Playing around with composition

Media tests exploring different compositions for the main video for the abstract middle.

Changing the footage of the video around

After having a talk with david about my first full video. Even though he said it still needed a lot more work on, one part he did really like was on the side videos and not the main, he sugested that I moved it to the main video, and i am glad i took his advice. It looks so much better on the main video as it follows the direction of the music better

Meeting with Daivd

Oh deer, today didnt go too well. Daivd really didnt like the middle part of my video. and to be fair, I dont really like it either, so it was good that someone gave me the kick up the butt to change it. I need to go more abstract in the middle as like david said "the middle bit of the song is very boring" So i need to make crazy visuals to liven it up!

Business Cards

Well, I've been doing a lot of thinking about the exposition recently, and I noticed everyone else business card designs and saw them putting their work on them. Dont get me wrong they look amazing but it got me thinking, how can I make a good first impression and make me stand out! I cant exactly put a video on paper!! So I started thinking along the lines of holographic and lenticular...after doing a few days of research, I started to notice something missing...THE PRICE! I could not for the life of me find a price for say 100 lenticular business cards, all websites said to give them a call. So I started doing the rounds and calling, after a few unsuccessful calls, I phone this company called 3d images and I spoke to the owner, David. at first I asked how much would 100 lenticular business cards would cost...to which he replied, 2-3 pounds EACH, so that would be around 300 quid...so I told him about me and that im a student trying to stand out and lo behold, he said that he always tries to help students out and that he would do me 10 for £25. Now I know 10 isnt a lot so my plan is to only give these ones out to potential employers who actually seem interested. I will print simple business cards too. He told me to send him two images. Here are the original ones that I sent him.


He then emailed me back saying the second image, the parts were too small for lenticular printing so below are the final copy.

Second TV testing

Well today was a lot more successful than last week. We didnt use the laptop as Raz had an idea of using a DVD splitter that can send the DVD signal out to two of the TVs that are going to be the same. We didnt get the timing exactly right but it was less than a second out. What we are going to try next is using the same DVD players because the load/play times were slightly different because of the different makes/ages of the DVD players.

1st Complete edit

Ok so here it is, the first complete edit. I so glad to have it full all the way through, but it is nowhere near finished yet. I am really not too keen on the middle section but I will wait and see what David has to say and get him opinion on it.
