Media Song..

This is our final music song.. 

We recorded it in the music studio, and with a little bit of editing and mixing, and with help from the music technician, we have a final song! (: 

Overview & Plans..

Over this week, we have started our storyboard and script and we have almost finished our music.

Next week, we are hoping to finish the storyboard and scan it onto the computer to hopefully make an imovi of it, or a Prezi. Also, we would like to finish our scripting.
We have asked our actors/actresses to have their pictures taken on Monday, so we can show our casting.
We have booked the music studio for Monday as well, so we can record the bass guitar and vocals. Then we can edit it, and it should be ready sometime next week. Whilst we are in the studio, we are going to hopefully film our 'band shot', which will show our drummer, guitarist and singer to put in our opening sequence.

Music Lyrics..

These are the lyrics that we made up for our song. We think that they relate to the story of the film ;


'Cos I want you to know that I'm not who you see,
And I want you to know I'm not here for being me.
'Cos I want you to see that you're not who you want,
Taking a change, acting a line, It's all you see when you've come this far.


All you see when you look at me in the mirror you're looking at me,
All I see when I look at you I see you for you are not who you want to be


Take the time, to make people see through all the lies


Looking around now can't you see, all these things we're meant to be,


All this time I see you for who you are not who you want,
It's such a shame that you've come so far to see me.

More Music Development..

This is our latest recording of our music; We managed to book the school music studio after school so we could include the drums this time, with the help from our friend (Conor). Later on in the week, we recorded the drums and guitar in the music studio, and we're in the process of editing it. Hopefully next week we will have the bass guitar and the vocals recorded too so our song will be complete.

Music Development..

In our media lesson, we took a guitar, sat in an empty room and finalised the chords for our song. You can faintly hear our vocalist, as at this stage, we were trying to create a melody.

Music Ideas..

We wanted to record our own music for our opening sequence. We thought that because we can play instruments and we have friend who can help, we should try and think of something ourselves. (I play the guitar, Chloe sings, and our friend Conor plays the drums). We played around with some chords and started to come up with something which we feel suits our idea.
This is a video of the chords that we would like to use.

Opening Sequence Ideas

After changing our synopsis, in order to make our story less cliche, we came up with an outline of what we wanted our opening sequence to look like. From the start we liked the idea of using a yearbook because it's creative. After much discussion, we have come up with a rough final idea....

1. We will open the sequence with an aerial shot of the front of the yearbook, presenting the title of our film and our production company name. Our own music that we have composed will be played whilst this is happening and it will carry on throughout.
2. Then, our geek character will open the first page which will include credits, and pictures, which the geek will stick down. (Like he is creating the book).
3. The pages will then be turned over, introducing the different stereotypes in the school with a voiceover of the geek expressing his thoughts towards these groups of people.
4. The first three pages, will be showing pictures of the dancer, the actor, and the band, which we will zoom into these photos and switch to a short clip of them.
5. After those three, we will show the other stereotypes with short clips overlapping each other, getting faster and faster, to emphasise how many different 'cliques' there are. They will get faster and faster to give the impression that he is flicking through the book really fast.
6. Then it will come to a sudden stop, and a picture of the geek will be shown. Then the voiceover will help lead into the film..
