video production planning

Today I have been spilt into a group for my video production.  Next I had to collect all of the key skills from my group that would be helpful and useful for my video production. The key skills was editing, acting., rapping and singing. The two people which are in my group is Elliot and Pelle. The props that have been discussed to use is a mask because it would be a useful prop to use. This would work well in the advert because it would make the advert more freaky and slightly more creepy. I had to get the key skills because it would help when coming to don the advert as a group, as everyone in my group would pay a part in the video advert.

Research
The three main adverts that I looked at, that was freaky was Metz- Judder man, Zombies- Phone 4 u and baby doll- Sony PlayStation. I also found a Cadbury Gorilla Advert. I found this advert quite creepy because of the way the Gorilla just stays still before playing the drums. The eye movements on the gorilla are very slow slowing that it is slightly freaky.

1)   Metz- Judderman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TUOPeNJCK8

This advert is freaky because of the colours used. I found this freaky because the way the puppet walks across the stage and turns into a man. The advert is advertising some sort of Metz alcohol. The colours used in the advert is quite dull and horror like. This grabs the attention because it shows that the advert could be haunted by the colour arrangements. The scariest part of the advert for me would be the ending part with the realistic man turning back into a puppet. This is because it seems as though the puppet was a real person al along which adds the effects of freakiness. The advert starts off with a puppet show but then turns into real people before returning to the main freakiness of the puppets. The music in this advert is more of a minor key. This shows that it is a freaky advert from the slow creepy tempo and minor key of the music.

2) Zombie- Phones4U

This advert is advertising Phones4u. This is a freaky advert because of the Zombie that appears at the end of the advert. The colours used in the advert is a misty colour. This adds the effect that it is a haunted advert instead of a freaky advert. It uses a Zombie to make the advert more freaky. There isn't really music sound because most of the advert is screaming or talking. Towards the end of the advert the zombie starts talking about the phone as if it is a bad thing. This creeps me out a little because a zombie wouldn't normally say that sort of thing especially in an advert.




3)  Baby Doll, Sony PlayStation

This advert is advertising a PlayStation. To be precise playstation3 . This advert is freaky because of the way the baby doll speaks in different ways. It shows that it wants the PlayStation badly. The music is more of an alien sound. IT feels as though it is a non-diegetic sound. The tempo for this advert is slow but fast. It is both because the way the doll stares at the PlayStation. The part where the doll has fire and cries at the same time with going in and out of the eyes scares me. This is because it is trying to express the fact that the baby would like the play station but cannot have it. It seems as though the baby doll has come from outer space with the different types of noises.
