Update 13th Jan- Debo
Today we began to organise our images taken in our photo-shoot last week. To ensure our images for the digipak and website were diverse we decided that we would only use each image once to give our fans a more content. In addition to this all images taken in our production will be uploaded to our website gallery as a way of illustrating the progression of this boy band. Due to our band members booked schedule we have to decided to hold off on shooting for this week as our band members who are also Harris students have an official drama test next week. In the meantime we will start to developing the photo-shoot images.

Response to Shooting Day- Debo
For this shoot session we needed a significant amount of time to shoot outside of school with our band members and their love interests. This involved Vaughn and Montel and their love interests played by Lauren and Kamara respectively. We shot performance elements of our actors performing and dancing and also singing their performance to their love interests at different locations around Croydon. It was a different experience and was slightly harder than our previous production shoots because it was in an open and busy location which had very little control over. Additionally the large part of the footage which consisted of Montel singing to Kamara and it was shot with minimal setback in the most suitable place. However when looking at the footage gathered later I saw that the footage is covered with a yellowish tint which I realised was due to the sunlight coming through window in the ceiling. This footage appears unusable however researching colour correction it appears that this footage can be salvaged.

Update (9th January) - Update - Second day of photos Debo
After reviewing our band images from our first image shoot we decided to take more images of our band members with a variety of different locations, and capture our groups performing an action. In order to provide the illusion of taking various images on different days we decided that Montel, Vaughn and Fran should bring different sets of clothing which they could change in and out to give us a wider variety of shots allowing us with a wider range to pick for our website and digipak. These varieties of shots helped emulate the boy band convention as their clothing and actions were alike to our teen target audience.

Music Video Inspiration- Sharmin
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEYhGhdwMKI
The JLS music video inspired us because as a boy band, they had the element of performance which we could use in our music video. Simon Frith stated that music videos are characterised by three typologies. The performance typology is a common type where the group will singing while dancing. We liked the idea of having similar outfits to show the audience that they are in a group, making it easier for the target audience to recognise them. They are constructed by the industry to make out money from the audiences so it is important for audiences to recognise the boy band and sell the video. <br />
<br />
The back drop is similar to the costume colour that JLS are wearing which is visually interesting because it contrasts with the lighting. We liked how the lighting was made up of different colours because it looked simple but eye-catching. This will be useful to use in our music video because it will engage our target audience.

Change in our "Updated shooting script" - Sharmin
Our "Updated shooting script" was an idea that we came up with during production. However there has been changes as the characters have changed.
Kendall -- Francisco
Logan -- Vaughn
Iyaz -- Montel
As the characters have swapped the location to London is unnecessary to use. So we have chosen the character Logan to have his verse in a classroom and singing to his love interest. While Francisco's character, Kendall, will have his verse in a house party and singing to the camera and the guests at the party.
