This week I related the Laura Mulvey theory onto my own product and talked about how well it fits and how it doesn't fit by analysing the initial theory to my own music video, I found that yes it does fit in some aspects as the artist is feminine but also that it does challenge the theory as I made the artist stronger and have the power in the video instead of it all just being about how they look. I also did the first evaluation question and chose to present it on my account on emaze, I did this because I wanted to present things on different formats to show a wider range and noticed I only used this once on my blog so I thought I used it to present. I found out about this emaze through googling it and finding that and powtoon.

This week I am just focusing on planning and getting my evaluation questions done, this is the main focus this week as I want them to be perfect and consist of everything they need to. I want to make sure that me and my partner share them out and have enough detail in them to fully show why what and when about our ancillary tasks, to do them justice. I started on my plan for the 1st question so I was prepared and to know what to actually right about. I still need to do the plan for my 2nd question so I'm as prepared for it as the 1st one, I think this is a good tactic to use as when I start it I can keep looking back at it to remind me to say the right thing and to keep on track to answer the question properly.

This week I was just getting myself organised, I wanted to put everything I have done together on the blog and sort out the blog with the labels so everything is easy to navigate and find on here. I also wanted to make sure I have everything I need on the blog and focus on my planning and research to get that up to scratch and make sure that it is full of everything we have ever done, I think if I never have enough research and planning then it will be okay. I will gain constructive criticisms from a peer on this area on things i may of missed and what to improve upon to make this area more strong. I will then show what my peer said to improve and show how i did that.

This week we was taking more pictures of our artist, this is the stages we went through to get it up to scratch and show the best ability of our editin, we found the website fotor which allows me to edit the picture and get rid of blemishes and smooth the face or any wrinkles it is a really good and fun tool to use to make it look as professional as possible. I'm really happy with the last finished picture.

Production diary:This week we i posted our 3rd draft, to see all the changes was amazing I fell it looks so much better and so much more improved than the 1st and 2nd draft i posted as there is more footage and less space to fill, this is showing the bits that we have got rid of for example this bit in the 2nd draft of me singing in the garage we got rid of, we pretty much got rid of a lot of the footage used here due to the fact that we didnt like it and it didn't fit so we changed it all around so what is in that space now is me singing in a different space, it looks much better now.
However, we still have filming to do and take a few more pictures and then all we have to do is the evaluation questions, that I'm starting next week. We have finally established the artists look and the features that make Piper young a pop start, we have established her pop culture with her brand (the black smoke and the red lips) that fans should associate with her.

Whilst we had been off we filmed a bit more for our final draft and we had been editing and getting our website up to scratch, this is our opening page that we have finished, before we didn't have the pictures of me or the rose and we didnt know what the usp of our artist would be but obviously we have established the red lips and the black smoke on the background of our website so we decided to keep the font and the bigger picture of me going all the way through the website and on our digipak we are going to use the same font too.
We also started taking pictures for our digipak and set them up so they would look like a digipak, we posted our second draft but we soon changed nearly everything about it because we just wasn't satisfied with the amount we had and how underdeveloped it looked. We show how we changed it further up on the blog.

I wanted to show how i edited some of the shots in my music video to show the progress of what I have learnt through using premier pro, obviously the affect of the 'paint bucket' put the neon red colour into anything that is a similar colour to red and therefore shows it going a bit crazy this was out there to show the audience that the artist has gone crazy and the fact it is red has the connotation of love and blood that is why i wanted to use it. I also showed the reverse shots that i edited i found out how to do this my youtube, i asked how to do it and there are loads of clips that show how to do it, i wanted to use this to show that everything is distorted and messed up in her life right now, i now know how to edit a lot more things now especially compared to the start of the year when we did the preliminary task.

This week we published our first draft of our music video, we also had to show all the changes that we have done for example Katie is no longer the artist I am so I'm going to be doing the performance and narrative of the music video, we just found that i was less shy in front of the camera. We also have been editing all the shots we have so far and posted our first draft, it does have a lot of breaks in it because we dont have all the shots yet due to the delay but we are gonna be filming much more and finishing all the editing. We have a lot more ideas now for the music video to use and a decision for what the look of the artist will be, we have had to change the artists therefore the whole idea for the music video has to change as now there will only be me in the music video singing now.

I felt we needed to focus on our star image this week, we chose the name 'Piper Young' and that she is 21 from newyork and her personality traits, we started a facebook page and a twitter page to start it all off, after all this we were ready to film. we planned to go to katies to get all her shots done that day and do mine another time.

This week I focused on just research for inspiration and what is similar to what i want to do and what i like, i started by looking at BANKS genre which is alternative pop and then i just copied that title and typed it in Google i found that Lana Del Ray is similar to BANKS and so is Taylor Swift. therefore i watched their music videos and their look and i fell more for lane del ray i feel she is less mainstream and goes with the song more than Taylor swift so hugely Lana is my biggest inspiration. I also thought i really loved We found love in a hopeless place by Rihanna and liked the video to that because it has the same meaning of her song to Banks' song and I liked that the video made her look like she was going crazy in the relationship and that's what I want to achieve.

This week in media i decided to put together questions on which the audience decided for our star image, i thought it would be good to film a few questions so that it is more interactive than just people reading it off the screen, I also needed to look for what the makeup would be like for the artist and for the actress, this is important because we neede to show a clear contrast between the singer and the distroted woman going through this.

This week i finished my audience questionnaire on things like what genre should we do, what target audience to have etc. I also presented my music pitch to everyone using Emaze. Then i went on to research and analyse artist's websites i found this easy to just print screen the important bits on the website copy them on the world document and talk about them like that, this was useful to see the difference between gender, genre and how established they are.

This week I started on research into digipaks to prepare myself for when i need to come up with one for my artist, i made an emaze slideshow to show all the different types of digipaks and what one i liked the most for what reason. I then went on to making our own digipak, we used Katie to do this copying Rihannas Digipak 'talk that talk' i thought that went easy just because it didnt tak ethat long to take the pictures and to edit them we split it up i do two and katie did two, she found it hard to get a background of zebra print bed so she just got a wallpaper look and cut herself on to that. We also found out what our actual song choice is for our final piece of our music video which was exciting because we found it quite easy and got a reply form the man who remixed our song straight away he was even keen on watching our final product.
