We created this schedule to ensure that we were all present when we were needed, that we knew exactly what we were doing so we were always prepared, and to make sure that that we had enough time to complete the entire production.


Construction- Structure for the Music Video

The timeline for the music video shows us exactly what scenes will be filmed, presenting what action and stating what shot will be used to convey the action.

Planning- Poster

This draft of the poster for the media product includes the house style, black and red colours, the main image of red lips runs throughout the media products and represents the sexuality of our production. I have included the band name 'Sweet', the album title 'Seduction', the release date of the album aswell as the website address for the band.

Planning- Digipak

This image presents the overall view of our initial plan of our digipak before it was digitalised using photoshop, the front cover, back cover (including trach list) and the inside behind the CD and the front cover.

The front cover includes the band title 'Sweet', the colours chosen are the house colours for the band; black and red.


The inside of the front cover is similar to the front and back cover, including various bright colours to include the conventions of the original colours of Rihanna's Rude Boy video, making the silhouette images stand out.


Behind the CD includes the house style, with a large 'S' representing the bands name.


The back cover presents a mirror image of the front cover, including the same image and house colours, it also includes the track list and the music company and details at the bottom left.


Planning- Branding

This image presents the branding  for our project, the various images and styles for the bands name present the image we have taken for the project; sexual and female dominated.

Planning- Storyboard

The storyboard is a rough plan of how the video's narrative will run, including the various shots which will be used to create the story of the video.
