Fonts

These are some of the fonts i found for the energy drink are group is making that i think would look decent for the drink as it gives it that edgy feeling like monster with there drinking and logo its just not normal for a drink to be like that.
first we had to find the fonts on a website called DAFONT this website has millions of fonts to chose from like calligraphy type writing to box typing to this or even street art like font but these are the ones i choice because its more of a energy drink type of font in my opinion so then to get it on Photoshop i had to print screen it then paste it on there so i can edit it so its the font on its own and not the whole page with it only the text so i had to use the rectangle marquee tool to crop everything around the font so that's what left only the font and not the whole page then i  had to do that 5 more time to get all six and then save it as a jpeg then upload it on here

http://www.dafont.com/mtheme.php?id=1&page=26&text=emerge the link to the website

So in the second session of the day we had to create are label for the energy drink so me and Yasmine created this for are bottle label where it has everything you need and gives a freaky feeling to it with the background so its really different to other drinks labels like Lucozade and monster so its a really good look to it in my opinion.

And in the third session we had today we got introduced to the library and where we can print stuff like work or other things and some where to go if we just need to get work done or some thing like that so its just a place to get things done that need to be done and quick.  

Freaky advert

Freaky advert 

group 1

Today we were split in to groups of 3 and i was in group one with Dee and Yasmine and we were told to find a minimum of 3 freaky adverts and why they were freaky but first we had to get to know each other a bit more so we told each other are names and what are skills are i don't really have many skills to be honest well i cant think of any but Dee was good with a camera and Yasmine was good with make up then finally we had to say like what object we can bring in like props and make up and costumes which me and Dee could bring props and Yasmine could bring the other things.

Little Baby Ice Cream
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erh2ngRZxs0 in this advert you see a man just staring straight in to the camera while eating ice cream off of himself and you just feel uncomfortable while watching it as you feel like he is staring straight in to your soul so you cant feel safe while watching this advert and i don't know how this was allowed to be shown in japan as a advert for baby ice cream. This advert does not really use sound there is only someone talking in the back ground












Phones 4 U
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2oL_gXECtg in this advert you see a woman coming back from her shopping coming in to a car park just walking to her car and then suddenly from behind her you see a little 5 year old girl just following her and creeping her out with following her until she is in the car and the little girl is right out side with a phone it just makes you feel uncomfortable watching it make you feel like your being watch from something. the sound in this advert is both diegetic and non diegectic  because you can see certain sounds coming from her shoes and her gasping when she see the kid but when the kid shows up the music drops and becomes very minor keyed and very weird.

Phones 4 U (2)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrIZnC8q7RQ in this advert you see a man running though the woods being chased in the mist so you cant really see much of what is going on but then suddenly there is a ,man next to him and then gives him a phone to advertise there company the advert just gives a horrible feeling and the feeling of being chased which people hate and the music was very tense and very spooky like something big is going to happen so its a very minor key.

Metz vodka 
in this advert you see a man that looks like jack frost chasing a man though the forest while holding the metz vodka and this is in the middle of a snow forest like Narnia so you cant run so you see jack frost chasing some guy though a forest and finally he takes him to where everyone else is and everyone is drink this vodka so he decides to have some and he likes it then suddenly it turns back to a puppet show again and it started like a puppet show. The music in this advert is very minor toned
when hes get taken but this jack frost looking creature.

Brain Storm

In this session we had to brain storm new ideas for are freaky advertisement with are new group so in group 1 we had myself Dee and Yasmine and we had to get new ideas for the advert so at first we had ideas of food I.E the skittles advert where everything turns to skittles but we choice to go against that and gone for an energy drink instead because we could do like a chase scene then  suddenly have a drink of this certain drink and be so pacey the supernatural creature could not keep you or even the the creature have the drink and it give it to me and it not be chasing me for the wrong reason but we just decided to do something completely different one person would bust though a door and would seel it to the audience at least this is what we are thinking of doing but it could all change but tomorrow

freaky photos to recreate on photoshop

v

photos in the right content

in this photo its show symmetry as you have 2 turtles on both sides so its the same and its good 

the blur shot for affect and the make the image different from normal photos that would of been taken of this simple shot 

this is a cropped shot as its just showing hi head and not his hole body you use this to show the emotion on the person and how they are portrait  

this is the Rule of thirds as they dont have the main object right in the middle they have it towards the side of the photo to give it more of an affect of how they use the object 

in this photo you can see a wolfs face shows how framing is important as he has positioned his face persistently in the cameras face how how it looks so detailed 

this photo shows how the leading lines can be shown and how affect it is with how everything is placed in  a line so you can clearly see everything that is involved in the photo

is this photo you can see there is a balanced element as the main subject is off the center so it make it much more interesting to look at 

in this photo is showing the viewpoint if the people in the photo 

this photo is showing how background can make a photo can look so good as if it was and where other then in the snow you would not feel sorry for it 

this photo shows the depth with many people in the photo in in focus and looks really good because you can see all the emotion the the peoples face even the ones at the back 

New camera work

Today we got to play around with cameras on tripods and all the different shot we could do with them there was 5 main ones tilt, pan, still, jib and steady cam and we had to practice these shoots in groups of 3s so in my group we had me Nathan and Elliot and all of us had to practice talking all of these shots outside or where ever we wanted around the college practicing these shots.

So we went off to take these photos, we went out of the college in the courtyard and took took these photos first up was Elliot and his photos turned out great with all of his videos then  Nathan took his photos in E floor seating area which turned out alright but the problem being there was just too many people coming though so we had a limited time doing it and then we it was my turn and i took my pictures on D floor near the library and they turned out ok but i will deffenetly need to work on my camera skills i think .

Photoshop

my second attempt at doing this 

my very first attempt at this 

These are two of the ghostly images we were told to make today with a different background each time and we had a power point given to us telling us what we needed to do and i found it really usful as i have never really used photoshop before last week so this made it really simple for me to do i was done in like 10-15 minutes first we had to get a image off of google images like the abounded hospital with ash and mudkip off of pokemon and so first we had to import a picture on to Photoshop then we had to re size it to fit the A4 sheet of paper then import the picture of ash or mudkip in change there size and then we had to adjust the desature of the photo (crt+shift+U) to give it that ghostly feel then we had to to change the blur to make it so its more faded out and spooky and finally change the opacity if the picture so its more see though and i just did the same for the top one.

In the second seesion of the day we had to create a basic banner though Photoshop again and after the banner was made you had to find a freaky photo off of the internet and put it with your banner so first we had to put a rectangle down so we had a starting shape and then used the anchor on the pen so we can change the shape so now we have a dent in the shape and it made it look very different then we had to crate a new shape from a rectangle to a triangle very simple to do as well then add it together and thats what we did today. 

advertisement music

We were told to find a advert that uses music to change the advert and how it affect the advert this was the advert we used https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1ceAFeT-7s the new Audi RS3 Sportsback as the first of the 3 we had to do and the music was very minor keys and sounded very elegant and the tempo speed up towards the end of the advert. the point of this advert is to show that the new Audi RS3 is like the super powerful sports car the  Audi R8 but just less expensive and a bit less powerful so they are trying to get power to feel like there are just as powerfull cars out there with out spend thousands of pounds on the most powerful car they do.

secondly we were told to find a make up commercial so we picked the new l'oreal advert https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnvngwDic7A the tempo was rather fast and it had a range of keys though out the video, it had major keys as it was a very upbeat advert about there new product and it had a non diegetic sound to it as we could not see the music playing in the background. In this advert you see a person walking on stage looking all confidant because shes got her brand new make up on.

 we had to find a sofa advert so we choice csl advert https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XGM8b_fjww and is this one is a very minor key and and also a very slow tempo and not a very wide range of keys as its the same all the way though the advert and it also has a non diegtic sound as you cant see where the sounds coming from and you only hear it. In this advert we see lots of people looking at new sofas and other things like vases and footrests.

next we did pepsi new advert dancing in the rain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCBUh-0w3Ck and its trying to attract young people to drink there pepsi max and feel refreshed when they have a drink of it, it has a very high tempo so its appealing to the young generation different keys though the song and its differently a major key as its wanting people to be happy though drinking the new pepsi max its got a bit of both diegetic sound and non diegetic sound as you hear music in the back ground but its looks like the people on the advert are singing it when they are on the screen. In this advert you see groups of people walking up to a dance floor with a DJ up there and dance for like 10 minutes then suddenly Pepsi comes down and drenches all of them in Pepsi while they are still dancing.

the new pepsi advert

this is a sheet we were given to write down the different types of music in an advert and how they affect the advert and how you feel watching it 

this was my original draft for my subversive advert this way i had an idea of what i was needing to do before just getting in to it but you cant really see it that well from this image but it turned out just like i wanted it to on the final advert below 

Then in the second part of the session we looked at subversive adverting and how its affect big company's reputation like shell how they are getting away with planting oil farm in places like the north pole and other area causing damage to these place and they will never look the same again. Then we had to change something about the couple of photograph to make it different to other subversive advertisements.

Camera work

Today we had are first lesson with mark and in this lesson we learned all about how cameras work and how they shoot and first we got a go have a go with the camera out and about we were given 2 news letters  and told to reenact 4 photos of are choice and in groups of 5-6 we went off after choice those pictures and at first it was kinda awkward because we did not really know each other so after like 10 minutes we went back to the classroom we were the first in  with all of are camera shot after 2 minutes of waiting for everyone else to come back and then we went for break.

In the second session we had to look at all the photos we took and shared them with everyone in the group it was kinda awkward to show everyone the photos and looking weird but it was ok by the end as everyone had shown there photos we go sent off on the final task of the day which was identify news just though photographs so we had photos like 9/11 and identify  that was pretty simple to say what that was but there was also a lot harder one like the kid that was found washed up on the beach and that was it really day over.

this was everything we need to know about the cameras we would be working with and in general for camera all 

Video Camera

As i walk in to the room we see a new teacher and she want people to come with her to get the cameras and the tripods so we can do the work for today so like 6 people put there hands up and volunteered to go get the camera with her while all the other lift in the room just talk about what we did before collage what we wanted to do if this was not it all this new people talk so we talk for about 10 minutes and then the teacher came back from picking up all the cameras and we were told to go out and take 4 shots extreme close up just a normal close up a wide shot and a medium shot all these we the shots we had to do for the teacher.

So we went out and took the shots around the campus and of the campus it was really fun taking random photos of other making jokes and other thinks to do so it was a really good time with everyone .
Then after that it was break and we just went to Sainsburys got some gum and some drinks then went back to collage.
now its final lesson of the day and we had to learn to use the tripods right and me and Elliot did perfectly no problems at all it was a really fun and a new experience.

photoshop freak or unique

Today we used Photoshop for the first time and its was really fun we had one hour thirty minutes of just messing around with layers,importing images, transform and though all this made a freaky image of a kid with a sword and a pirate hat on and we started off by opening up the program Photoshop then when that opened we had to click file and new to create are own piece of work we were told to find a picture of a animal and make it look really freaky with the third eye on this animal so we had to expand the image using ctrl+t to make the image look alright and much bigger as it was really small to begin with then we had to apply it to make it clean and not  pixelated so its much clearer to see and then we had to clone stamp on it to copy something from that image like a eye or a mouth something like that as you can copy it on to something else like what i did with the dog's eye and putting it on its forehead and then we were told we need to out different pictures on to a different image so i choice a pirate hat a mine craft sword and a picture of a kid meme on the internet and this was what we did on photoshop for the day just getting to know the program and the basic of what we can do

my final piece of the day still needs a lot of work but its a decent start

This was my first attempt at doing the work

Day 1 advertisement

The first half of class was getting are collage email sorted and starting this my blog page for the rest of the year here i will be using this so after we sorted this we were given a blank sheet and we had to wait to turn it over anything could be on the other side of it but like 1 minute later we turned it over it was a load of slogans some I've heard of most not though so that was a challenge for me i got 5 out of 10 right in only ten minutes i was pretty happy with that to be fair then we moved on the the main task of the day trying to advertise something that's like impossible we had to advertise a digital camera on the side of a taxi for student to buy this was a really challenge for me and my group of four Ben,Jasmine, Devin and me Sam and we really struggled to think of idea for this project and eventually we came up with ideas the slogan was my idea 'what you've been missing' which we all though was ok Ben came up with a suggestion of 'what you need' but we agreed with what you've been missing and other suggestions we agreed on like speech bubbles coming off the camera saying its main selling points like HD videos 60 megapixels camera 8GB of internal storage and built in WIFI.

So its the break its 2:30 and three of us Elliot Nathan and Me decided that we should of to McDonald's it took us 5 minutes to walk there and we wait 10 minutes for Nathans meal and he ate it in 4 minutes!!! and double chesse burger large fries and large coke all in 4 minutes unbelievable so we got back like 3 minutes late.

So its last lesson of the day and we had to present are advertisement and we were rushing to get finished but we just did but we did not have everything we wanted on the A3 piece of paper so we did not talk about all of the point of the camera just the point that was on the A3 piece of paper and i fell like it went really well

we did this in the first session and we had to think of the slogan of the company's and i actually found it really hard and there was not many of these company's i actually know
