evaluation 1

I will be looking at my music video, advert and CD cover and I will be comparing it to existing music videos and adverts and I will be comparing the conventions to see if my music video that I have created meets the typical conventions. As shown the convention is to have shots of the band lip syncing, as shown in my music video there is a shot of the whole band together and this shot is shown through a Mid shot of them running towards the camera

This shot is in a typical music video because even though the shot is a running shot they have a shot where the band is altogether in the shot and they are lip sinking. this shot is like the franz ferdinade shot because they are all in the shot and they are all doing the same thing. this is a convention because the conventions are in the music video your able to see the whole band together and your able to see the singer lip syncing at the same time while also the band member can also be seen lip syncing throughout the music video to allow it to make more sense. 

As shown in this Franz Ferdinand music video there is a shot where they are all playing guitar and a shot where they are all together and this is shown as an mid shot because even though you can see the band you are able to see the location that they are placed in.

Also we as shown in this music video they have filler shots which are shots where the band are not in them and shots of random shot that fit with the music video. this means that even though they are not shown performing your able to see the band together and acting within the frame to all you to easily see  them, but this shot is a filler shot where the music and singing are still played but your only able to see them acting within the scene itself.  

As shown in our music video we have shots of the are band in the snow and breaking the snowman this shot relates to the theme of the music video because the shots of the band having fun and enjoying themselves. this shot shows enjoyment because the shot is a close up of jamie jumping at the snowman and breaking it and this shows enjoyment because youth finds enjoyment out of breaking something and then putting what they broke back together. 

ADVERT AND CD COVER  

Now moving on to the advert and the CD cover as shown in the top left hand corner of the screen you’re able to see my advert and in the top right hand corner you are able to see my CD cover.

As shown in this cover my cover and advert both meet because the conventions are that they are eye catching and stand out to the audience and are different from other CD covers and adverts. 

As shown my CD cover and Advert are different because the theme of the Advert is a chalk and as shown everything that is on the CD cover is created out of chalk and this is different from other adverts because as shown below. 

 

This CD cover shows the bad members on the front and on the next video this shows the album cover as the advert cover,

Even though our advert cover is similar to the CD cover you the only difference is that there are images of the band members on them and on each layer of the cover your able to see the band members.

But the advert and the cover have the same theme because they both have the chalk and chalkboard theme. As shown on the advert your able to see that all the writing on the background done in chalk and in the chalk theme and the colours of the triangles match with the colours of the chalk on the back ground.
