on this date we filmed our story line shots, the setting was coombe girls school where we used classrooms, corridors and playground. we needed this setting as our story line was is based in a school environment. we filmed a lot that day and had some great shots, shots included characters of our story.

we went to kingston where we found a great car park for scenery, we used this car park to film our performance shots of main singer harris. this went really well, we took very good shots that we included in our final cut. one major issue when filing was the weather, weather was very windy and the sun came in and out, we noticed this when importing our clips. the wind made us very cold whilst filming and we found it hard to use the camera free hand.

unfortunately our school department had burglars, where they stole our macs and cameras, this was devastating. all our work was lost and we had to start again. luckily we had an extension so we did have a little more time to do our work, however during the weeks of not having computers we had no cameras as well, this meant us not having a lot of time to film our final pieces.

rihanna website analysis

Rhianna's fan website is set in strong feminine colors, its mixed with shades of dark purple, dark pink and black. this reflects her attitude and personality to her music.

her homepage is filled is filled with text and pictures. the navigation bar gives you a lot of options to browse through her website such as 'Rhianna' that gives facts about her self and there's a blog that you can follow to see what shes up to live. 'latest news' where you can receive information about new albums or concerts and events. there are loads more links on the navigation bar to click. Rhianna's website is a very good example of a artist's website. she keeps in a very close relationship with her fans.

website research chipmunk

i have chosen to research chipmunks website. his website is very simple and short, there is no navigation bar to navigate yourself to other pages, there is only a home page however it does give you options to buy chipmunk merchandise and to become a fan of chipmunk where you would have to make an account to log in and receive exclusive special offers on merchandise and exclusive events. there is chipmunks latest video on his homepage just like every other artist websites.

in my opinion this is not a very good website for fans, it doesn't enable fans to engage with their artist. having products like this as an known artist could loose your fans.

website research angel

The first website i have chosen to research is the artist i have chosen to re make one of his song. Angel is getting more and more famous after every song he makes.

for his website, his homepage has his logo and his famous catch phrase 'this is angel' this is printed and the front of the page, just under it, it has his latest video that plays as soon as you click into his page. if you scroll down , you can find latest pictures and videos that angel his took himself, this is a very good way with interacting with your fans, letting them know you keep in touch.

The navigation bar includes the headings home, news, music, live, gallery. this is like most artist websites where you can check their music, attend concerts, check personal pictures and find out latest news about your artist.
