Construction - Survey Monkey

Here i'm showing the survey monkey i created, as a group we decided to create a survey with the following questions as our aim was to find how well we interpreted the video, and if our target audience enjoyed our music video.

Planning - Organisation Within The Group

As a group to keep organised we had to make a calendar which worked around each others schedules as members of the group had part-time jobs to sustain and some members had sporting activities that they attended every week so that day was un available to film or get together to do work.  

Decision making
Decision making was a big factor in this whole project, we had troubles getting to a final decision, but we got to the end by doing some simple things. we all sat down as a group steam rolling what we had to do. We made a calendar and stuck to it as much as we could. this really helped with decision making as on our calendar we stated what we were doing on that perticular day.

Last year we struggled to keep organised and doing this for the second year we can clearly see the importance now. We made a calendar last year but the calendar lacked detail which made it difficult to know exactly what to do on those specific days. this then wasted a lot of time which led to cramming things in which wasn't good for the group.

Planning - Media Text Analysing

This cd cover hints at subtle messages, it shows the artist, Usher, on the cover with a computer generated image (CGI) as the background. This background conists of artistic images of water, and exotic plants, this can also be seen to show the artistic side of the artist as the background seems to run onto Ushers neck. Its tattoos of lips on his neck and this can hint at previous relationships or sexual encounters he has had in the past and therefore foreshadows songs on his album. The font shows the title of the single and the album with his name, the font also looks unprofessional and more like ushers handwriting, giving a more personal feel to his album rather than being very distant and impersonal. This in turn brings life to the album making it seem like he has a close connection with the songs in this album and therefore giving a glimpse of what the album has to offer. This image of one night stands and a hard persona is further implied through ushers image of himself, here he has kept his facial hair and this can also imply another side that fans have not seen, a rugged, hard, playboy figure.

Planning - Calendar

  We created a calendar so that we would be able to stay organised and stay on top of things. It also stopped us from double booking for example before we created the calendar they were days when we wanted to film, but when it came to the day we would realise that someone in the group was busy that day. Which wasted a lot of time. 

  We also made the calendar open to everyone i the group so when someone new they would be busy one day, the could write it in the calendar to keep everyone in the group updated.

  Here is a screen shots of our calendar, which shows days when we were filming in GREEN, and days when members of the group were busy so we would be unable to film in BLUE. 

Here is a screen shot of what one of the days includes. In this shot you are able to see what is happening this particular day, the venue,what Fred needs to wear that day, and then what time it starts and finishes.

Planning - Lyrics used as a narrative

These are the lyrics to our song, this is used to guide the narrative of the music video, this was our guidelines of the music video which helped us create the narrative and complete the story. It also played a vital part within the editing as, the three paragraphs in the lyrics is split through different scenes.
Here below are the lyrics of the music video.

"Same Girl"

[R. Kelly]
Yo Ush..
[Usher]
What up Kells
[R. Kelly]
Wanna introduce you to this girl. Think I really love this girl.
[Usher]
Yeah...
[R. Kelly]
Man she's so fine.
[Usher]
Straight up dog...
[R. Kelly]
She stands about 5'4", Coca Cola, red bone
[Usher]
Damn...
[R. Kelly]
She drives a black Durango
License plate say Angel
Tattoo on her ankle
Plus she's making pesos.
Gotta crib on Peachtree,
Right on 17th street
And I call her Te Te.
[Usher]
Wait a minute hold on dog. Do she got a kid? [Yep]
She loves some waffle house? [Yep]
Do she got a beauty mark on the left side of her mouth? [Man]
Went to Georgia Tech? [Yep]
Works for TBS? [Yep]
Man I can't believe this shit. Damn!
[R. Kelly]
Tell me what's wrong dog what the hell you damnin' 'bout?
I'm your homie so just say what's on your mind.
[Usher]
Man I didn't know that you were talkin' 'bout her.
[R. Kelly]
So man you telling me you know her?
[Usher]
Do I know her? Like a pastor know his word.

[Chorus]
We messing with the same girl, the same girl.
[R. Kelly]
How could the love of my life and my potential wife be the same girl?
[Usher]
Man I can't believe that we've been messing with the same girl, the same girl.
[R. Kelly]
Thought she's someone I could trust
But she's been doubling up with us.
U, K, man we been messing with same girl.

[Usher]
See I met her at this party in ATLANTA!
[R. Kelly]
Well I met her at this party in CHICAGO!
[Usher]
She came right up to me giving me conversation.
I said, "Do you gotta a man?"
She said, "No," with no hesitation.
[R. Kelly]
Well, it must be a music thing 'cause she said the same to me.
At party all in my face while I'm laughing and buying her drinks
[Usher]
She whispered in my ear and said, "Can you take me home?"
[R. Kelly]
ME TOO! Man she was in the shower singing that same song
[Usher]
Is that true?
[R. Kelly]
And I thought it was true confessions when she said, "I love you."
[Usher]
Man I thought her body was calling when she said, "I want you."
Look I even got some pictures on my phone.
[R. Kelly]
Look at there. There she is with some boy shirts on.

[Chorus]
She's the apple of my eye and my potential wife.
Man I just can't believe that we've been messing around with the same damn girl.
Thought she was someone I could trust
But she's been doubling up with both of us.
U, K man we been messing with the same girl.

[Usher]
Said she got me on a ring tone
[R. Kelly]
Are you talking about the pink phone?
[Usher]
Uh uh the blue one
[R. Kelly]
Man she told me that was turned off.
[Usher]
It's obvious that she's been playing us, playing us.
[R. Kelly]
'Cause constantly she's been lying to us, lying to us.
[Usher]
Don't like the way that she's been going 'bout it, going 'bout it.
Kells what you think that we should do about it, do about it?
[R. Kelly]
Call her up at her home.
She won't know that I'm on the phone.
[Usher]
Yeah man that's the way.
[R. Kelly]
Homie we about to bust this trick.
Man just tell her to meet up with you
And I'm going to show up too
[Usher]
And she won't know what to do.
[R. Kelly]
We'll be standing there singing.
