light times

Here are the light times for the next 7 days, this is relevant because I now know how much time I have each day before it goes dark.

Last Week

Over the past week I was planning to start my filming but complications arose meaning I was unable to start, my actor was unavailable for the weekdays and weekends didnt favour me either due to work and other activities, I now however have a more solid idea of when I will start and it is more likely to be next weekend. What I have done to fill the time is figure out how to use the video function on my camera so I can now shoot in high definition as I've only just had it and I barely knew how to use it. Additionally, I have had the OK on filming the Aston Martin and in whatever location I want so this impacts my video greatly so choosing the right location for this scene will be key in making my video look good. I am also going to post daylight times so I know the amount of time I have in the day before it goes dark.

My CD cover ninth draft

This is my final CD cover. Looking down the list you can see how it has progressed and developed into something far more professional, unique and target approved. I've asked some people in my class to comment on it and any other comments.

Mr Briggs: I've seen CD similar to this in the shops, it looks good, any more similar to the original CD cover however and I'd fear it's copying. However I like its overall style and I think you should reflect this scheme in the other parts of the product

Lee: It's definatley an improvement, the last cover just looked as if it was lacking something but this completes it more than you think. Now I'd just put the other information on that you would find on a conventional CD such as the copyright small print.

Brad: Yes I agree with Lee. The improvement looks much better and even I like it. I also like the grey accent around the outside of the "Eminem" title it just gives that little bit extra.

My CD cover eighth draft

I think this draft is very close to my final CD cover. The dark background colour compliments the rest of the CD's furnishings. In contrast to the others, it looks more professional and I also think it has a more effective and relevant scheme. My class peers also agree and also say it looks better with the darker inner circle which represents the CD's hole.

My CD cover seventh draft

Copying an older file I looked at its design and realise that the title would still have to be centre point on the CD but instead of bevelling it outwards why not inwards. This I think makes it look more integral and realistic and others agreed. However it was still to plain for me. So I looked back at some other covers I've researched for inspiration and I found that the best looking one had a darker background and lighter features. For now though I have kept the black lines and added the grey background which makes it look much better but I think it could do with being darker and I may start experimenting with colours more.

My CD cover sixth draft

However after this, the same individuals within my class pointed out that the horizontal and vertical lines made it look unfinished and under construction, so I took them off and I think it looks if anything even worse now. I need to go back to my original idea.

My CD cover fifth draft

This was just a test to see how the title would look differently positioned. Although some people said they liked this is said I disliked the idea and the development of the CD cover had gone backwards.
