R+P Post 33: Reflections on my role and contribution during Research and Planning

This far into the project I am really please about how we are progressing as a group and how our project is taking shape. I have done a short write-up below detailing what I personally have done to contribute to the research and planning stages of the project.


  • I drew up a timeline of our chosen track, Sun Goes Down. This was really useful working in tandem with the storyboard as it allowed us to more accurately judge whether the length of each scene seemed appropriate or not.
The timeline was where I split the track into logical sections
dependent on dynamics/tempo/feel.
  • I organised testing the studio lighting using the Leap Frog lighting desk during our test shoots. This was really useful both before we had decided to use green screen, as it allowed us to explore colour, and also getting the right warmth and shadow prevention on the green screen when we ended up deciding to use it.
I used the lighting desk to change the colour and intensity
of the lights.
  •  When it came to editing the test footage and constructing a rough edit, I tried out various effects on the footage we had shot.
I key framed colour correction on a shot in the test footage
to see how it appeared.
  • Once we had come up with some ideas for the digipak panels, I created a rough sketch to depict how we all felt the final thing should look.

  • I researched and purchased the glow-in-the-dark paint we planned on using, however after testing we found it did not work as well as we had expected.

  • Since I am the DJ featuring in the music video, I have also been involved acting in the test shots.

In conclusion, I think our group are working really well together, contributing equal amounts to the project, and I can't wait to start the production stage.
