Magazine advert analysis


Whilst looking at some advertisement posters for our music video, we have come across this Britney Spears poster which caught the attention of our group. We absolutely loved it and will be taking inspiration from it. Personally, I like the different font styles, it adds a POP feel to the magazine which is what will influence our group when designing our own magazine. Furthermore, the way that Britney is posed also adds to the POP effect, she looks very innocent and girly, which is the ambience that we would like to give off to our audience.

Storyboard draft

Above is a draft storyboard for our music video. It includes the concept of our music video and the various locations which we will be filming in.

1st Photoshoot

My team and I planned to do a photo-shoot for our digipack on monday, however it did not go as planned. Romano who no longer attends the academy was unable to enter the school building during school hours. We thought that as he was a student from last year's sixth form, he would have been allowed on school premisses. This issue was resolved by going outside and filming Romano's dancing skills and also take several  photographs of him for our character profile. Unfortunately I was not allowed out the academy that day due to study support, as a result, Shaista and Ilianna had to do this task on their own. In conclusion, we are now aware that a backup plan is always necessary as things may not always go as planned. If in future we need Romano in school, we will get permission ahead to make sure that we have the go ahead.

Potential font and name ideas

Above is a potential name that my team and I have chosen to name the artist for our music video. We have picked this name because it sounds like the name of a pop artist, however, it is not considered as mediocre because its not similar to any other pop artist that is already existing. Due to our target market being teenage girls, I have chosen girly fonts.

Possible locations for music video






The photos above are all locations of where filming will be done indoors. The first photo is our school canteen, we chose this location as we wanted to do a dance scene there, using the chairs and table. The school hall will be used for a performance and the last photo, is an underground hallway where fillers will be filmed.






Updated concept for our music video



This is the updated version of our music concept, we have made a few changes.
