Group messages

During the production and filming stages of the media project of making the music video we had to discuss and arrange a lot of things outside of school. We did most of this by mobile phones on i-Message. We discussed days to meet up, who was blogging what posts and what needed to be completed next. By planning by text messages, this made it a lot easier to communicate so that we didn't have any technical difficulties when trying to get through to each other.

We found if we messaged just on one place for example over text it mean't we had all messages in one designated area, therefore we were able to go back on messages and check what we had decided for that blog, that day of filming etc. We were also able to share footage over it to one and another so it could be transferred onto the Macbook for editing.

Here is a message between myself and Olivia when planning on meet ups, this was on a day we had planned to meet and we had to change it as it was raining and the filming wouldn't have fit the first lot of filming.




We also used our school emails to send over files and pictures that we needed to go on the blog.
We communicated in the way shown above and the rest was done in person as we see each other regularly in school we could communicate mainly through lessons to plan filming and blogging rather than having to communicate through messages.

Website analysis of Dua Lipa

Website Home Page The home page features a black and white theme keeping it simple and modern. The photo featured is of the artist 'Dua Lipa'. This is to show the artist on the main page and this is because that is what her fans want to see when they click onto her website.

There is also a navigation bar featuring white headings that when you hoover over them they underline and this is to help you navigate your way around the website easily. By having the navigation at the top and easy to see just means that they're more likely to keep navigating and exploring the website as the navigation bar will be able to show more things to explore when hovered over.

Equipment/Lighting decisions in our music video

Lighting is very important in music videos, as it allows it to be easier to see and also as it sets certain moods and atmospheres. An example of this would be, if we used low amount of lighting then it'll be setting a dull and sad atmosphere which would help highlight the meaning behind the song is not a positive atmosphere. Also the other way round as well, as if a large amount of colour is used then it'll set a more upbeat atmosphere and show that they're more likely to be given a positive media video to see.  Jessie J clip Here is a clip of Jessie J where she has dull lighting which represents the atmosphere as dull and an unhappy situation. The song is of a sad subject, it is negative song lyrics, this is helped by the lighting as its all dull however she is shown with a little more light over her so that she is highlighted as the main  This music video gives an impression of a dull meaning behind it just by the setting and equipment used in the shots, thi

Textual Analysis- Please don't leave me by Pink

Performance: The performance consists of Pink, the artiste dressed as a nurse, but not your typical hospital nurse. it is more of a sexy nurse outfit, which is suppose to appeal to the male gaze. Lyrics:  The song is about a couple with a a controlling girlfriend that is abusive towards her boyfriend, pushing him away but not wanting him to actually leave her. '   "I always say how I don't need you, but it's always gonna come right back to this, please don't leave me." Genre / mise en scene: The song is a Pop rock, dance pop song. whereas the video genre is horror/thriller. Camerawork: The camera is often seen following Pink, there is often the use of low angle that makes Pink appear powerful. Editing: Often the shots are continuous,especially when they are fighting at the start, they are also quite jumpy and choppy to go with their fast actions. There is a lot of back and forth with the use of continuous to show the set and the scenes. I
