locations in london- Sharmin




The location was used for our extra filming because as mentioned before the yellowish tint in some of the footage could not have salvaged so there was a re-shoot. We chose to film in South Bank because the area is iconic and represents London which is something we wanted to show in the video because it linked well with the concept of "world." Also it would help the target audience engage with the video because of the usage of the famous landmarks.

Digipak update - Sharmin

The draft shows what the front cover will look like however the background will be used throughout the digipak in order to have a continuous theme. It is important to have a continuous theme because it attracts the target audience and encourages them to consume the product.


A problem occurred which delayed the process of the digipak. Other schoolwork had earlier deadlines meaning that I had to prioritise the schoolwork before continuing with the digipak. I also could not access the software InDesign used to create the digipak as I was producing the digipak outside of school therefore the process of producing a completed version of the digipak is delayed.

Editing Footage 2- Debo
























Our extra shoot at Crystal Palace proved to be extremely helpful when editing our footage. We have also solved one of the problems which we encountered when editing previously with the yellow tint which comes up in some of our footage. By editing the hue of the image and enhancing the colour of the video in Final Cut express we can eliminate the majority of the yellow tint improving the look of the footage. This allows us to have more to edit in the music video.

Website Construction- Debo



We started our website construction using the cloud-based web development platform Wix this is a relatively new experience for us all who have no past experience with website design. We have desinged merchandise and inputed various images of 1 Nation which are constructed to have a lasting impact to increase the brand of our band. Additionally we plan to implement the use of social media to allow the band to connect with the fasn and we hope this  along with images will heighten their Pop Star effect. A problem that we have encountered with the website design is that Wix is not compatible with all school computers only running on computers in the media classroom. To overcome this problem we will have a rota of each person that will work in the Media room during their free period to ensure the website is completed before the deadline.

Extra Shoot- Debo
































We decided to shoot a few extra scenes for our music video due to a few unusable scenes from our previous shoots. This session was shot in Crystal Palace Park during sunset which provided us with beautiful yet limited lighting that none of our other sessions had provided us with before. One benefit of shooting in Crystal Palace park was lack of people in the park this allowed us to capture a better sense intimacy with our band members and their love interests. These intimate momets can have a immense effect on the music video and can even provide fans with gratification in the form of escapism aided with the sceneric and performance shoots.

(update) 10th march- Sharmin




This was a shooting day which required us to be outside in the park as the setting was tranquil and there was a lot of space. The space was needed as the boy band needed to dance in different locations. We have chosen to add a dancing element in the video because from Frith's theory, there are three main typologies used in music videos and from my research I have learnt that a performance element would be essential to use in order to attract and engage the target audience.After looking back at the editing and the footage that we collected we noticed that there was a lot of lip-syncing involved therefore we chose to have the boy band dance without lip-syncing as this will add to the idea of enjoyment and creative -"ruled the world." Having elements in the park also link to the idea of enjoyment as they have the freedom to dance in an open space
