Thinking of a title.

I've wrote down a few titles I could use for my project, this is important because I want to show evidence that I can create titles and credits on the film.

• Playing My Guitar.
• Guitar Playing.
• Setting Up a Guitar.
• Ready to Rock.
• Let's Play Some Music.
• Plug It In, Baby.
• A Real Guitar Hero.

Project angles.

Haven't been able to get a camera out yet, so I'm going to stick with taking some still photos of the different angles that I could have.

(For some reason the images are in reverse order.)

(1) This is an angle of the 'Power' button on the amp, so I would film this as someone presses it to turn it on. I think this is a better angle compared to (2) because the composition of the shot makes sense when it comes to the next clip as it will have a noticable switch. Which is shown in (3) the angle has changed for this one and will fit nicely transitioning from the last clip. This is a still of the 'Input' button, which I will be filming the lead going into - See (4) & (5) - I'm not too sure how close I want the camera to be for the shot of the lead going in, but I'm leaning more towards the shot where the camera is closer. (6) is a photo I took of the amp, I wanted to see if a full shot of the amp would make an impact on the film, as I could have some sound coming out of the amp at this point, but I'll see how it goes and if I have enough time in the 10 seconds for it.

(7) This is a still of someone turning the volume up on the amp, again the same as 6 I will see if it fits in. (8) is just a quick photo I took of me playing the guitar to see what that specific angle would look like.

(9) shows the angle I would like to have for when the lead is being plugged into the guitar, I may straighten up the plug into the middle for when I film. (10) & (11) show two angles of which I could use for when I'm playing the guitar, although after taking the photos I'm thinking I might have to show it from the other side because when my hand comes into view it may block up some of the camera space.

Guitar sounds good.

Right, I decided on the theme of 'Plugging in guitar and playing', so I just need to think of which stages I'm going to produce and how I'm going to produce them.

What I want to do is have some very close up shots of the parts I'm going to use, I don't want to have it as a full straight record (ie, film someone plugging it in and then moving to the guitar), but rather have it as a series of short clips that I can put together, this will not only create a more stylistic approach to the video, but will help with the fact that it will require edditing, which is helpful in the fact that I will have shown evidence I've learnt how to edit videos and will allow me to make the video 10 seconds more easily.

Our breif explains that we should think about a soundtrack or audio track for the clip, so obviously my clip would contain the noises the amp is making when the guitar is being plugged in, there will be a natural hum that it produces when nothing is happening and when the lead is plugged in this will give off a certain noise, so there'll be no need for an overlaying audio track, but rather just the sounds that are recorded when the filming takes place.

I will take some pictures soon at different angles to create a sort of experimental storyboard.
