Welcome

Hello, im Samuel Boden and welcome to my A2 coursework blog!

Please start at the last page of this site as it is the closest to the beginning of my course and work your way to this here front page. If you wish to see the individual sections rather than chronological order, there should be a tag selection to the right of this post.

 I hope you enjoy browsing the work iv done over this past year.

Main task- Music video progression

Here are the notes I made as I progressed throughout my A2 course on each stage in  chronological order hope you enjoy seeing the steady progress:

Note 1 - Filming test
Note 2 - Filming in town
Note 3 - Editing first scenes
Note 4 - Filming at school, Queen's park and town (continued)
Note 5 - Editing 2
Note 6 - Filming at abandoned warehouse and school
Note 7 - Editing final scenes

Main task- CD cover design and ancillaries

Main task- location shots




This first shot was of the abandoned warehouse building that took a minor place in our music video and a major role in our AS Thriller we figured it was an appropriate setting due to its run down appearance as it linked perfectly to the poor man narrative of our music video and as its a familiar location we know the layout of the area well so this works in our advantage for more efficient filming.

                                               Second was the bandstand in chesterfield town park behind the old leisure centre "Queens Park" Here we took multiple shots for stop motion and 20 short second shots, we used this location due to its graffiti riddled interior which suited our theme.

 Here we shot a large majority of our chorus's especially towards the end of the video being easily accessible and complete with a derelict "rough" look. 
Further down this alley is also where the balaclava and bottle scenes took place.



Here is where the main chorus scene and the jump scene took place chose specifically because of the graffiti to give it the needed run down look. 


Finally is outside the Chesterfield Weatherspoons used during the "fired scene".
I did also additionally film at my house although I would not want to release and image of it to the internet to public access for safety reasons.
