Creating the website


We used the website 'Wix' 

Below is a screen shot of the website. The website allowed us to choose the correct category we would like our website to be about. We chose music, and then 'solo artist'. This screen shot shows that it allows us to pick the template of the website that we would like. 


Below are screen shots of a rough edit of our website. We chose this picture of the main actor because I believe it will give an impression to the audience that the song highlights her isolation and loneliness. 




We plan to take photos of Jazz which we can also put on our website. This is because the picture we used in our rough edit of the website is a shot from our production. We aim to get professional looking photos of Jazz on her own to show her isolation or playing an instrument.

Editing the colour

Colour plays a large role in video or film making. This is because the specific colour will help to set the scene of the production and the tone of the mood. An example of this could be using warm colours in a happy scene. However, if you are editing a horror film then you should use darker colours and reduce the saturation.

Below is a video showing the effects colour treatment has on films and videos:


When we began to edit our different shots, we felt that the colour of the sequence was very important. This is because the colour can help set the scene and emphasise the feelings which we would like to imply to the audience. In our sequence, we began to reduce the saturation and brightness so that the colours looked colder and darker. This will emphasise the negative feelings within the music video to show the characters isolation. Towards the end of the production we will plan on slowly increasing the saturation as the sequence goes on. This is because towards the end of the music video it shows the main character becoming less isolated.
