Exporting

After I finished editing the video on Final Cut Express I opened up file and selected using quicktime conversion which puts the video onto a quicktime file, after I exported it I knew that YouTube was compatible with Quicktime so I uploaded it on the 12lcm YouTube page and titled "Taylor's Ident"The reason i chose to put it on YouTube is because it is a well known website and it will probably get more views on there.

New costume change



The reason I have changed the costume is because the availability of the original costume has become impossible so I have changed to something more simple and better appealing to our target audience which are fun loving party people.

Location for Train Journey


This location is perfect because it is close to me, there are no barriers and we can easily film on the train because it is a quiet station.

Uploading and editing

Decisions: I have uploaded the establishing shots of sutton common train station and edited them in with some music i made, with a old black & white effect. This will be perfect to establish the set before we are introduce the story and characters.

Revisions: I have not used any of these previous shots in the finished project because i couldn't fit them in with the other shots because the new shots needed to all be put in as they were crucial to the narrative and the advert had to be a maximum of 30 seconds.

Decisions: I have been editing together the shots from Craig and George's performance on the train and have edited together without the establishing shots but I do have a shot that establishes the setting at the beginning when Craig gets on the train


Filming Sessions

Decisions: I decided to only film on the train itself even though I had planned to have a few more shots of Craig on the platform but I wouldn't have enough time to fit it all in 30 seconds which is how long the ident has to be and the train scene is more important.

Revisions: I realized that I had to establish the set so I decided to have a quick shot of Craig when the train arrives.

Results: Because I had so many shots to include I had to make the editing fast past which really worked  out well to the music.

Problems

I have had quite a big problem with my group as the other person in my group has left the course so I am now working independently by myself

Our Target Audience


This is a picture of our target audience who look like party goers
We are targeting to Male and Females between 19-30 and we decided that most of these people around these age probably have a job so when they get home they will probably want to get out of the work mind set so they will want to do something kooky and silly so that is why we show strange but funny things for the to un-whined so our ident will also respond to this as there is a guy in suit (coming back from work) seeing someone who is strange and then he joins in being strange by playing music from his briefcase.

Live type Title

We used a program called livetype were i designed our title for the Grid, the colours I used were pink and black because I like those combination of colours and they appeal to a wide variety of people, as girls like pink and boys like black. The font I used for it is called Rip tape and i got it from www,Dafont.com we had done some research before were we recreated a simialr effect with masking tape to see how it looked and we both agreed it was good, the reason I chose this is because the effect gives a kinda of urban culture feel. The effect I used to make an entrance with the words is called Text Static in this they glide in and also jump out towards the front give it an uneasy feel. Then the next effect is called random snap were it all goes into place an a random order on top of this effect is a red flash to give some more urban culture because it seems like a police siren and then to finish it off we give a simple fade away. all this with a a black background.

Casting decision for ident 1, ident 2 and ident 3



(left) Craig Hawker
(right) George Haywood





The reason I have chosen these two is because George looks and acts like a party animal which fits his character well because the character has just come back from a party, Craig is good for the part because he wears glasses which will make him seem smart which will work well with his character who is a business man who is on his way home from work.
I have also chosen these people because they both do the course and easy to get to for filming which makes them more accessible at the right times.

Ident Report (Annotated)

Ident Research

Ident Pic Research 3 Ident Pic Research 4 Ident Pic Research 5
George and I decided that our best idea for an ident is the one where there is a man in a suit sitting on a train. A man in a camel suit comes in and sits next to him, after a while the guy in the suit opens his suitcase, pulls some head phones out and starts playing drum and bass music loudly from his suitcase. This is the best one of our ideas as it fits our target of men/ women who work all day and joke around and have fun whenever there not in work. I think the strange parts we will use (including black and white shots with colour on one side) will make the piece interesting, original and exciting.

ident music possible for ident 1, ident 2 and ident 3




This is the possible music for when the guy in suit plays music from his briefcase because we decided that we would use drum n bass music because it is party music and our chosen audience are the people who like to party but perhaps needs to be faster to recreate the party/rave atmosphere. the beginning of the song is classical i put this in to be like the guy in the suit but when the drum and bass goes in it supposed to show the fussion between classic and drum and bass

Music for ident

I used garage band to find our song for the bit where the guy in the suit starts to play music from his breifcase.
Me and George had decided we wanted a fast track.
But there was no fast drum beats so this is what I did instead
