Music Page Progress

Today, i planned and designed the layout for my music page on the TRILL website. In the box at the bottom there will be a gallery where users can flick through pictures of an event i am yet to decide on. On the right i want to include some videos of up and coming artists doing covers of their selected songs (this is where i wish to include the concept i came up with "TRILL BUSY IN THE BOOTH". In the middle will be shortened articles with links to other pages to view the whole article and then on the left will be a live twitter feed. Tomorrow i will begin to add the content i need. like the images, and maybe a few of the videos. So far, the only problem i have encountered is getting familiar with the settings and hundreds of different options available on wix. I had to start over twice after noticing the links to other pages kept getting muddled up. But now i am confident with the template i have created and i am ready to start giving the website some body!!!

Designing

After seeing Babz' sketch of the Trill logo with a twist for the music section for our wix website, our whole group has decided to do a different logo for each separate section to the website, e.g fashion, sport and art. We will be drawing all our sketches up soon and uploading them, so look out!

"Trill Busy In The Booth"

Today i came up with the concept and designed a logo for "Busy In The Booth". this will be the main focus topic for the music page on Trill's website. It is basically an opportunity to hear exclusive interviews and live covers from up and coming artists. On the MTV website, they have music videos and so to give us some orignality we are using our own videos of artists. I aim to get at least 10 videos. I'm also planning to take pictures of the people i am using as musicians. This will be done on

Style of News Package

This lesson I have spent some time looking at various adverts and other news reports trying to raise awareness for skin cancer, mainly focusing on sunbeds. I've selected two videos which I think are the most effective, not only in getting the message across but also about raising awareness to the cause that many young people are now finding and interest in.

VIDEO 1

The video above is a real life story of this girl that was increasingly using sunbeds. The video was released by cancer research to raise awareness. Throughout the video it is constantly zooming in and out of her face, close up shots of her mouth and other areas.

VIDEO 2

This video is from the BBC and it highlights all the dangerous factors of sunbeds that we might not physically see on a day to day basis but are still harming us very much. Nicola Roberts, member of the girl band 'Girls Aloud', has taken the roll to open this girls eyes to the harm she is doing to her body at a young age.

BBC: Media blamed for 'sexualisation' of young girls

In todays lesson, i am making a start on the reporters script. I have been looking into reports on tanning. I am doing this so i can understand how this topic is approached but also so i can get ideas on what important facts need to be included in the dialouge.

Music Page For The Website

I have been looking at how MTV has laid out their music page on their website because I think it works really well and has such a large fan base. The first thing I noticed was the content. They have filled the page with the current music which interests their target audience and have made sure there is enough on the page to keep the viewer entertained. There are videos, links and picture and the page seems very animate. At the bottom, there seems to be a live twitter feed which allows the users to comment on the go and keeps the website up to date with all the latest comments. There is also a button underneath which allows you to follow MTV. These are all things I would like to incorporate into TRILLS music page. I think I will use this a template whilst creating mine.

Production Roles

In this lesson we've assigned everyone in group certain roles in the production of the news package ensuring that the whole process runs smoothly. So, for example, someone will be designated to the role of the camera, who will be in charge of the shooting and the variety of shots that will be used during the news package.

Babz
Has been assigned the role of 'camera man' who will be filming the whole of the news package ensuring a number of a range of shots will be used and make the news package as interesting as possible using transitions and angles.

Fabio
Fabio will be in charge of all the props we will be using. This includes writing up a prop list that is appropriate for our news package, getting and bring them to the set and actually setting them up ensuring they look as professional as possible.

Chandni
Has agreed to present and have the main role of the news reporter. A script will be written up by everyone in the group and in which she will read from but not directly.

News Report subtitle

During the lesson I made the subtitle for our news report, this is what will appear at the bottom of the screen telling the viewer the name of the person who is being interviewed and what their obligation is. The colours that have been chosen for this are the same colours as our logo and therefore related with our News Corporation.
