Completed in one day...
After recording this we went on edited it, luckily the recording we made did not involve any editing. The only thing that was left to do was to import the music, we did this by putting the music from the computer on to a memory stick and up loading it to the apple mac. We then cropped the music to the length of the radio.
We listened to it back and we were really please with it conformed to our brief perfectly and also reflected our initial idea of creating a cheesy typical radio advert :).

Editing The Female Advert
For the female advert we used similiar shots to the male advert, these including , close up, mid shot, extreme close up and low angle shot. We used these because like when researching for the male perfume adverts we found the same conventional shots are used for female products. They are used frequently throughout the advert because it makes the audience focus on the product and the character.
We had slow music to this advert and editing our shots so they were slowly paced with the music. The advert is based on waking up in the morning and making youself look glamourous and adding the final touch at the end the perfume. Targeted at females we felt it was right to edit it to a slow pace and the women could take it what is happening in the advert and have to watch it all to understand what is being advertised, as th emise en scene contains many female products such as shoes and make up etc. As we edited it to a slow pace, the continutity of the advert had toflows perfectly so this took us a while to cut each shot so that it linked to the next with out it jumping. We also had to change the pace of some of the shots by useing the the speed tool to make some shots as fast as the next so that each shots leads onto the next. This creates the impresion out advert is telling a story making it differs from our male advert which is fast pace editing and random shots of only about 2 seconds throught the advert :)

Editing The Male Advert
We used many shots when filming the male advert, these including high angle shot, close up, mid shot, low angle shot. We used these because when researching perfume adverts these were used so we stuck to conventions. They are used frequently throughout the advert because it makes the audience focus on the product and the character.
When it came to editing this piece it was a long process as on our story we had alot of short snapy clips, but in some ways it was easier than the female advert because there was not as much continuity involved...
We began by refering to our story bord and dragging each clip into order acording to that so that every would be easy to put together once we had cropped all of the clips. We also added text to break the clips up a bit such as " DARE TO PLAY"
Working things out...
Reverse Shots:
When we had the idea of reversing the shots we realised that this was somthing we had not done before so we had to experiment. We worked out that to reverse shot we had to copy the shot we wanted to reverse, then right click and selcet reverse shot, simple :) we used this twice on our advert; firstly on the low angle shot of the cards being thrown towards the camera, then again on the shot where the poker chips are dropped into the frame.
We wanted to create the fast paced edit effect like on the paco rabanne advert and to achieve this we had really upbeat music which we then fitted our shots into. The shots are literally a two seconds each and the varied shots and angles on the camera we used made our advert look effective and ended up just how we planned :)

Improvements To Make & Finally Videos Of Our Practical!
After the feedback we received from our peers and teachers we have listed the changes we are going to make to our tasks to improve them and hopefully come out with the best grade possible:
Male Advert: Add voiceover "Amo Tu Vida" at the end ( we did want to do this but didn't have enough time)
Female Advert: "Amo Tu Vida" at the end ( we did want to do this but didn't have enough time) try and change the font at the end to something more classy, but this proved difficult to do when I tried to on my practical last year!
Sponsorship: Add shots of Minty spraying the perfume on her, and edit the images that contain the lipstick as it could be perceived as advertising make up.
Radio: We didnt have any feedback on this, but we are pretty pleased with how it sounds so won't be making any changes, if we do make any we will blog what we have changed and why :)
I have finally managaged to add videos of our media to youtube although because it wouldnt regonise the file i had to chnage it on a strange website which is why there is writing across the video this isnt normally here! It did take me hourssss and hours to work out how to do this btw!

Things That Didnt Go To Plan...
Our practical is now looking pretty good :) however some changes have been made from our storyboard...
1. We couldn't use Araminta as she was always unavailable when we needed to film, so we used Eve Chesterton which we were really grateful for as we know she had a lot of pressure to complete her media for the deadline to!
2. We also didn't use the male we intended to use, Kyle is Mintys boyfriend but when we needed to film they were having a bad patch so we decided to use Jamie Hives or Liam Richards, we took them both filming to see who would fit best into the genre of the advert and decided to use them both instead, we have made a storyboard of this which we have uploaded to the updated storyboard post!
3. It isn't shown on the updated storyboard but we added text clips in between clips. They said Dare To Play. We added them in to break up the quick shots.
4. Knowing how hard it was to get the characters when we needed them, to get 2 characters at the same time would of have been literally impossible and therefore we completely changed our storyboard for the sponsorship so it meant that we didn't have to rely on other people. So to make up for this we paid close attention to detail within the mise en sccene.

Solving The Problem..
Because we can not use the some of shots from our last filming sesion we have planed to complete this on monday 16th and we will also take this opportunity to do some practice shots of the sponsership advert.
Editing
After doing our filming we thought everything had ran smoothly, unfortunatly not.
We connected the camera to the mac and inported our filming, we realised that we had not quite wound all the way foward to the right point of the tape so the first shots were not use able other than that every thing was fine.
We had a fade effect on all of our shots which you can not turn of so we started by cutting all of them out of the shots then where we have repated the some shots and selected the best then deleted the others.
That was as far as we got in this lesson but we plan to complete the advert on our next practical lesson.
