullet For My Valentine (Tears dont fall), Slipknot (Vermillion pt1), Three Days Grace (Never too late)
• Mostly specializes in mainstream metal/rock 
• Like hie work because he creates an accurate portrayal of the band themselves as well as telling the story of the song. 

Linkin Park - "In The End"

The video for "In The End" by Linkin Park is 3 minutes 38 seconds long and directed by Nathan "Karma" Cox and the band's DJ Joe Hahn. Linkin park are classed as Nu metal. 

• (close-ups of artist) The video consists of the band, close-ups of the lead singer and rapper throughout. Similar to many other videos. 
• (intertextual references) The 'flying whale' is also makes another appearance in a different Linkin Park video.
• Special effects extrvaganza (joe gow's genre of music vid performance) 

A Day To Remember - "All Signs Point To Lauderdale"

The video for "All Signs Point To Lauderdale" by A Day To Remember is 3 minutes 17 seconds long and directed by Chris Marrs Pillero. The genre of music played by A Day To Remember is pop punk/hardcore. The video is more story-based.

• (relationship between lyrics and visuals) "i cant live my life always backing down" as he turns around and stands up for himself.
• (close-ups of artist) The band are main part of story so feature throughout, especially lead singer. 
• the majority of their videos have the band/lead singer in thoughout.

Radiohead - "No Surprises"

This is the video for Radiohead's "No Surprises". Its 3 minutes 47 seconds long and was directed by Grant Gee. 

• (relationship between lyrics & visual) "silent, silent" stops singin in vid. 
• lyrics backwards, roll like credits throughout song
• (relationship between music and visual) lights blink in time to the music
• (close-ups of the artist) whole video consists of a close-up of lead singers face

A2 Induction project

This is my induction project. My part was mostly filming and editing the video. During shooting of the video i learnt to be more prepared sorting out mise-en-scene and during editing i learnt how to add a photoshop image in. We achieved the thought bubble at the end by creating it in photoshop then importing it into premiere. 

Streetlight Manifesto - "Would You Be Impressed?"

This is the video for "Would you be impressed?" by Streetlight Manifesto. I like it because instead of having the actual real band members they've been replaced with different animals, portraying the band as fun. Also they've become symbols associated with the band. 

Jamiroquai - "Virtual Insanity"

I like this video for "virtual insanity" by Jamiroqaui because of the style of it. The video makes it seem like the floor is moving when actually its the walls being moved which is really confusing. 

Rise Against - "Ready To Fall"

I like this music video because it portrays what the band, Rise Against, are about. They support the charity Peta and similar groups and also really care about the world. The mise-en-scene in this music video shows that. 

Slipknot - "Vermillion"

 

The reason Iike the video to "vermillion pt 1" by Slipknot is because of the style of it and the camera work/editing. The style of this video lets the audience know the genre of music its going to be as its dark and strange. However, the camera work/editing is the part I love most because it's filmed using a time lapse and the girl is moving very slow so the audience therefore concentrate on the girl, not the surroundings as they blur by making it look awesome.
