final textual analysis!! bit late sorry guys!!!
The final textual analysis is on the video "chase and status ft plan B- end credits"
This song is based on the film "Harry Brown", which is a British "gangsta" film. This involves an intertextuality as it links to the film and includes scenes of the film.
The genre of this video represents drum and bass music, and focuses on a lead male vocalist. It sees him walking through streets of london, focussing on the crime and violence.
The relationship between music and visuals - at the beginning you see him lying down on the floor, looking as if hes in pain..whilst you hear "when the blood drys in my veins" representing death. This video shows no instruments of any kind, as it is literally the lead singe and clips from the film "Harry Brown".
There are many close ups of the lead singer, who is also a main character in the film. It shows his clear facial expressions, mainly faces of anger with little emotion aswell as singing along to the lyrics.
The video tells a story, but i don't think its narrative based as it follows the typical conventions of having a lead singer.
Well, thats it for now folks...hope this makes sense! And i would reccomend the film to anybody :)
Lots of Love, Rache, Mike and Liv xxxx

Final Post for this evening =]
Hey guys... again =P
This is our advert for our album and the band =] i hope you likes...
We couldn't keep the layer of the girl and the mist in the image, this is because we needed the writing to stand out more.
i don't partically like the OUT NOW because it doesn't stand out that well because of the background. I would changed the colour but i feel that it wouldn't work with the whole image.
This was taken from the dvd cover image. But we had to edit it we had the files with all layers not merged down on the image.
i hope you all like it =]

Inside the dvd case
Hey again!!!!
This is our inside picture for the dvd cover. i hope you like it =]
This is a massive contrast against the outer cover of our dvd cover, but we wanted to get the two main characters involved within the dvd package. We wanted the two main characters to look at each other lovingly. We then decided to have a misty effect of each main character to look like they are thinking of each other, and that they are closer than they appear to be
i hope you like. please give feedback.. another post coming about the advert.
post you all in 2 minutes =]
loves you guys!!!

Dvd case cover!
Hey guys!
here's the final Dvd cover for our video. The ideas for the dvd cover was discussed by our group and then we decided to ask a friend to help draw out the design. =] Hope you like it...
Origanally, the design was going to be a boy stuck in the woods by himself, with wolves coming through the trees, to get him.
Then we decided it didn't partically go with the album and band name, than we expected it too. so we decided to change our image to a boy stroking a wolf under looking the mouth, with wolves onlooking towards them. The idea of the girl in the mist at the top, symbolises that the boy is thinking/ talking about the girl to the wolf because he feels scared and wants to be with the girl.
hope you like it the dvd cover. give feedback on wwhat you think =]
love you all!

UPDATEE =] =] =]
Heyy guyss :) :)
ahhh final day..scary stuff!!
We had to re-storyboard as we could not get all the "band" people all together in the same place at the same time...and also the new storyboard creates a better understanding of the story in the video..typically of a young boy and girl meeting.
SO....
There is NEW actors..Gemma Williams and Nelson Priest. Wahay!!
Gem and Nelson were easier for us to get and were more available compared to the others.
In our video..there is no band shots as it was just too difficult to plan and was impossible to find members.
We did our last 10 seconds of filming today and finished all the editing so our video is complete now.
We'll upload the final version shortly so you can all see.
Any feedback would be grrrreat.
We have also finished the digi-pack and advert. The pictures on both of them were drawn by Alex. The pictures are just of a wolf and a young lad to obviously represent the name of the band.."Peter and the Wolf" , which creates a great link.
Dont forget to give us feedback mateys :)
lots of love..
Rache, Mike and Liv xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
