music video brief

Music Video Brief
Jazz Morley – Disconnected

Disconnected is a quite depressing and boring song so it would be very difficult to make an upbeat music video for it, because of this, in my music video I plan for Jazz Morley to be sat in an empty room with her legs tucked underneath her. She will be looking away from the camera and singing the song.

The video will start with a long shot and gradually start to pan and track around the girl. It will then go into a close up of her face crying, and then an extreme close up of her eye and a tear falling. The video will be in black and white but her eyes will be bright blue, as will the tears. The camera will then pan round to a window. The scenery in the window will be in colour. You then see the girl walking through the field.

Presentation Evaluation



Presentation Evaluation


My self and Max Dougan presented our presentation of Ananlysing Sound For Film 'Dead Man's Chest' to the rest of our class. The presentation went fairly ok but it would of helped if we had a script and rehearsed what we were going to say. In the presentation we should of referred back to the glossary and added definitions and examples to the key terms. It would of helped if the rest of the group was here when we made the presentation because even though we started the first slide as a group I did the rest of it. The presentation suffered because of this because it lacked some things that i didn't think to put in. If I were to do this presentation again I would make sure that everyone participated in the making and presenting.
