Editing the Back cover of the digipak

Firstly I removed the green screen from Sheece's picture and positioned it on the yellow background. After colour grading the image, I made three copies of the layer. The four layers were named and labelled with colours as shown in the picture.

 For the layers that were marked with colours, only one channel colour was switched on in the blending mode (according to the colour they were labelled with).




 After this, each layer, except for the original layer, was slightly distorted by using the 'Shear effect'. This enabled the channel colours to be visible.

 

All these layers were then grouped and the group was duplicated. 


Using the rectangular marque tool, rectangles were made in the duplicated group, and by pressing 'control' and 'backspace' the rectangles were masked out to reveal the grouped layer underneath.


 A copy of the original image was made and brought on top of all the layers and half of it was masked out. 


Scale lines were then added on top of the picture and an opaque blue polygon was created on the right-hand side. Lastly, a rectangular bar, copyright statement, bar code, signature of the artist and tracklist were added.

SCREENING

Once the music video was finally made, I was dying to see the audience reaction. Not just online but in real life too! The feedback I got was very positive and gratifying. The best part was showing the music video to the actors, who were amazed by the edited version of the clips they remembered shooting.

Shooting (Day 3)

Today we had to shoot the police car and dinky scenes. No matter how much you plan a shoot, some problems may inevitably rise. Today I had to deal with two unfortunate situations and make quick decisions. I had cut the letters in the word 'POLICE' out from black chart papers and pasted them on the 'police car'. However, while moving the car from one location to another, the letter 'O' fell off the car. A friend went in his car back the same route to find the cut-out but he couldn't. Subsequently, I decided to remove all the letters from the car and carry on with the shot to prevent wasting further time and decided to add an animated title during editing.  Another problem that I faced was due to the fact that I was swept away in taking care of other stuff and I forgot to double check the costume of my actor, Sheece.  We carried out the scene in which a police officer arrests him. Afterwards, I realized that he had worn a hat which he wasn...
