Question Time
Hello and Welcome to another edition of question time. Ok, Im just joking. I have created a questionnaire using a website 'For Me To Know & You To Find Out' hahahahah. The questionnaire has been created for the evaluation and audience feedback. In doing so I am able to analyze what is good or bad for the products made.
Simply copy and paste the link into the search window.

Thank You =)
Rihanna - Rude Boy
Today whilst in the editing room me Shaunica and Becky were watching Rihanna's new video Rude Boy. As official music video directors and producers we gave ourselves the opportunity to critic her work. Where do I start it was simply a video we could even make. The video director simply used a green screen for the main back drop for the video making it very bright, colorful Jamaican style.If we were doing this we would have put the green screen into the drama studio and got the art students to create a back drop. Alternatively we could have asked Pui-San to use her 'Finger-Tip-Making-Trick-Pro-PhotoShop-Imagination to create something on PhotoShop that we lated edit or re-arrange on the images.
Now that is just one part covered he costume and make up did suit the back drop (or should I say clashed with the back drop) but not her. Well maybe that what she wanted to create. Well who knows, after her track Disturbia anything could happen. But I didnt she would have taken it literally. After CB attacked her she has kind of gone 'LOOP THE LOOP' maybe that should be her next song.
The transitions used seem to be 'Fast/Slow Reverse, Mirror, Cross Dissolve and N-Square' now if she didn't get these transitions from IMovie, where did she get them from. As for the video effects she selected Editing in the options pane, clicked on Video Effects and then selected Adjust Colours (trust me I'm an expert at this I've been doing it for 2 years and know it better than the TEACHERS). When it came to choosing the colours she went Disturbia again and selected ALL. I don't even know how to do that. Get Her!!!!
Similar to our own projects where we have to use inspiration and influences in our video, Rihanna has kind of done the same thing with her 'Zebra Scene'. Its got Lady Gaga written all over it.
Considering I cant dance cos' I have to left feet I give her a thumbs up for the shaky hip moves she uses - which was taken from Shakira's - Hips Dont Lie. But who can blame her, Shakira can even she shake her hips better than Beyonce check out the video they done together called Beautiful Liar (Beyonce hasn't got a clue)
Now think about this carefully. She has just spent a fair few $$$ on this video all because of the video effects and transitions and all she had to do is come to a little town called Dagenham, visit Robert Clack School and ask on the the media students to help her out. I am sure we would have don't it for a few BOB. And if she wanted a Digi-Pak and Magazine Advert I'm sure we could have done a deal.But Pui-San comes with her own rates.
Well I'll let you judge it for youself. I present to you the video Robert Clack Media students could have saved Rihanna lots of KERCHING ....

B.E.T Live Lounge Implementation
As I have the ideas I want for the programme, I have started putting it together. I have found the appropriate opening titles as well as opening theme. Similar to the example played on This Morning the song is catchy and I have been able to make a little dance for it. In addition the track used for the opening sequence suits the role it is going to be used for.
B.E.T Live Lounge Example Opening Sequence
As you can see the theme tune matches the speed of the opening titles. For this example I have used simple images of artists just to show what I want to achieve as a final outcome. These images would change and would relate more to the cast and crew of the initial programme.

B.E.T Live Lounge Planning
As promised I have decided to create a music programme as part of my evaluation. In doing so I have asked a few of my friends to act as presenters and a girl band representing 4FLAVA. For continuity purposes I have ensured that the same cast members used on the music video have been used as the members of the girl band. I started the idea before the half term but I am now in the editing process. In order for the TV Programme to resemble a chat show as I wish to achieve, I have looked at existing British TV Chat Shows. From the results given by Wikipedia I learned that I was in fact a TV Show addict with many of my favorite being highlighted.
This includes:
• Alan Carr Chatty Man
• Friday Night With Jonathan Ross
• The Graham Norton Show
• Jeremy Kyle (My All Time Favorite)
There were several others on the list that I did watch but didn't consider them as my favorite.
Knowing that these were the TV Chat Shows I very much enjoyed I wanted to incorporate a touch of This Morning as well as GMTV into what I wanted to create. So I selected a theme in IMOVIE a basis/template for the programmes intro. I also used freeplaymusic.com to find an appropriate song for the programme.
With all the results the programme will be a succuess.
Happy Birthday
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Its my birthday today so I think I'm going to treat myself. You know get my hair done, go downtown with my friends, back to mine to continue the party a few drinks ... the party don't stop here ...
'Wake Up Aicha, Wake Up. Its time to go to school. Your going to be late. You have already missed one bus' said Mum as poured water on my face.
There I was half way through my dream birthday and she had to wake me up. I cant even try and close my eyes for an extra 5 minutes to see what happen at the end. This reminds of what I learned in Media, about how dreams are something we wished to happen in reality ... if only they could come true. Well, enough about dreams, I am up now and I guess I have to go to school for one lesson and then editing, blogging and more editing. What fun that will be. Well I guess I'll see you later.
Wish me the best because the dream I wished for didn't exactly come true =)

Its Back To The Old Skool
It the first day back to school am I really excited to see the final product of everyone's music video. Due to the fact that I was not here on the last day of term I really need to catch up.
It was a surprise to be back in Mr. Williamson's class because we hadn't been taught by him for about a month. But this was only because we were completing our music video. On arrival to the lesson I find out that Kristian a fellow pupil has finished her music video. She was sooooo relieved that she had finish. I congratulated her for it. The class were also happy to hear that I had competed my own music video. They all said that it looked good and that I had done very well after all that filming and editing. For the first part of the lesson we just talked about what we did over the half term (which wasn't much) and the plans we have during the week.
Once the lesson began properly Mr. Williamson asked us what we would like to do. Being the opinionated one I decided that we go through the evaluation points so that we all know what to do and the expectations of the exam board. In doing so we worked as a group to brake down the question and think of possible answers for of the question. Once all the questions were covered sir gave us the option to either stay in lesson and discuss how the course has been and university options or go to the IMAC room to start our evaluation. We all decided to start our evaluation with no hesitation to that.
