Album Covers

Today we had Miss Kay and we looked at different album covers from different genres and the album cover i chose to look at is "The Black Album" from Metallica.
This album is made by American heavy metal band Metallica in 1991 and is still a popular album with classic songs such as "Enter Sandman and Nothing Else Matters." The Snake on the album cover is a symbol of a flag that was made for the American Revolution during the Boston Tea Party.


The reason that Metallica has put a the snake on their album is because that there is a song on the album called "Don't Tread on Me" which links to the poster above.

I believe that it is a effective album cover as the album is called "Metallica" or "The Black Album" and the colour of the album is black. The target audience is mainly people who are in the Heavy Metal scene so those who listen to Led Zeppelin, Queen and Guns N Roses.

Editing

On the 22nd September we went in to the studio to do some messing about with the cameras and look a the new and old equipment that we will be using to make our music video. We also used the green screen which we would use later on while we edited our little clips. On the 4th October we began editing the clips that we had put together and we learned abit more about the lighting on camera as when we were filming the lighting was good, but when we imported the clips they came out darker, so we have to be aware of that when it comes to actually putting our music video together.

We continued on the 6th October by adding the pictures on to the green screen that i was dancing infront of and adding text in to the video. im glad we done this because i am a bit rusty seeing as i havent used it for a couple of months and now my mind is refreshed with this knowledge of final cut pro........i can't wait till we start our music video
