Web Site Home Page Design

 
 
 
Bottom half of the Background was done in Photoshop to create the light ball to keep the same house style of the CD digi-pack. I then used Microsoft Publisher to piece together the images from the digi-pack to keep it in theme and created shapes for the buttons to form the web site.
 
Shadow was added to the buttons to give sense of a light source.
 

Construction of the CD Digi Pack





I first gathered shots from the footage we took to become the images of the Package.
I then Took each image into Photoshop, which then I assembled onto premade templates (to get the correct sizing but without inhibiting creativity) which I found online.

With the templates I assembled enough Pages to create the digi-pack. To piece the Pages together I used Microsoft Publisher with to more templates to make sure the pages are in the right place for printing and so that the back cover has the edge boarders which I also found online.

Story boards



Some of the stots shown where impractical and some creative decisions where changed in post production  and during production such as the order of the shots.

Filming set


This device is called a Spider pod, it can be manipulated into different shapes to create different shots


 This the way we mounted a Cannon 550D on the pod. The camera was fitted with a auto-stabilising lens.  
We used it to create smother panning shots. 
 
 
For stationary shots we used a Cannon 7D with a 50mm prime lens, on a standard tripod.
The lens allows for great close up shots and extreme close up shots with intense depth of field. We use this for the lip syncing part for this.
We used the light illuminated the area due to it being to dark in the room. 
 
 
For when Tamsin did the filming;
 





Tamisn used a Cannon 100D on a tripod which is very similar to the 7D and 550D.
