Final DVD Cover
Our final DVD cover shows the logo font that we selected with pictures on location and also added pictures of each member through their live performances.
Final Poster
This is our final poster that we made for the band in order to promote them. We ensured that we used the same text in the poster as we did on the DVD cover as a logo to symbolise the band.

The First Draft of our Narrative
After the shoot, we transferred all the footage onto the school computer, and I also decided to copy the footage to try and edit some of the video at home.
I decided to do a rough edit of the narrative to show the others in my group to see if it was something that they could see was working and going in the right direction. I uploaded the video to YouTube so that friends could also see it and give their feedback on it.
This video was the first draft and shows the point of view from the guy. We decided that the narrative didn't make much sense, so we looked at other ways of improving this.

Day of Filming
On the day of filming, we contacted all actors to remind them of meeting times and I also contacted Kerrin to confirm where we were meeting. Jamie and Paige were unable to make the shoot so we made sure we informed them of what we were doing beforehand.
I picked up Chelsea, Connor, Sarah and Josh from Stilton and brought them to my house where I met Kerrin and Claire. We ran through what we them to do and how they should act through each scene, and then got them sorted in costumes and arranged our mise-en-scene.
We then started filming, beginning at the start with the affectionate relationship between the two as they're seen laughing and having fun with each other. We then used an over the shoulder camera shot to get a view of Chelsea opening a note saying 'I love you', to clarify the connection between the couple.
We then got the couple to change outfits and move to the hallway where we had them arguing with each other and the male storm out the door and down the street. Following this we got the female to chase after him trying to get him to come back, however he just brushes her off and moves on. From here we change locations again to a party where the male turns up and dances with his friends showing him having fun without his girlfriend. However she then turns up to the party, but instead of reacting the male simply walks pasts her out the door with his friends showing that he has moved on.
To begin with we filmed from the females perspective, however we then decided that as our band were an all male group that a male perspective may have more of an effect.
