Whats going on this year
So this is my blog, its going to full of information about whats going on with me as i try to make my way thorugh my final year in Nottingham. It will include details of my PRP and of my client project, but its also going to be a little bit fun!! Enjoy xx
Personal Research Project
This is an individual research project, aka - my PRP. During the course of the year i will be studying the subject of VOYOUISM. Looking into how it is used across the different mediums and how it effects our society in the way it is portrayed through the media, paying particular interest into the music video industory.
Client Project
For this i will be creating Compound. Along with my two team mates, James and Huw we will be establishing a media production company and tackling the challenges that it throws up along the way, you've guessed it, its called compound!

COMPOUND business propsal
well compound is now back on track!! over christmas it became apparent that we had to create a business plan for the company and that we really needed to be spending more time on it! so i started doing some research into what a business plan should look like and the sort of things we would need to included. James was putting together some footage that we had all filmed for compound over the last few months aswell.
we made some rough drafts of the proposal but really struggeled, i guess this is why we are media students and not business students! so after about 9 solid hours at the computer we all gave it everything we had and the result was actually pretty good! we ended up having about 13 pages, Huw then made it 'look sexy' as he likes to call it! we branded the work and burnt the DVD of our work examples and thats it! proposal compleate!

PRP is FINALLY over!!!!!
so, term ended back in december and i went back to wonderfull Cambridge for christmas, was really good to be home and have a change of sceanery, even if was just the fact that i sat at a different desk to do my PRP!!
so christmas as far as PRP was concerned was all about the finishing touches. i had read all of my books, got my quotes, searched my website and it was all inside my computer, it was now time to organise it!
first of all i had to create a neavigation system, up until this point all of my work was in word files and videos just scattered around in different folders. after trying out front page and dreamweiver and flash i decided that i need something alot more basic and opted for using powerpoint. it was actually really good, it allowed me to layer up my images, create hyperlinks for my different articals and also allowed the use of video.
i also had to produce my prototype over this period. i had been collecting ideas and images throughout the project so i decided to just open up after effects and take inspiration as it came to me. i ended up creating a montage of images that related to all of the areas within voyeurism and my project, i then added some dramatic music and there it was, i had my music video. i was really pleased with the result.
so the project was finally over, i burnt it onto a DVD, had a few problems with the links, so fixed them, burnt it again and handed it in.
i thought the day would never come, but i am so so so happy with the project, looking back i have really enjoyed it and have also learnt so much, so now its onto the evaluation stage, and maybe i can reclaim some of my social life for a little while!!!
