So with everything finished, all left to do was to make the dvd menu. I choose to put the picture of me and Sibley, which is on the right of this blog, as the background and choosed to set it to one of the in built themes on iDvd. Also including the music of Mark Ronson's "God Put A Smile On Your Face" it all looked very jazzy. I was inspired by the dvd menus of Chris Cunningham, which also had lots of screens showing his music videos.
On the dvd was put our actual media coursework and two side music videos that me and Paul Cooper had made which look like this and this.
Everything finished now ... sigh ... now just the evalution and the CRS exam to look forward to.
Wahey! Well done Tevez :) ... hope everyone had a good weekend.
P.s Heres the focus group that I should of uploaded ages ago when I had it finished (on the 4th of Nov ... gulp):
Hmmmmm ain't posted in a while it seems ... going on here feels weird ... should probably do some CRS really.
But meh the music video is finished now, here it is:
Comment if you want ... hopefully we might get a comment or two on youtube ... but I'm not sure I can be bothered with shamelessy self promoting on loads of forum sites ... I don't really like the video much apart from the bit where I place the glass to the camera, the eyebrows before the guitar solo, how it gets all hectic near the end of the guitar solo to reflect the music and the shot of the metal horizontal lines.
Thats just me really ... come to the conclusion that after being introduced to the indie genre that all student films are quite boring really ... just lacking the proffessional touch you know?
Although the bit in Caitlins with katie's sister does look very good and proffessional ... quite jealous.
Might do something for the DVD menu ... if we do the plans with be posted on here shortly.
The epic directors of 'Dagga', 'Hairesis' and the newly finished 'The Strokes - Last Nite'.
These two lads are hot stuff in whats new and hot in the new wave of young directors.
Dagga (Oli Shilling, Stu Green and Zal Jones) - Is a dark drug thriller is set in pleasant village of thurston.
**** (4 STARS) - THE GUARDIAN
Hairesis (A debut role of emo cult icon Josh Sharman ... also staring Jake Nicholls, Rob Miller, Jack Stanton and not forgetting Zal Jones) - Set in an age where one adolescent teenager can dethrone a government with just a really large black briefcase. This is truly an flawless 3 minute thriller classic.
***** (5 STARS) - THE TIMES
The Strokes - Last Nite (Staring Zal Jones, Paul Cooper, Rob Miller, Jack Brown, Jack Stanton and Jake Nicholls) - Is a new twist on the indie music video scene ... these two directors created their own set ... which resembles your everyday greasy spoon (created in the woolpit insituit) from scratch ... with a narrative focused on unknown and unsigned indie actor Zal Jones and set to the shimering sounds of 'The Strokes' ... 'Last Nite' is a triumphant debut music video.
