Hi! Today I am stating that I have taken images for my digipak last Sunday night, they are images for the front cover of my digipak, also maybe for my lyric booklet and for the rest of the digipak. They are on my blog so check them out!
Also, I rang the strassen Swimming pool 'Les Thermes' in Luxembourg last night and asked whether I could film there, I had to wait quite a while since I rang them at 3:00 then they said can you call back at 5:00, then again to be told ring at 6:00. I spoke to a man twice and he has figured it all out and arranged it with me, allowing me to film there. I offered to come at a quiet time when no one is around, so 9 oclock or something. I initially said I would only need 15 minutes because I didn't want to cause an inconvenience so he said I would be able to start filming at 9:30 then finish at 9:45 when everyone has to leave the pool. I am going to try and ask him when i get there whether I can actually start filming at 9:00 and finish at 9:45. I don't think this will be an issue, especially if there is no one around in the pool at that time. Also, this we arranged, to be on the 19th of January which is Friday. So, I have asked cast member Alex, last night and he said he is fine with that and I have arranged transport to get there and back since it's somewhat far away from my house and I don't know how to get there by bus.
I have also decided to film on wednesday with alex from 4-8. I would start filming the scenes at my house with Alex at 4, then go and film around auchan with him after. I need to film the scenes between the couple which are intimate and somewhat sexual. We will be wearing different costumes for this than we wore in the earlier footage around auchan and in the fast food place 'quick'. I also want to film Alex on the bench that I sat on when Serge filmed me. I will also film the couple sitting on that bench together.
I am also going to get some audience feedback for all my cuts and sample scenes so far either today, tomorrow or the day after. I am definitely going to get all this for Friday.
That's all for this week. Bye!

Hi there! I am planning to take photos for my digipak with the sony a58 on Sunday night after school. I also plan to finally finish my first rough cut and get some audience feedback from this rough cut.
In lesson today for media, we started experimenting with our effect that we want to use on our digipak front cover image on photoshop. My effect was the double exposure effect. I watched lots of tutorial videos on how to create this effect and slightly tested it out. I also checked to see how you achieve the same effect on Final Cut Pro X. After watching these, I have now learned how to do these.
I still need to ring the Strassen swimming pool as to whether they will give me permission to film there. I want to film underwater footage of myself and Alex (the couple characters) in their swimming pool making out underwater and touching each other. I also want to film myself underwater floating in a dress.

Hi again! It's now 2018! I have done a lot recently in terms of filming and editing. Today I have just edited half a rough cut. I have discovered I have a LOT of footage, more than enough. However, I still have more scenes to film which are: the club scene, more scenes of the couple doing things and the underwater in pool scene. This will not take long to do, I plan to film the rest of this week. After I have filmed all the necessary footage, I will then see if I need to re-film anything. For example, after looking at some of the footage my classmate Richard filmed, I may have to re-film the shot which follows the main female protagonist walking outside around Auchan at night and crossing the zebra crossing, because you can see water splashes on the camera lens which block some of the shot. In terms of digipak and website, I have come up with a final idea for the design concept which is heavily influenced by Tokio Myers' album design for 'Our Generation'. The album cover is of Tokio Myers shirtless, not looking at the camera, standing infront of a redscreen in red lighting/red colour correction. There is also some light blue lighting/colour correction used on his left shoulder and left side of face. After seeing this album cover in the holidays I was really inspired, I think it is very striking, powerful and quirky. Also, the striking colours used here are a convention of electropop (the genre of my artist, Astrid S) so this design will work well for my digipak and overall design for my website. The website will heavily showcase Astrid S' new album meaning the digipak design will be all over the website too.

Hi I'm in England now as you know! Today I plan to film the bath scene with the main protagonist in the bath. I plan to film her face underwater looking upwards at the ceiling, her legs/feet underwater in the bath, her cuddled in a ball all sad in the bath from behind and from the front and her shooting upward forcefully after lying down underwater. I decided that it would be better to film the bath scene here in England rather than at my house in Luxembourg because the bath in this house I am staying in now, I thought, looked more idyllic and right for the vibe I wanted to create in this bath scene which is old fashioned but plain white simplistic with white small square tiles on the wall. Also, it is more convenient for filming since it is a bath stuck to the wall so, there is a really good place to put the camera (in between the two faucets and the place on the sink behind the bath). If I don't manage to get some of the footage right the first time I can always re-film it since I am staying in this specific house until the 27th of December.
I have also been coming up with ideas of posts for the social media accounts for my artist, Astrid S.
